DENIES DEBT DODGE
(By Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-Hints that France might be moving toward a disavowal of her war debt to the United States were repudiated internationally tonight by the French embassy after they had caused an maccusotomed holi- day season stir in Washington.
 Embassy officials reiterated the in- tention of their government to meet it's obligations, and declared the wide spread apprehension that suddenly en- volveloped the American capital today had been evolved from a set of circum- stances which in themselves had no in- ternational significance
 The incident apparently had it's gen. esis in the publicati tion of a new balance sheet by the French ministry of finance, in which all reference to the debt to the United States was omitted. This, the embassy declared was due simply to a provision of French law, which pre- vents inclusion of contemplated expendi- lures in the budget unless the exact amounts are known and specific ap- prOpriations are included to offset them. No settlement having been reached with the United States, it was added, no such item could be entered on a ledger which must balance down to the last entime.

CHINA EXECUTES 4S9 AS HOOTERS

 est Of Military Discipline
lRx Associated Press. )

PEKING, Dec. 29. Four hundred and eighty-nine looters and incendia- rists found with their loot in the railway station at Kalgan have been tried and executed, according to what purports to be an official report of the military chief of the Chahar district, made pub lie here today.
 The men were shot, it was stated, lin the interest of military discipline"
 Two regimental and three battalion officers admitted taking part in the mutiny and footing of December 16, the report said. Whether they were shot with the others was not made clear. The chief of staff at Kalgan, and other officers having only slight concern with the footing, it was declared, are being held for future disposition by the mili- tary court.
 In addition, the mutinous brigade has been ordered disbanded, and orders is- sued for apprehension of mutineers who fled and escaped capture. These will be dealt with in such a way as to give warning to others" the report said.

HUGHES PREDICTS
 WORLD COALITION 'OF SCIENTISTS
American Association Opens Annual Conven-
 tiOn In Washington
tRv Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-A new era of International cooperation in the scientific field" which cannot fail to add strength to tie influence which make for better understandings be- tween peoples" was forecast by Secre- tary Hughes, in an address tonight be- fore the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
 Mir. Hughes based his statement on reports which, he said, revealed that the United States, England, Japan, Aus tralia, Canada and several European countries had taken definite steps to encourage and support scientific lnves- tigations as well as to help create n- ternational scientific agencies. The set ting up of these new enterprises, the secretary said, naturally lead to ar arrangements for special international scientific conferences"
 "Thus we are at the treshhold of a new era&6f international cooperation in the scientific field,o Mir. Hughes said.
 Those outside of the scientific profes- sion, the secretary said, should make acknowledgement to scientists for the benefits of such "by-products" of scien- tists' labor.
 
 "We need your method in govern ment: we need it in lawmaking and in law administering" he told the scien- lists. We need your interest in knowledge for it's own sake," the self sacrificing ardor of your leaders; your ceaseless search for truth; your dis trust of phrases and catch words; your rejection of every plausible counterfeit; {; xrJilIin in fn 1icnQ r6 nIc- proved theory, however honored by tra- ditional while you jealously conserve every gain of the past against the mad cap assault; your quiet temper and, above all, your faith in humanity and your zeal to promote the social welfare.
 Ut is your work that points to the benefits of peaceful cooperation that are within our grasp. Science, it is true, forges the weapons of war and constantly develops new and more ter rible instruments of destruction. But she is far more eloquent as she points to the wastes of strife, the retarding of progress, and the vast opportunities that are open to industrious peoples if they are able to abandon their mutual fears and destroy the artificial barriers to community of enterprise"
 Sir Esme Speaks
 While Secretary Hughes was speak ing, the British ambassador, Sir. Esme Howard, addressed a separate meeting of the American Political Science asso- citation and affiliated organization. Sir Esme, speaking on British policy and the balance of power," urged a spirit of friendly understanding of the posi- tion of England in world politics.
 The opening meeting of the Ameri- can association was held in Continental Memorial hall and was presided over by Dr. J. McKeen Cattell, president of the association.
