 For instance, the great Revolu- tionary War hero, Gen. William Moultrie, was imprisoned for debt. Also the first Associate Justice of the U. s. Supreme Court, James Wilson, had to flee Pennsylvania to escape his creditors and was about to be served with extradi- tion papers in Edenton, North Carolina, when he died.
 Also John Rutledge of South Carolina, one of the chief drafters of the Constitution, was threatened with imprisonment for debt and only remained out of jail through the sufferance of his creditors
 Today, U. s. Congressmen, Cabi- net members, and Federal Judges remain relatively among the poorest paid public servants in the world. A U. s. Ambassador to London is paid $17,500, while the British Am bassador to the United States is paid $80,000
 A U. s. Supreme Court Justice gets $20,000, while a New York State Supreme Court Justice gets $25,O00.

At this point, Treasury Secretary Morgenthau stepped in with com promise plan. He proposed giving de Gaulle enough power to deal with French civil affairs, but leav- ing the door open for the French people to choose their own leader at a future date. He also urged that de Gaulle's Liberation Com mittee be recognized as the de facto authority" in France, also that it have the power to issue paper money.
 Jimmy Dunn. however, claimed that there would be no use in even presenting the plan to the Presi- dent. Ordinarily, such State sDe- ointment veto would have ended the discussion, but Morgenthau persevered He offered to approach the President personally. This was agreed and he saw FDR. on July 5, one day before de Gaulle's ar rival.
 s~To Dunn's surprise, the President ,okd everything and said he would present. the program to de Gaulle next day This he did. De Gaulle was delighted. U. S.-French rela- tions took a sharp turn for the better, and have continued that way eyer aince.

D. {. Budget Measure
Is Passed by House
And Sent 10 Senate

The House today agreed to the
conference report on the 1916 Dis
trict Appropriation bill and sent it
to the Senate for final action.
The supply bill, agreed to in
conference, calls for an outlay dur
ing the fiscal year beginning July
OF S65 635 $50, or about SGT 600 less
than the total recommended by the
Senate.
AS originally passed by the House,
the bill called for appropriations of
S64, ,988,080, but the Senate added
s7l5, 200 and sent the bill to con-
ference
The Senate now is expected to
dispose of the bill and forward it to
the White House for signature with
little delay. There was bare posi-
bility the Senate might pass the bill
late today, but it was believed more
likely the action would come to-
morrow.

agreed to in conference was recon-

spontaneous. My first discussion
is with Ribbentrop. Nothing has
changed that was decided in Milan.
He repeats Germany's interest and
desire for a long period of peace,
at least three years. He insists on
the Importance of binding Japan
to our system. He maintains that
Russia is too weak to give much
assistance to the Western democra-
cies even if she should take her
stand with them. -
I'VE repeat our discussion. more
or less, with the Fuehrer. He says
he is we'll satisfied with the pact.
and aff1rms that Mediterranean
policy will be directed by Italy. He
is interested in Albania, and is en-
thusiastic about our program to
make it stronghold that will DOM
mate the Balkans completely.
Il found Hitler very we'll, quite
serene, less aggressive, somewhat
aged. His eyes are more deeply
wrinkled. He sleeps very little
Constantly less. He spends great
part of the night surrounded by
friends and collaborators.
Frau Goebbels, who is constant
member of these gatherings and who
feels quite honored, was describing
them but was unable to conceal a
feeling of boredom. 1t is always
Hitler who speaks. So it is to be

Taylor Leaves for Germany
After Facing Question Burruqe

Maj. Gen. Maxwell D. Taylor,
commander of the 101st Airborne
Division, today is returning to the
comparative security of Berchtes-
gaden to rejoin his division after
undergoing one of the heaviest
barrages" he has experienced since
the war began-right in Arlington
County!
For almost an hour yesterday
Gen. Taylor dexterously handled a
rapid-fire bombardment of ques-
tions directed at him by roomful
OF members of the Arlington Red
Cross Home, Service Department, in
what was probably the last inter-
view he had before leaving by plane
for Europe. His wife, in charge of
recruiting for Home Service in the
Arlington Red Cross Chapter, es-
corted him on a tour of inspection
OF the headquarters.
Discussing the future of GIs on
occupational duty, Gen. Taylor yes
terday said, Elaborate plans are
being made for an educational sys-
tenn for GIs while they are on oc-
cupational duty"
Change Will Be Difficult.
Stating he considered the educa-
tional opportunities being offered
American soldiers as one of their
most important advantages, Gen
Taylor said it will be difficult for
them to change from the exciting
aspects of their lives to things
which will seem dull by compari-
son."

Office Workers Death
Due 10 Heart Condition

DR.. j. w. Bird, Montgomery Coun-
ty pathologist, said today that the
death of Miss Jeanne O'Connor, q,
of 1901 Sixteenth street NV, which
occurred yesterday in the office of
the Home Household Finance Co.,
1914 Georgia avenue, Silver Spring,
where she was employed, was due to
natural causes.
DR.. F. j. Broschart, Montgomery
County medical examiner, ordered
an autopsy after police reported
finding a box of reducing tablets in
the woman's possession. They said
she had been taking them for three
days.
DR.. Bird said the autopsy disclosed
that Miss O'Connor died of an acute
cardiac condition. She collapsed
during the afternoon in the office
rest room and efforts of the Silver
Spring Rescue Squad failed to re-
vive her.

psychoanalyze returning veterans,
saying, THE boys who come back

be just plain bored for a while. 1t
will take time for them to get jobs
which will seem important and
that is perfectly natural. We've
told them they were helping to
save the world-and they believe it
enough to risk their lives for it"
Responding to one query as to
why Field Marshal Albert Kessel-
ring appeared to be SO happy in
the pictures of his surrender to the
1O1st Air-borne, Gen. Taylor re-
piled that Kesselring was mot
crushed by defeat" as were other
German commanders. He was not
the military type-seemed more like
a farmer" Gen. Taylor said.
At Berchtesgaden, he said, there
were barracks to accommodate at
least 5000 of Hitler's personal SIS
Elite guard, in addition to the elab-
crate homes of Hitler, Goering and
others of the Nazi hierarchy. He
described the scenery as very beau
tiful, with plenty of snow in the
high attitudes and said there prob
ably will be skiing and yodeling
there this winter"
Since he arrived In Arlington
early this month, Gen. Taylor has
been visiting with his wife and two
sons at their home at Ills North
Evergreen street, Arlington.
