President Wilson, who seemed tired, told me 'the British will discuss everything until I bring up freedom of the seas. This they will not even discuss at all.

But I have one trump card left. THE UNITED STATES CAN BUILD THEM OFF THE SEAS'." With our growing fleet, we were in a 'fair way to do this. But instead of "building them off the seas" we obligingly destroyed magnificent battleships, including some only party finished, while England destroyed beautiful blue prints. General Mosely added with permission to quote- him: "We lost our power to collect foreign debts when we sank that fleet in 1922. that fleet were "If afloat today the money would come." MR.

By RAYMOND CLAPPER United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Nov. 19- (U.P.)-The headway which is being made toward a 000,000 deficit for the current fiscal year raises the prospect of another winter of agonized laboring to cut federal expenses and raise taxes.

The purpose was to consider the growing deficit which threatens to reach $1,000,000,000 before Christmas. Members were notified by telephone.
