MY,BUT STANLEY HAS STRONG PEEVE AGAINSTAMERICA Baldwin Hands Hot-Shot on His Return to England, By United Press SOUTHAMPTON, Jan. 7.—Stanley Baldwin, chancellor of the exchequer, said upon his arrival here today from New York that the greatest difference between England and America is the fact that in America the politicians are handling the final settlement of the debt question, whereas politicians were not concerned with the debt’s contraction. Baldwin, who headed the British debt mission in Washington, asserted Secretary Mellon could have arranged terms with Great Britain for the settlement of the debt, but that the matter was Immensely complicated by getting into the hands of Congress. “Americans are still country folk, politically,” Baldwin continued, in explaining the difficulties he encountered In Washington. “New York opinion cuts no ice whatsoever. .The House and Senate are composed chiefly of men from farming and pastoral communities. “The bulk of Americans have no knowledge of international trade. Whether the British debt is funded new or in the future, it can only be funded on terms which can be got through Congress.” It is doubtful, according to the British financial expert, if Congress can eat its own words and reduce the interest from 6 per cent over all to 314 to 4 per cent.

ID UNDERGO FINAL CITIZENSHIP TEST Stage Fright of Russian Nearly Prevents Passing, “You’re a butcher, married, have six children and read English newspapers?” “Yah,” answered one of the seventysix candidates lor final naturalization In the hearing finished today In Superior Court, Room 1, before Judge James M. Leathers. More than 100 applicants were examined by George McKay, Federal examiner. Relatives of applicants, friends and the necessary witnesses, who must attend each step of the process during five years, crowded the courtroom. Many of them had never seen a courtroom before. One man was denied citizenship because it developed that one of his witnesses had only known him four years and eleven months. Flaws In the war record of several others blasted their aspirations. Naturalization day doesn’t mean much to many residents of Indianapolis. Arrival of Examiner McKay every three months creates quite a stir on W. Washington and S. Meridian Sts., however. Who can tell what technicality may pop up at the last minute and spoil everything? Who was George Washington and what good does the city council do ax*e awfully hard things to remember, especially with the judge looking at one. Stage fright developed in an applicant born In Russia. Hours of history study were of no avail. There are thirteen Senators from this State, he believed. Panic seized him, and his wife wrung her hands. "Your honor, this is the third time this man has tried to pass. He knows but he gets scared. I will pass him.” Even the United States government relents occasionally.

Hunting Space to Park Is Rough on Romance

Relations still are strained between us over being late to the theater a few nights ago all because he wouldn’t take my advice about parking. Engagement Broken “My sister and her fiance broke their engagement last week after a free-for-all fight over a parking space on a rainy night. “I think there ought to be a law compelling a man to take his wife’s or sweetheart’s advice about parking when they go downtown together. A woman’s intuition is so superior to a man’s when it comes to a thing like that.”
