in Any Understanding Reached
With United States.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, September 15-The French
government, it was authoritatively
learned today. is willing to accept in
principle any understanding regarding
war debts that Great Britain may
negotiate.
In government circles it was expected
Great Britain will try to settle with
the American administration for 10
per cent of the amount owed, on the
same basis as the reductions in German
reparations
While no formal decisions have been
made by the cabinet. the problem has
been under discussion by the French
ministers directly concerned since in
the face of European unrest France has
given indications of being eager to i'm
prove her relations with America.
The cabinet also has been discussing
plan for large reductions in French
ornaments on condition that measures
to control German ornaments be &C
cepted.

BONDS END WEEK
F. WITH BETTER TONE
U. S. Governments Fail to
Join Moderate Recovery of
Other Groups.
BY BERNARD S. O'HARA.
Associated Press Financial Writer.


NEW YORK, November 10 O4p).-The
bond market rounded out q week of
siumping values by showing bit more
sssadinesS today. Several groups con-
t-ibuted fair quota1 of gains and thus
reflected a better balance of bids and
offers. U. S. Governments were not in
this category, as they suffered enough
loss to heavily shade their net gains of
Friday.
Most of the Federals approached the
close on the lows and were of from 2-32
to 1922 of a point. High-rating cor
poration loans were irregular in a mar
row way with volume quite small.
The major improvement occurred in
the lower-priced groups, in which rails
utilities and a scattering of industrials
tended upward in the more active class
sifications. Foreign issues we're gen.
orally steady. and the list was featured
by another swift rise in French govern
ment issues, stimulated by resumption
of the climb in the French franc against
the dollar
There were gains Of fractions to

vania Railroad, International Tele-
phone. Baltimore &; Ohio. Allegheny
Cooperation, Chicago & North Western,

New York Cotton

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, November Is-After an
early improvement on news of Soviet
recognition, cotton prices today lost all
the gains and closed 3 points lower
TO 8 points higher than yesterday.
Weakness in near months was attribut-
ed to reports that the Government had
arranged to exchange its long contracts
for spot cotton. Spots were reduced S
points to lois.
The effect on cotton prices of recogni-
ton of Soviet Russia was somewhat
tempered by the statement made by an
Official Of the A. A. A.. that should
Russia desire to purchase any American
cotton, buying would take place in the
open market rather than through Gov
eminent agencies, as in the case of the
last credit advance to that country.
Whether the Government would con-
sent to indemnify private individuals in
trading with Soviet Russia was subject
Of uncertainty. though spot interests
we're enabled to secure funds from the
Fl. r. c. in the case of recent purchases
for Russia and China through forn1a-
ton Of special corporations for this
purpose.
There was very little of the usual
Saturday hedging by spot interest owing
to the limited amount of cotton dealers
were able to buy on q tenderable basis.
At the same time, trade interests, both
domestic and foreign, took advantage
Of the decline of over 81 bale from
best figures of the week to fix prices
on the theory that it is simply a ques-
ton of time when the holding move
ment, facilitated by Government ad-
vances, will push contract quotations to
a level commensurate with the lending
figure at interior warehouses.
The demand for raw material by
domestic mills, however, is tempered by
the absence of new business and a
growing sentiment that some action
should be taken TO reduce output of
certain lines of sheetings, prints and
broadcloths. An improvement in retail
distribution has been quite generally In

HOLY YEAR AND
MORE SAINTS
CannonizatiOn Has Become
An Impressive Scene In
Vatican City
3 STEPS ARE NECESSARY

vatican City.-Holy year will see
four new saints added to the long
list OF the Catholic calendar as well
as number of new "blesseds,' y
which is the rank of sanctity imme-
diately below that of a saint.
To become a saint in the Catho-
lie church is difficult matter, and
the various processes which lead
eventually to the candidate being
given what are called "honors of
the altar" may last as long as a
century. This is not, of course,
the average period required, but
there have been cases which have
taken as long, or even longer.
Three Steps Necessary.
Venerable" Blessed" and
saint" are the three steps in the
scale of sanctity.
The sacred congregation of rites
Is the ecclesiastical office which
deals with canonizations, and the
whole procedure has a close anal
ogy to the proceedings In a court
of justice.
There is a 'postulator" for the
person whose claims to sanctity are
examined, and this office corre-
spends closely to that of the lawyer
for the plaintiff.
There also is the devils advocate,
whose office has a sort of resem-
blance to that of states attorney.
The duty Of the devils advocate
in canonization trials is to pick
holes in the case.
When a person has been made
blessed" by the church, the day
comes when he or she is to be
raised to the dignity Of the altar.
a solemn ceremony takes place
for the purpose at the Vatican,
where the pope holds what is
known as a semi-secret consistory.
Seated on his throne in the hall
Of benedictions, his holiness faces
an assembly Of cardinals, patri-
archs, archbishops, and bishops. All
the bishops within a radius of one
hundred miles are summoned.
Cardinals on Hand.
Grouped around are the cardinals.
They wear their red robes sur
mounted with ermine capes. On
their heads are small red skull
caps.
a monsignor of the sacred con-
gregation of rites introduces the
name of the process" to the con-
sistory. Then the pope delivers a
brief address, extolling the virtues
and holiness of the person.

merely formal, for the congregation

Prohibition Missed Them

Butterflies are habitual drunkards
and dope fiends, says Pathfinder
Magazine. Decaying fruit, especial
ly grapes, have an irresistible at
traction for them, and they will
feed until completely intoxicated.
They also go for Indian Pipe weed,
which has drug in the juice that
stupefies them. In addition to this
they are Unsuitable gluttons when
they can get meat. They will feed
on a dead snake until so filed that
they cannot fly away.
