NEW ELECTION ASKED.
Foes Plan Campaign TO Force Brown.
low from Office.

KNOXVILLE. Tenn. March -
tSpeciaD.-It will take another recall
election in Knoxville 10 dethrone City
Manager Louis Brownlow and the
administrative machinery he has set
up.
The recallers threaten to institute
another election for enough other
councilmen to enable them to con-
troll but it is predicted by leading
citizens here that Knoxville will not
have the patience TO tolerate the tur-
MOL of another attempt. Foiled In
their attempt to get Browrlow,' the
recallers say they will introduce their
measures in the council and thus put
the ma ajority on record as being
against them. They say they will
introduce an ordinance to reduce
Brownlow's salary from $4,000 TO
$40 900 and use such other forms Of
hara ssment as they hope will force
him to leave.
The city manager government has
levied taxes sufficient to enable the
government to pay as 1t goes. instead
Of having great overdrafts at the end
of each fiscal year. as preceding gov
ernments have had. In this way the
city's bonded debt has mounted high.
thus requiring great sums of money
to keep interest paid and to retire
bonds that mature.
MIR. Brownlow has issued state
ment denying the printed declara-
ton that the city's indebtedness has
increased $4,000. 900 since he became
manager.
THE statement that the city's debt
has increased $4,000 900 is grave
error" he declared.
The net increase in the debt OF
Knoxville during my administration
has been approximately $3.00O,000 in
bonds ed by the people for school
and water works purposes. The net
debt is now $11 900 900.

icy was defended here last night by
Secretary Mellon shortly after it had
been attacked in the British House of
Commons by Winston Churchill, char
cellor of the exchequer. and Phillip
Snowden, laborite/ and former chan.
cellor.
While Secretary Mellon. who spoke
before the Union League Club. on the
eve Of consideration by the Senate In
Washington Of the Italian debt settle
nient. said, Our financial policies to-
ward Europe are backed not by senti-
ment, but by sence,' MIR. Churchill
and Mr.. Snowden agreed that responsi.
bility for the war debt difficulties rests
on the United States for refusing to
cancel the. obligations.
Offers Help. Not Charity.
Mr.. Mellon. who prepared his ad.
dress before the related remarks were
made in the House Of Commons, de.
scribed the debt settlement terms as
the most favorable which could be OBJ
tained short of force. adding that the
administration believed in help, not
charity, toward Europe. Mr. Snowden,
however, viewed the war loans to the
allies through Britain as America e
gift as sort of compensation for her
late arrival on the battlefields of Eu.

To this WAS added Mr.. Churchills s
observation that responsible persons

and war-stricken countries of Europe

Atlantic to that wealthy, prosperous
and great republic"
Calling attention that settlement
negotiations are pending with France
Greece and Jugoslavia, the only
European nations which have not
funded their debts. Secretary Mellon
warned that Europe must balance its
budget and fund It's debts If it is to be
established on a sound basis.
With that accomplished. with the
assistance of American Investments 8
he pointed out. Europe will offer to
this Nation a healthy and improved
market. That market he deemed
necessary for disposal of exportable
surpluses in order to prevent collapse
OF prices here. -.
Criticism of the debt settlements as
too lenient was met by the Secretary
with the statement that he preferred
to have solvent customers with pros
poets of profitable business future
rather than force his customers into
bankruptcy.
