F0mingo Is ColorJnl Bird

TOR oddty distinctive coloring, and generally
interesting characteristics, no other bird
quite equals the f1amingo. 1t has been said
that he has "legs like heron's, feet like
ducks. neck like a cranes and voice like a
large tin horn blown by an amateur" He is
yeb-footed water bird and stands five to six
feet high. His small body is set high on long
slim legs and his swan-like neck he frequently
carries in the form of the letter s, or at other
times like a tall rosy vase.
The famingo's beautiful plumage is of q
deep vermillion, like flame, which gives him his
name This is set off by black quilts.
The male bird, as is usual in birdland, is the
brighter colored, the female being pink. The
young wear inconspicuous brown when they
are old enough to run about, but at first are
pure white.
The nest of the f1amingo is quite as peculiar
looking as the birds themselves. It is really
mound of mud built high enough TO avoid
rising water getting inside the nest. On this
the mother bird SITS with legs folded beneath
her. Usually one egg is in the nest, sometimes
two.

Two Powerful English Press
Groups Unite in

REVIVE 'SHYLoCK' VIEW
Forecast Note to U. S.
With Reasons for Need 4

BY HERBERT MOORE
limited Press stan Correapondenf

LONDON, Nov. 25.-Two of the
most important British newspaper
groups, controlled by Lord Beaver
brook and Lord Rothermere, united
today to declare it Impossible for
Great Britain to pay her $4,000, 900
debt lnstallment, due the United
States Dec. IS.
At the same time, it was believed
in many reliable quarters that the
present British strategy has as its
major purpose the procuring of the
most generous terms possible, If
and when readjustment of war debts
eventually is considered.
Although American rejection Of
the plea for postponement brought
general disappointment, it was con-
sidered reasonable that the British
government privately had not an
ticipated this rejection at the very
time the poStponement was re-
quested.
Uncle ShylOck' Again
At any rate, the American reply
to the postponement request was, it
was considered here, to emphasize the
weight of Britain's burden com-
pared with that of France and Italy.
Although there were a few ref
erences to Uncle Shylock," the
most influential newspapers warned
that the present situation was Ii
able to force Britain to the heaviest
sacrifices, considered equivalent to
an increase of the income tax of
az per cent.
The Star, Liberal afternoon
newspaper, offered one of the first
instances of the Liberal press turn
ing to the "Shylock idea" regarding
war debt. The Star had two
column cartoon on the front page
depicting Shyiock in skull cap,
pointing to a scowling Uncle Sam
covetuosly clutching huge bag Of

WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-Passage
of a beer bill by the house before
Jan. was forecast today by
Speaker John N. Garner.

action will be possible" said the
Vice President-e elect.
From other Democratic leaders it
was learned that skeleton" beer

drawn, with the view to Fastening
prompt committee action immedi-
ately after congress convenes.
The hope is to have the house
ways and means committee report
out such bill about Dec. IL, after
brief hearings. This would permit
vote in the house possibly before
Christmas. ''..t
Under reported plans of the
leadership, the ways and means
committee would ask the judiciary
committee for report on what per
cent beer would 'be legal constitu-
tionally. $500.
However, if the judiciary COM
mittee delays submission of such
report, it was considered likely that
the ways and means committee
would go ahead on the basis of it's
own conclusions as to legal content.

Debts, Arms Link Periled
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS
scripps-Howard Foreign Editor


WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.-Unless
world events force PRESIDENT Elect
Franklin D. Roosevelt to change
his mind within the next few
months, all hope of directly linking
up war debts with disarmament and
world economic reform is doomed.
The disarmament conference be-
gins its last desperate attempt to
get somewhere in about sixty days.
The world economic conference is
expected to begin sitting about the
same time
But, under the Roosevelt plan of
dealing with war debts, it is feared,
many months must pass before
there can be appreciate Roadway.
The Roosevelt method, of course,
does not preclude a certain connec-
ton between the three problems
mentioned. The United States can
lay down the broad principle that
without arms reduction, trade and
other economic benefits to this
country there will be no war debts
reduction, but the connection neces-
sarily will be far less immediate
than under the Hoover proposals.
Three Essential Features
The Roosevelt plan, it is pointed
out, contains three essential fea-
lures:
l. Separate negotiations with
each nation.
2. Through the ordinary diplo-
matte channels.
3. Capacity of the debtor nations
to pay.
Thus, should British and Amer
lean diplomats in washington and
London, after long-drawn out dis
cusSions, decide that Britain's
capacity to pay make it imperative
to reduce her debt by one-half. it
Is asked, would the United States
then tell Britain to trim her navy
by one-half or one-third in order
to get the reduction?
This, it is urged, not only would
De illogical but dictatorial.
II Britain can only pay one-half
she can only pay one-hah. If She
spent less on her navy she obviously
might pay more to the United
States.
Only Congress Can Change Deal
But, she would argue, she can not
and will not reduce her navy. unless
the whole world agrees to arms re-
duction.
And that requires long and tedious
international consultation.
The President and the state de-
partment, as Roosevelt observes
have full authority to negotiate with
foreign powers. But only congress
can alter the dotting of a single az
or the crossing of a single "to of
the existing war debts agreement.
Thus, by the time new war debts
deal was concluded, and the new
deal had been submitted to congress
and keyed, the disarmament parlev
and the world economic conferences
would have folded up and departed
or else gone on the rocks.
