the fatalities here not only for the
four weeks ended September u, but
for the entire period from August II
to date.
If there are no more deaths from
automobiles here during the remaining
two days Of this month, IL was pointed
out, September, 1925, would be marked
down as having the fewest deaths
from automobiles here during any
month since 1923. This is considered
al the more remarkable in view OF the
fact that there are 27 per cent more
automobiles on the streets Of Wash
ingtOn than this time last year.

HUNTINGTON WILSON WE'D
Former Undersecretary of State
Married to Miss Hope Butler.

PARIS, September % P).-Friends
here learned today Of the marriage Of
Huntington Wilson, former American
Undersecretary of State, to Miss Hope
Butler, niece of Charles Butler of New
York, which occurred at Zurich
Switzerland on September /.
The couple are spending their
honeymoon in Italy. Mr.. Wilson was

And then graduated down to an
average of S11 ,000, 900 year for four
years and about S5,000,000 annually
thereafter until 1949.
Answer for BOrah.
These figures are important because
Senator Borah, chairman of the Sen
ate foreign relations committee, has
written Secretary Mellon asking why
it is that the French government can
pay American private bankers interest
rates running up to IN per cent and
the American Government cannot get
even 312 per cent interest. The French
are ready to answer Senator Borah.
They point out that 1t is one thing to
pay 7k per cent or thereabouts on a
loan of S40O, ,000, 900 and quite another
thing to be asked to pay 31a per cent
on a loan running over S4,000,000, 900.
Also the French nowadays can expect
no further cash advances from the
American Government, as the Wash
ington administration has gone out of
the lending business, and it is there
fore a question Of paying whatever
interest rate American bankers think
they can persuade the American in
vesting public to accept.
The negotiations, in a sense, are
in deadlock, but there is plenty of op-
portunity for both sides to yield.
Whether each will yield sufficiently
to bring about a settlement is doubt
full. Whatever comes 1t will not be
a break or rupture. 1t will be either
a detailed settlement and signed
agreement, or else an understand
ing" which is the technical term ap-
piled to the result of the Churchill
Caillaux negotiations. Then another
conference between Britain and
France may ensue and finally another
examination of the whole problem
between America and France a few
months hence.
