NO GIVING OF LAND
 PLANNED BY FRANCE
Govt. Nails RuIlor Of Ceding
 Island to U. s. for Debt

Paris, Feb. 1.-The French eov-
 ernments policy, it was said at the
 foreign office today. remains stoutly opposed to the cession of any French
 territory. This expression was drawn
 out by the publication in the news
 paper Excelsior of para graph stat ing that it believed the United States would not reject the idea of cancolling the French debt in exchange for the French West Indies.
 The Excelsior's item. nevertheless, has revived discussion of the possibil- ity of an arrangement under which the war debt might be wiped out in exchange for French islands that might be useful to the United States. A number of the members of the French senate are favorable to this plan, it is declared. Significance is also attached here to the newspapers suggestion because of the fact that its owner, Paul Dupuy, recently re- turned from & visit to the United States in the course of which he saw a great many leading public men. It is remarked, likewise, that M. Du- puy would probably not have been inclined to launch the idea had he not known there was considerable support for it here.
 The project, however, in addition to being contrary to the policy of the present French government. a fact now reiterated, meets with objections from sentimental considerations. Mar unique, for instance, is regarded as quite as much a part of France as Paris. It is represented in parlia- ment on tho same footing and it's in- habitants enjoy all the advantages of French citizenship. Thus. it is heldt In official circles, this sentimental op- position to such deal would have to bn overcome before France could think seriously of it. although it is that there is support for 1t In important quarters, including an senatorial group.

EXPLAIN APPOINTMENT
Peer Named As Admiralty Lord in England Because His Selection Virtually Mas Forced.

Glasgow. Scotland. Feb. ii.--Ths reason for the appointment of the conservative peer, yiscount Chclms- ford as first lord of the admiralty was given by James Maaton, NJ. r, al a labor demonstration here last night as simply because the sea lords re- fused 10 work under the labor goN- ernmem unless the head or tho ad- miralty was a man suitable 10 them.
 Had he been premier, MaAton said. he would have told tho sea lords: This is mutinw; this is a strike. There is the street--Go.'
 Labor, he added. would be able to carry on as big a navy as the country needed without them. The methods the Tories used in handling the strikes of the railway men and lockers arc good enough for tho la- bor government to use in handling striking admirals."
