BAKER ANSWERED 1 CANCELLATION OF DEBTS ABROAD Administration Officials Hold Settlements Are Lenient. Bv United Press WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.—Complete cancellation of foreign war debts by the United States, as advocated by former Secretary of War Newton D. Baker in an article published in Cleveland, will not be considered by this Government, Administration officials were agreed today. President Coolidge and the debt funding commission hold the recent foreign debt settlements are as lenient as is expedient.TTnd that cancellation would not be sanctioned by Congftis or the American voters, It was said in reply to Baker. Economic Reasons "I believe a mutual cancellation policy will be wise,” Wilson’s war secretary said, basing his argument on economic and trade considerations rather than the appeal to sentiment recently made by the French war premier, Clemencegu. ‘‘Such a policy ought to relieve England, France, , Italy, Belgium,'' andt he rest of our war allies both as to their debts to us and their debts among themselves, and in turn ought to re tuire the release of some part of h burdens imposed on Germany “The argument is irresistible not only that America has an interest in general rehabilitation and the maintenance of world peace, but that our continued prosperity requires it. Dollars Not Needed “The United States needs not dollars, but a confident, prosperous and peaceful world for its industrial and commercial operations. That condition can not be brought about so long as we continue to exalt payments up to the capacity of the debtors to pay.” Publication of Baker’s article by the Union Trust Company of Cleveland raised the question here as to the extent to which such a cancellation policy has gained favor in banking and business circles. HORSE SHOW PLANNED Committees Named to Direct Affair at Ft. Benjamin Harrison. With several committees selected, plans are being formulated for the Army horse show at Ft. Benjamin Harrison, Oct. 1-3.

PROSPEROUS YEAR FOR IRIS STATE (Continued From Page 1) severe frost doesn't* come before Oct. 10. “Wheat prices have been fair, corn good recently, but moderate until just lately, hogs good and cißtle poor.” , Predicts Good Business W. H. Arnett, State Chamber of Commerce manager, said: “The good crops will have a fine psychological, as well as economic, effect. Industry is reported in good condition over the Slate. We expect fall and winter busines to be good.” “With the good luck for the farrger sustained we have a fair chance for good fall and winter business. A large per cent of our prosperity is dependent on the farmer,” said George Marott, shoe dealer and capitalist. Indications point to wholesome economic conditions the next few months, according to Elmer W. Stout, Fletcher American National Bank president. “I know of no one who is pessimistic about the immediate future. Business seems good in this locality,” Stout said. Realtors are “pepped up” over the fall outlook, said Robert MacGregor, Indianapolis Real Estate Board secretary. “Prospects are exceedingly good, and many offices report a large number of deals in progress. There were some complaints early in th.' year, but things have picked up con siderably,” he said. “From all indications it looks as if business will be active and prosperous this fall and winter. Farmers are faring better than they have been and collections in the country district are much improved over the

Agriculture Weak "So far as I can see the outlook for general business is good, particularly so in industrial centers. The Weakness in the whole system i agriculture,” declared Herbert P. Sheets, National Retail Hardware Association secretary. “Agriculture is down as result of land speculation following the war. A great many communities will not have a great deal surplus spending money, but generally business will be about the same as last year. “The farm situation has been considerably ■ exagerated in political talk of legislative solution of an economic problem.” COIN CAUSES DEATH Bv United Press fit.

AT Swails Rd., 2.96 miles from Michigan Rd. south to the Johnson County line, ; with a bituminous macadam surface j estimated cost $68,377. was denied be- ! cause the board held the expenditure ; was not justified by necessity. The C. J. Stewart Rd., Walker Ave. from State Ave. to Churchman Pike, .91 mile asphalt, estimated cost $34,000. and the William Thompson Rd., .37 mile of the Lafayette Rd. between Myers Rd. and Sixteen in St., estimated cost $13,000. were opposed because the board held the expense would be more than the benefit derived.

ROOSEVELT DOES NOT TALK COURT (Continued From Page 1) route to the State convention of the American Legion at Marion. Robinson's office professed ignorance of the Senator's whereabouts. It has been rumored that Roosevelt’s attack on the World Court at Ft. Wayne, Saturday, was at the instance of Senators Watson and Robinson, political foes of the court. Roosevelt is being mentioned for the Legion national commandership and is said to be making a pass for Indiana support. His failure to discuss the court publicly in Indianapolis may have been the result of the- storm of resentment that followed the Ft. Wayne outburst. Askgd why he did not discuss the court before the Service Club, Roosevelt replied in a style characteristic of his father: “The rush for the band wagon has started. The United States Senators have spent the summur with their constituents and now understand better the feelings of the people. Senators Gooding and Trammell lead the procession. The others will fall in soon. I hope to see withdraw from the league court byt autumn.” Near the close of his address, Roosevelt digressed to take a slam at the recent primary scandals in Pennsylvania and Illinois. “We’ve got to inject more idealism in this country. You’ve got to get out and fight for the man who’s clean and, by the same token, fight against the man who isn’t,’’ he said. Involuntary Vacation Referring to the recent trip to Asia, accompanied by his brother Kermit, young “Teddy" declared the sojourn was made possible through the “involuntary vacation” he received two years ago when he ran for Governor of New York. This time, Roosevelt said afterward, he is completely “hands-off” with respect to the gubernatorial race. The Colonel drew a big laugh when he related his mother's conversation with an aged woman, who was interested in tl\e Asiatic expedition. She was especially interested in the capture of several Ovis Poli, and remarked, “It’s so wonderful that they caught all those splendid specimens of the Pola Negri.” “All animal life is supposed to have originated in the plateaus of Central Asia,” Roosevelt said, revealing the element w'hich attracted him and his brother to the remote corner of the earth. Seated at Roosevelt’s table were
