C., WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1921NOO LLOYD GEORGE MAY WIPE Olf ALLIED DEBTS Some of The Foreign Diplomats at ashington Expect British Pre mier to Call Economic Meeting AMERICA IS LEFT OUT England May Cancel Amounts Due From Eurdpean Countries Pro vided France Will Give Germany a Boost Washington, Dec. 13.--Some of tle foreign diplomats in attendance at the arms conference have re ceived word which they interpret as indicating that David . Lloyd George, the British Premier, in preparing to take the initiative in world economic matters, having become convinced fron the results of inquiries made here that the American government does not in tend to call an international eco nomic meeting; at least not in the near future. The British Prime -Minister's plan according to the information in the hands of these diplomats, contem plates the cancellation of all war debts owing to Great Britain by Italy, France, Belgium, Russia and the smaller Balkan Allies, amount ing with interest to upwards of two billions sterling. Wants Relief for Germany Premier Lloyd George, it is re called, proposed to President Wil son that all inter-Allied debts in cluding those hwing to the United States should be cancelled but his present design, according to the understanding, does not include the renewal of that suggestion to the United States. Ie is said to in tend to annul the debts of other countries due Great Britai nsubject to conditions, one, it is understood being that France should forgive the debts of Allied countries to her amounting to about the equivalent of two billions of (ollars and an other being a reduction of German ieparations due to France by 13, 511,000,000 of francs. This is th'e amount the French government borrowed of England during the war, and is about as large a sum as that loaned to France by the United States, which was 15,285, 000,000 francs at the exchange then used of 9.45 francs to the (101 lar. - !wa.. The idea of -the British govern i Unt acting independently of the United States in the cancellation of debts, according to foreign of ficials here, appears to have orig inated with Austen Cha mberlain when he was chancellor of the ex chequer. When Sir Robert Horne succeeded to the chancellorship he objected to striking off from among the British assets so large a sum as the 1,800,000,000 sterling due with accrued interest. Mr. Lloyd George is understood to have been allowing the matter to rest in til the present but the approach ing crisis in the finances of sev eral continental countries, particu larly, Germany, has led to the preparation of a plan by Worth ington Evans and others, wihich it is expected by the foreign ldiplo . mats, Lloyd George would present to an economic conference if o(ne should be called on his own initi ative.

TOBACCO CAMPAIGN MAKING SOME HEADWAY The campaign for the Co-operative Marketing of Tobacco made giant strides last week in Clarendon County and throughout the State. A number of counties have already exceedefl their quota, and we believe that when this week's results are tabulated that Clarendon County will be well over the top., D. R. DuBose, County Chairman and W. R. Gray, County Secretary express themselves as being well pleased with the response that the planters of the county are making. Leading farmers in nearly every see-! tion of the county are at work sign ing up their neighbors. These work ers report that they are everywhere finding the farmers heartily in favor of the movement. Hardly a man but that jois after he understands the contract. The Association has already as sumed sue,h proportions that inumbers of the minrity who had been holding out have come over with the remark that "there is nothing else to do, it looks like this will be the only way to sell tobacco." Tlie Chairman and Secretary wish to appeal to the men in the county who have alrv. dy signed the contract to get out ajnd get others. It is de sirable that we give every tobacco Iplanter in the county an1 opportunity to becoipie a member of the associa tion. Mr. Gray states that township chairmen and others in the county have a numher of signed contracts of which he has no record. le urges that these be sent or nailed to him as soon as possible. I)EATII OF MARY M. RILANIE Miss Mary M. Rhame, aged 951 years, died at 6:30 o'clock Friday afternoon at the home of her niece, Mrs. Ed Allen at :336 West Liberty Street, after having been in declining health for several years due to the, miirmities of old age.

SUMMERTON NEWS T[RS[LY TOLD We have just beei wondering what we would write about this week and hearing the children talking about Santa Claus we ate! wondering if it is possible that another Christmas is almost upon us, of course it is but if time is passing apparently as fast as it has with us for the past twelve n'onths we are surely sailing down the st ream of time at a rapid rate and if ladies of "iong standing" and l(d b:chelors are floating down life's lathway as it appears, we are, we loubt if the farmer that was offered ,10 ceits for cotton and sold for tenr cents has very little to worry about & 'mrapare l to liboe in the "long stinding" catagory. But after all we h:tve all learned to live on less and h-'ve ouit building air castles and wleii we look back over the past and reaie the tact that we have passed through a mighty, trying time if we have th i right conception of this life we are compelled to realize that we axre wonderfully blest to even he sup plied withl forod and raiment. '-chanits are getting very active 11 !the way of displaying their Christ mras goods and in spite of the fact that money is not so Ilentiful we ven ture to say that every father and mo ther will make the necessary arrange ments with Santa Claus to visit the little ones and make them happy as usual. We have no desire to see any more beautiful picture or- a happier bunch of' people than the children on a Christmras morning sometimes We are almost silly enough to wish that one day was Sunday and the next day Christmjos then we would have a day of rest and a day of happiness with many good things to eat of cours! this could not. be but we kinder sus pect that. if we would try right hard we all could spend many happy days and enjoy many good thh.r0s to eat, but instead we let our "mdam" rule us and sometimes some of us at least look and act just about as though we were born in crab-apple time and pickled in vinegar. Let's sweeten up, we don't know who we might attract. Many of our- farmers have abandon ed the idea of tack!ing the cotton cropl another year and a re putting in prae tically their entire open land in grain while others are debating in their own mmids as to what they shall undertake in the.n way of growing produce.

CHANGES ARE MANY AT WASHINGTON Capital of Old is Gone-Delightful, Dreamy Southern City is Now Humming World Center. Washington, Dec. 12.-ollowing a partial lapsing of \Vashington into the sedate aiI dignified capital city of the days of yore, as a result of the getting away from war-time condi tions in the three years following the Armistice, the capital is once more a-humming. The thoUsanlds of vis itors drawn by the disarinuneit conference explain, this. Washing ton is now cosmopolitan to a de gree. While this change is agree able to many, to others it brings a shade of regret. Prior to the World War Wash ington wan, in many respects a de lightful old over-girown Southern town-city. There had been the war with Spain. bringing it into the spotlight of publicity, and then an other lapse back into the o(1 ways. Later, ti oubles with Mexico devel oped, and people' began to sit up and t ake notice of the capital but the city itself was but 'lightly af fected. Then the war with Ger many brough t about such a change in it as hal never been antici )ated by Washington's intimates. Multiplying tens of thousands of people flocked to the capital, most of thei to do some kind of war work, and the visitors for a day or week or month had others fol lowing them in quick succession. with the result the war-time pop ulation increased by leaps anI bounds. Has Become a Real letropolis. Washington became a metro oli tan city of- around half a mili~on. It will never return to the stand ards of the old clays, as govern mental activities cannot be returi in ed to what they once were, but expelses are being cut and work ing forces rediucei, and these wiln check the hustle and bustle ma - terially. Those who leave Washington go out as evangels, in a way, preach ing of the new capital of the n tion. They take in it a patriotic pride. Thus, it, is being ad vertised l as never before. Those who remain as resiilent, or come for gatherins of various sorts, as in the present case the conference on d isairniam ment, will continue to aivertise it Ias a world center. The big numn ber of corresponlents in the capi tal has been auguimented for the period of the con ferem-e by hum - dIredls of others, all of who'lm are writing under a Washington date line. With i the con ference over, its imprint. will remain, and other no table bo(ies will come for oat ional and imnt ernUut ionalI gatherings. Thus, Washington will con Li tie to ie kept to the forefront in, this and other countries as a world center, :nd the view here is, the de-. lightful old city of other (ays will returin nto more. But its transfor mation has been accoipaliel by a growth of real American spirit.
