When asked concerning the possible
sale of the Georgetown and Tenley-

Mr.. Ham said that he had not heard

that IL Capital Traction Co. wanted
tho line they could get II.
It is not known whether officials
of the Capital Traction Co. have given
any thought to the proposition of
acquiring the Wisconsin avenue line.
It was said today that people living
in the Wisconsin avenue territory and
in nearby Maryland are keenly in
rerested in the question of transpor-
tation and IL is expected the tentative
proposals mentioned by Maj. Covell
today will have the effect of bringing
forth expressions of opinion from the
residents on the several plans.
So far as could be learned today,
the proposal that the Capital Traction
take over the Wisconsin avenue line
is thus far based only on suggestion
made to Maj Covell by citizens.
Maj. Covell pointed out that a bus
line from Wisconsin avenue to Du-
pont Circle would afford a much more
rapid transit to the downtown section
than the present street car route. He
also pointed out that the substitution
Of husses for car tracks on Wisconsin
avenue would make that an attrac-
tive, wide thoroughfare and one OF
the main entrances to the city.

VIEWS ON WAR DEBTS
American Banker and Industrialist
Favor Payment on Fair
Terms.

By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
MILAN, December 19.-The Milan

ed in todays editions the first replies
TO the inquiry It made in America and
England on the problem of the inter-
allied debts.
Andrew Jay Frame, president of the
waukesha National Bank of Wauke-
sha, Wis. writes that "the task Of
discharging the debts under fair
terms of payment is not impossible
on condition that a wise internal pol
icy be adopted and prohigate spend
ing be stopped. All war parapher-
MALTA should be scrapped. Then con-
fidence and credit would be restored.
The Dawes p.sI should be adopted as
the most hopeful panacea.
Americans might charge no inter
est. or only a small one to their ored-
itors, for a number of years providing
the debtor nations showed their good
faith by adopting sane methods Of re-
construction"
Mr.. Fleming Of the Kansas City
Railway Co., states: America, on
account of her purely altruistic atti-
tude in entering the war, expects the
several European nations to meet
their obligations to her in manly, self
respecting way, within the limits of
the financial ability of each nation.
The period of payment should be ex-
tended over sufficient length Of time
to permit payment without undue
sacrifice"

Willett started his career as a bank
clerk, but in less than q year went
into the wool business, working for
Winslow Brothers & Smith Soon he
became interested in the possibilities
Of combining q leather business with
the wool business. and OF the felt
manufacturing industry. With both
ideas in mind, he managed to buy
into the American Felt Co., which at
that time owned the Daniel Green
Felt Shoe Co. and later took both into
his own hands.
Looking always for greater possi-
bilities he took on Edmond II. Sears
as a partner, and began to expand
the business.

Meanwhile he was constantly oc.
cupied in beneficent enterprises. He
founded hospital; he organised
housing associations to help his

the committee which rebuilt the Es-
sex golf course and spent $4,000 of
his own money on the project,
Then the crash threatened. For q
frantic two years he worked as few
men have ever labored to save the
companies he had worked to build.
Once. at the climax OF his hght, he
broke down completely and went
south for rest, emerging in 1890, q
much changed man.
Since then George Willett has been
more silent than before, an aereea Bile
but reserved person at all times. He
still thinks faster than he can talk
when he gets started on business, and
sometimes comes to o halt because
he cannot find words to- express his
ideas. But he has become q listener

The right of Representative La

held today by a House committee
which investigated election charges

plurality of 168. 1t also was decided
that Frank had failed to comply with
House requirements that all evidence
in an election contest must be filed
shortly after the election.
La Guardia was elected in 1922 as

sion he was active in the La Toilette

with almost anything short of murder.
They take their driving In the most
casual manner and seem to have no
realization of the harm they may do
with the powerful machines they
often handle. Girls, on the other
hand, take their job rather seriously.
The ordinary observer In the street
will notice this The expression on a

earnestness. Boys often go driving

manner that sooner or later spells
trouble for them and for their parents
as well.
The tribute the traffic cops pay to
the young girls is by no means q dis

gressed in a history making trial OF

bound up in the success of his suit
not so much, he often said, because
he wanted the money, for he had
learned to live in comparative
cause he would not "let any one cheat
him and get away with It," His
life, IL necessary, would be given to
winning justice from Robert r. Her
rick and the group of Boston bankers
who were responsible for his fall.
Then he became Ill.

Up to the day he was forced to his
bed. George Willett was the most
