FRUIILAND TO
ASK FOR AID
Third Yearly Appeal For
"Meat and Bread" Set
for October %
By NOAH HOLLOWELL
Trustee Fruitland Institute

Fruitland Institute, a Baptist
co-educational school, six miles
from Hendersonville, is preparing
to go to the public with its annual
appeal for assistance in the way
of food for the present school
year.
This will be the third annual
appeal made by the trustees in
order to continue the good work
started at Fruitland by the Rev.
A. |. Justice 35 years ago.
Although there is not the neces-
sity for private school facilities
that existed when Fruitland Insti-
tute was established because of
the lack then of public high
schools in this territory, the trus-
tees and friends of this school are
not ready to abandon the work
because Christian training is re-
garded as much of a necessity to-
day as it was 35 years ago. TUT
ton and boarding expenses are
low and a small enrolment will
not take care of the expenses of
operation, therefore the school
will go back to those which it has
helped for 35 years with its appeal
for "meat and bread"
M. L. Walker of East Flat Rock,
a trustee Of Fruitland, was elect
ed by the recent session of the
Carolina association as chairman
of a committee to promote the APP
peal to individuals, business men
and Baptist churches of Hender-
son, Pennsylvania and Buncombe
counties.
Appointments will be made for
a large number Of speakers to APP
peal to these churches on October
%.

WAR DEBT TALKS ARE
UNDERWAY IN CAPITAL

WASHINGTON. Oct. 6. (UP).
The Anglo-American war debt
talks began here yesterday in an
atmosphere that offered little hope
for satisfactory achievements.
While neither the British nor
the American negotiators spoke
officially, it was learned that each
side was impressed with the size
of its task and its limitations in
bargaining.
The opening conversation was
held at the treasury department.
It was brief, lasting only 80 min
utes. Trade and financial figures
bearing on Britain's ability to pay
it's S4,O00,O00,00 debt were con-
sidered, but the heart of the debt
problem remained unpierced.
Thereafter the British nego-
tiators Sir Frederick Leith-Ross,
representing the British treasury,
and Ambassador Sir Ronald Lind
saw decided. for the moment, to
desert the dreary tolk of dollars
and pounds for the more exciting
atmosphere of world series base
ball game.
Under-secretary of Treasury
Acheson and Frederick Livesey,
economic advisor of the state de,
partment. represented the United
States.
Between the British and Amer
lean viewpoints on debt reduc-
ton. as one unofficial British OBJ
server remarked, rolls the wide
and deep expanse of the Atlantic
ocean,"

OPPOSE
RECOGNITION
OF RUSSIANS
HAYES Commander;
Back Big Navy
Program

, CHICAGO. Oct. 6. (UP). -
More than 100000 World war vet
Grams ended their 1888 convention
last night with election of officers
and adoption of resolutions which
struck at things considered un-
American.
In the closing sessions of the
American Legion convention the
veterans came out emphatically in
opposition to cancellation or re-
duction Of war debts. They went
on record against recognition of
Russia OF extension Of loans to
that country. They opposed any
efforts to put their country into
the world court or League of Ma
tions.
They adopted a resolution OPP
posing any effort to spread Hit
lerism in this country, urged the
government to fight crime and
communism, opposed any reduc-
ton in the severity of the present
immigration laws, and adopted a
four-point program asking the fed
eral government to assume respon-
sibility for the care of all war vet
Grams not now able to finance
their own disqualification.
The newly elected national COM
mander. Edward A. Hayes of De-
catur. ILL.,, said after his election
that he will urge adoption of a
policy demanding that the United
States have a navy second to
none." Hayes was elected to sue
ceed Louis A. Johnson of West
Virginia.
The final sessions, held in the
opera house which Samuel insult
built on the banks Of the Chicago
river, was in marked contrast to
preceding days of the convention.
Gone for the time was all the
jhilarity which had kept the city in
an uproar and into one days SEES
sion, the Legionnaires crowded all
the bushes sthey had scheduled
originally to spread over many
hours Of convention meetings.
They passed from one subject to
another with the same kind of pre-
cision they once used in military
maneuvers. There were few de-
bates.
The four-point program follow
ed closely the ideals expressed by
Roosevelt in his address Monday.
In regard to care of veterans and
veterans dependents, the program
differed in only one "slight" item
to that of the president.
Mr.. Roosevelt has said that GER
tain classes of veterans should be
cared for by states, counties or
cities, that if these bodies could
not care for them, then the fed
eral government should. The Lee
gion program called upon the gov.
eminent to assume the original
responsibility.

DECISION IS
REACHED At
London TODAY
Would Settle For
Less Than Half
Billion
Copyright. 1893, United Pres.)

Copyright. 1893, United Pres,)
LONDON. Oct. 6.-(UP).-
The British government has de-
cided definitely against resuming
payment in full of war debt in
stallments to the United States
regardless of the outcome of the
present negotiations at Washing
ton, it was learned today from an
authoritative source.
Two alternatives to be offered
the United States, it was said on
authority regarded as unimpeach-
able, are:
IA lump settlement in gold
of not more than $475,000,O00;
2.-"Token" payments of $5,-
100000 each every six months in
place of full instalments of about
$95,500,000..
The present capital value of the
British debt, according to Ameri-
can treasury. figures is $4,565,-
100000, and under the original
agreement Britain would have
paid total of approximately
eleven billion dollars by 1884.
Sir Frederick Leith-Ross, chief
economic adviser to the govern
ment and principal British war
debt negotiator, already has been
instituted to make the alternative
offers named, it was understood.
The lump sum payment, of
course, would include principal
and interest.
United Press information is
that bar gold has been purchased
over a period of many months by
an unknown buyer in behalf of
the British department and would
be RENTED at once if lump set
Element were made.
The token payments would COM
mence December Is. when the
next debt installment is due.
While no decision is irrevocable,
it was said that the offer was re-
garded by the Macdonald govern
ment as definite.

Full 'cancellation of international

On the other hand if debts are to
be considered as one of the inter-
national problems standing in the
way of world recovery. such as
the money question, tariff and dis
armament. the situation would
take on a different aspect.
at is claimed that debts stand

"If we are to reduce or cancel

would be in the interest Of the
people of the United States to do
so and there can be no such in

ELECTRIC KITCHEN
OPENING UP HERE
NEW RESTAURANT SITUATED
AT MARGARET AND FLEM-
ING STREETS

O. L. Hardgrave is this week
opening at the corner of Margaret
and Fleming streets "The Electric
Kitchen" which he has recently
had installed with the latest cleo
trical restaurant equipment and
fixtures.
Mr.. Hardgrave is native of
GAINESVILLE, Arkansas, and first
came to Key West for a visit in
1906. He was much impressed
with this city and stayed for al
most a year, leaving here for Cen
trail America where he remained
until his return here some time
ago.
AS chef for the Electric Kitchen,
Mr.. Hardgraye has chosen a well
known Key Wester, Frank Lones.
who has had considerable ex-
perience in the restaurant business.
The building which the Electric
Kitchen will occupy has been
completely renovated and painted
and for years was occupied by
Bakers Restaurant. The entire
wooden floor of the building has
been RACED and replaced by con-
crete floor.
The inside of the structure has
been arranged so that the patrons
may see the food prpared and cook
ed. A feature of the kitchen is
the heat canopy which draws all
excess heat and odors from the
building and sends in a steady
supply of fresh air at all times.
In all, Mr.. Hardgrave believes
that he is giving this city one of
the most modern eating places to
be found anywhere in the state.

their backs on the question of
recognition.
And were it not for the fact,
perhaps. that this country and
the world are suffering from an
economic depression, Roosevelt
himself might have followed the
example of his predecessors.
Accepting The Responsibility
1t is possibly because of these
risks, therefore, that the Presi-
dent makes himself personally re-
sponsible. Evidently he feels that
the question is of such Importance
that he cannot delegate any part
of the task to another.
He has an Astounding self-con-
fidence in himself and in his
ability to talk the situation over
with anyone under any condi-
tions. That is why he stresses the
fact Litvinoff will explore with
me personally all questions out
standing between our countries"

ROOSEVELT TO

QUESTION ALONE
CHIEF EXECUTIVE MAKES
KNOWN FACT THAT HE IS
TO PERSONALLY CONDUCT
PROPOSED NEGOTIATIONS
(By HERBERT PLUMMER)
(By Associated PressD

WASHINGTON, November L.
A significant thing about President
Roosevelt's invitation to Russia
for a discussion of the problems
which have kept the two nations
apart is the stipulation that he
personally" would conduct the
negotiations.
There can be no doubt about
the Importance which the president
himself attaches to that. When he
made public the correspondence
between himself and Kalinin at the
press conference, one one of the
first questions asked was:
"Mr. President, with whom will
Commissar Litvinoff talk when he
arrives in Washington"
Without hesitation, he replied
emphatically:
"Mep
Last, But Not Least
This is in line with the policy
he has pursued since he entered
the White House on March A. In
every major move his administra-
tion has made there has been re-
served for him personally the final
say.
This was true when he issued
his general invitation to the debtor
nations of the world to send rep
resentatives to Washington to dis
cuss the question of war debts.
And it accounts, perhaps, for the
manner in which the British
American war debt discussions
are now being conducted.
The same thing has been true
in every step of the framing of
the domestic recovery program.
In all of MIRA, AAA and other
parts of the vast recovery ma
chinery it is Franklin d. Roose-
welt himself who appears as the
final authority.
The domestic political hazards
as well as the international COM
munistic risks involved in the
question of iecognition of Russia
are important. Other Presidents
from Wilson TO Roosevelt-be-
cause of the pressure of Amer
