WAR DEBT CUTS
To Be FOUGHT
IN CONGRESS
Democrats Against Any Con-
cessions Unless All Inter-
national Issues Are Settled

The attitude of Democratic con
gressional leaders in opposing ar
extension of the Hoover debt
moratorium, as expressed at their
conference with the President a
month ago, today developed into
outspoken opposition to any plan
for scaling down war debts with.
out settlement of every other in.
ternational problem.
There were signs on Capitol Hill
that Congress will refuse to slash
war debts unless German repara'
tions are proportionally reduced
military armamentS Slashed, and,
very likely, the Versailles treaty
revised.
This was the plan originally out
lined by Senator BOrah (R.D of
Idaho, chairman of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee, and
apparently it is the only plan hav-
ing o chance of winning congress
siOnal approval.
One outstanding Democratic
leader. who has frequently been
W WAA1OC COAA-
ferences and who has led num-
ber of Administration fights on
foreign affairs. said:
''It is foolish to think that
Congress will scale down or
cancel our war debts in these
hard times. Congress will never
agree to saddle $11,OOO,OOO,OOO
Of debts on American taxpayers
solely to relieve European tax
payers. and certainly not when
nations like France are more
prosperous than our own"
This opinion was partially
shared by Senator Pittman CD
OF Nevada. who said:
Il took it the President
agreed to keep hands off the
repSratiOn question. Naturally
there can be no reduction of
debts without a reduction of
reparatiOns. And If the Presi-
dent is going to do nothing
ABOUT reparatiOns, I don't see
now The question can come be-
fore Congress"

U. S. Land Purchases
RObs D. C.. of Taxes

The District Government was
deprived of at least 100000 in
taxes last year because axable

District and Federal governments

Der of stores in Rising Sun on
Monday, and after handling
and pricing various articles
aroused suspicion. Despite
the watchfulness of clerks, the
lad managed to slip an Inger-
soil watch from the show case
in the store of Haines & Kirk
without being seen. Later in
the day he offered the watch
for sale to Vernon B. Garvin,
who was suspicious, and made
inquiries which some time later
led to the overhauling of the
lad a short distance out of town
and the recovery of the stolen
watch. The boy was instruct
ed to make himself scarce in
these parts in future.
