WASHINGTON, May (P).-The state
department advised the British govern
ment today that the United States
regards the recent correspondence
between Secretary Mellon and Presi-I
dent Hibben, of Princeton university,
on war debts as a purely domestic
discussion and does not desire to en-
gage in any formal diplomatic ex
changes ON the subject.
The views of the Washington gov
ernment were contained in a note
transmitted to the British embassy.
Mt was in reply to note handed the
department earlier in the day by the
British charge daffaires, acting in the
absence from Washington of AM
bassador Howard, which CHALLENGED
the accuracy of statement by Mr..
Mellon that Great Britains debt pay
ments to the United States would not
constitute drain on British economic
resources.
The statement of the treasury sec
retary was part of letter written by
him to DR.. Hibben in reply to the con-
tention of members of the Princeton
and Columbia university faculties that
there should be a revision of the debt
settlements.
The American note was terse. 1t
contained only an acknowledgment of
! the British communication and the
| observation that the discussion be-
| tween Secretary Mellon and DR.. Hibben
was a domestic one and that no formal
interchanges on the subject We're
! desired.
While the state department was
making public the text of the Ameri-
can reply, Secretary Mellon was
| issuing lengthy formal statement on
the subject. He said the treasury had
no desire to engage in a controversy
! with the British government, but in
| view of the British note deemed it its
duty "to present the facts as he knows
them and to endeavor to explain ex-
| listing differences"
Referring to his letter on March Is
last to DR.. Hibben, which contained
the statement that "Great Britain will
receive this year from her debtors
| $2,000,000 more than she pays u.s. Mr.
| Mellon said it was not intended as a
communication, direct or indirect, to
the British government and that gov

drank more whisky. He gave her
his buckskin gloves. He put on the
rubber gloves They waited, whis-
pering in the darkness.
Now's the time, Mrs. Snyder
said" Gray testified. Spasms of emo
tion shook his body. Mrs. Snyder
bowed her head and wept.
"She took me by the hand Gray
continued. Il had the sash weight
and the chIoroform. She had the
pliers and the picture wire. She led
me to the door of the room and
opened it. She went in first, and ]

couldn't go on. I couldn't have
done it, Hewould have got the best
of me-"
But as Albert Snyder called upon
her for help, Mrs. Snyder, Gray said,
picked up the fallen sash weight and
struck her husband on the head.
Gray's story had the spectators in
an emotional state almost equal to
his own Mrs. Snyder's head had
sunk to her arms. His mother ana
sister were pitiably upset. Justice
Townsend Scudder leaned forward to
catch each word of Gray's testimony.
Gray grapped with Snyder, getting
on top of him and trying to smother
him with bed clothing. He also tried
to choke him, now in self defense
more than with murderous intent, he
felt He recalled rushing to close
window so that Snyder's cries would
not be heard by neighbors. Mrs.
Snyder poured chloroform on the
pillow.
Although the murder, Gray said,
had been planned for weeks, it was
not clear, even to the last moment,
who would do it. Mrs. Snyder had
asked him to have a gunman. She
had talked of poison. She had be-
lieved chloroform would be used. But
at the moment of the deed there was
no plan, only some oiN
her unswerving purpose. Gray felt
himself unable to do the thing, when
mroe than quart of whisky had
failed to make him what, he felt,
she wanted him to be.
AS Gray neared the end of his
testimony, the Jurors were hunched
forward in their chairs. The court
room was in confusion. The hands
of the court clock pointed to 4:3O,
the usual recess time. Samuel L.
Miller, chief of Gray's counsel, moved
that court recess because of the wit
ness condition.
Gray, however, turned to the judge
and said he was all right and would
like to go ON and clear up some
points he had missed. He then told
several details he had omitted. Mrs.
Snyder, he said, had showed him,
after the murder, bottles of poison
and a capsule. The latter, she told
him, was potent enough to kill a
dozen persons. ~,

MEN STILL DREAM
 PERPETUAL MOTION
SkETCHY RECORD OF BROKEN HOPES EXTEND FAR BACK
 PATENT OFFICE

WASHINGTON, Jan. IA (P)-Even knowledge of the realistic laws of mathematictics does not make in- ventors immune to the romantic lure of one of the oldest fallacies cherish- ed by human beings.
 Belief that inanimate matter can be so patterned that it will, after re- ceiving an initial human impulse, produce perpetual motion is shown by the Patent Office records to re- main the cardinal faith of an aston ishing number of dreamers.
 Many have been men of consider able erudition, and some have to their credit inventions of sound worth. Most of them have experience ed the elation of apparent success until their little machines were stop ped by the laws of nature.
 A sketchy record of broken hopes extends far back into the files of the Patent Office. The only estimate of the number of applications to patent perpetual motion devices received since the office was established is a vague "thousands". None of the de- vices has been found patentable after examination by experts.

T0 KEEP CERTIFICATES
 UNTIL MATURITY
LOAN VALUE IN TERRITORY OF ALASKA ESTIMATED TO BE
 S107,61o

WASHINGTON, Jan. 15. P)-Sat- nrday January 1, meant more than a mere New Years holiday for thou sands of American World War vet erans.
 It ushered in the lawful period du- ring which those who served in the great conflict and were entitled to more than the $50 cash in adjusted service credit, may, if they desire, obtain the first benefits from their 20-year insurance policies or bonus certificates by depositing them as se- curity for loans.
 It is estimated that there are ap- proximately 3,64S,932 such certificates in the hands of veterans or depend ents of deceased service men, with a face value of s3,137e5S,O62, and that loans up to s262,54O,OOo may be made during the year 1927 on that aggre- gate. Applications for certificates may be made up until January 1, 1928.
 While it is inevitable that many service men or families of those who failed to return from overseas who are holders of certificates will exercise the loaning privilege, Frank T. Hines, Director of the Veterans Bureau, hopes that benefciaries will forego such a step to any appreciable extent on the ground that it would be more advantageous to the holder to keep his certificate unencumbered to the date of maturity.
 The earliest date of any of the bonus policies is January 1, 1925, and as the law provides that loans may be made any time after two years from date of issuance, this New Years will find hundreds of the early applicants eligible for loans. Others will become eligible during the year at the expiration of the two-year pe- riod from the date of their certif- cates.
 The average amount that may be obtained by loans during the year 1927 is approximately eight and one half cents on the dollar of the face value of the certificate Loans may be made at any National or State bank up to 90 per cent of the current value of the certificate Thus, on a $1,OOO policy, at the end of two years, a loan of $87S93 could be made, in- ISIOSC CACluucu. Ou IuG 0dulO pOlICy, at the end of 19 years, a loan of $83123 would be possible.
 Failure of a veteran to make good the loan at maturity date will result in the bank or trust company turning over his certificate to the Veterans Bureau, which will hold it for the full period of negotiability and turn over the balance after deducting the loan and interest. The government will make good to the bank.
 Estimates of the amount of loan values which will become available for the next four years follow:
 '1s27-$262,5sS ,344; 1928, s37O,91O,- sO6; 1929, $S2,O4S,654,e54; 1880, s59o,- Ss3, 6S6.
 The loan value by Territorial pos session and for non-residents, for 1927 is: Alaska, s1O7,619.
