BORAH TO FIGHT
NEW FRENCH
DEBT PLAN
International New* Service
Senator William E. Borah of
Idaho, former chairman and now
ranking Republican member of
the Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee, returned here today “ut
terly opposed” he said, to any re
vision in the French debt fund
ing agreement.
Borah, reelected for another six
year term, was asked what he
thought about the hints from
Paris that the French Government
was willing to negotiate a new set
tlement of the defaulted debt. He
said:
“I am utterly opposed to it.
We settled with France once at
49 cents on the dollar. She
signed an agreement to that ef
fect and repudiated it later.
That settlement covered only
about the amount of money
loaned to France after the Arm
istice.
"There is no reason to as
sume she would abide by any
new agreement. This money
we are tossing about so lightly,
we must remember, belongs to
the American taxpayer.”
Asked whether he had any leg
islative proposals for the coming
session of Congress, Borah re
plied:
“Not until I see what the Ad
ministration has to offer.”
Asked for comment on the
presidential election in which
Borah took no part, although fre
quently urged to publicly aid
Governor Alfred M. Landon, he
said:
“At Cleveland, I gave him
three more States than he car
ried. There I said he would
only carry five States.”

BRINGS CRISIS
(Continued from Fage 1)
so strongly worded about the mon
archy since the days of Queen
Victoria’s temporary unpopularity,
served to set the country by the
ears.
It was felt that the King has
had it forcibly brought home to
him that no matter how great his
personal popularity may be. a con
siderable portion of the nation is
out of sympathy with his oft-re
peated declaration that his private
life is his own and not a matter
for the public so long as he fulfils
his duties as monarch to the best
of his abilities.
Comment by Press
In this connection, the Bir
mingham Post had this to say:
“The Bishop of Bradford’s
must be assumed to have fully
satisfied himself that gossip,
rumor and highly circumstan
tial tale-telling as to one par
ticular phase of his majesty’s
private life is not without its
basis in solid truth.
“And he must be allowed to
speak but the truth himself
when he gives warning that in
the eyes of the people of this
country as in the eyes of sub
jects of the crown overseas, the
private and public life of the
King-Emperor are inseparable.”
KING GEORGE CITED
The Manchester Guradian, after
stating that last Friday’s cabinet
meeting was concerned with a “do
mestic problem that involves . .
relations between the King and his
ministers and his readiness to be
guided... by the premier,” de
clared that no doubt can be held
as to the validity of such a prin
ciple.
The Guardian then proceeded to
invoke the name of King George
as an object lesson for his son.

‘Yard 9 Man Inventor
of Cutting Tool
Until 1916 the Navy Yard had'
to purchase all turbine wheels for
torpedoes from private companies,
but thanks to Frank A. Koontz,
of 306 South Carolina Ave. S. E.,
they are now made in the yard at
a great saving.
The difficulty had been that the
yard had no tool with which to
cut the buckets in the turbine
whools, but with an invention de
vised by Mr. Koontz this could
be done at the yard.
Before his invention, even the
outside firms took from 18 to 20
hours to cut a single bucket, but
with the new machine the same
work can be done at the yard in
seven hours.
In addition to the time savings,
the machine devised by Mr. Koontz
made perfect wheels.
Mr. Koontz, now 70, entered his
apprenticeship in Waynesboro, Pa.,
in 1885, and came to the Washing
ton Navy Yard in 1904. He served
at the yard until his retirement in
1931, during which time he was
a supervisor in the tool shop and
was a toolmaker and designer of
