Are Two Things A Britain Must D0 ILONDON, Aug, 14.— Viscount Grey, speaking at Oxford tonigfii, said there were two things that Great Britain must do; First, pay the American debt ‘and keep it entirely separate from the ques- tion of the allied demts; second, use Britain's credit position in Europe in a generous wiay. The Balfour note did not keep the tiwo questions separate, he said, and, like many beautiful things, in nature, it contulned a hidden sting. it conveyed to him the idea that Britain was resol- ved to be generous up to a cer~ tnln point, but after that would adopt an attitude oi’ contingent generosity, for she was still to retain the right to collect the money due from European deb tors. When the Government had s chance to do big things, ‘Lord’ Grey contended; p. had; chosien little things. _..__---¢4>—-——— MOVED FIVE TIMES TO FLEE FROM MOTHEiR-lN-LAW NEW YORK, Aug l.‘l~Wc have moved five lines in the lasi six months in order to duck my muther-In-Iaiw." pleaded Peri-y Fletcher, of West Hoboken, before Recorder Walters. “But every time we move," he continued, "she packs up and moves into the house right next ‘dour, d asked her why she was following us ail over tlic state of New Jersey sud she told me she would foiloiw us to the culls of the earth to make things dlsngreeable for me."
