On Arms Proposal (Continued’ on from Page One) European nations -wili go a long way! before publicly defaulting in their ob- ligation. Also some believe there is little real intention on the part of some of the debtors to pay up in full their settlements with the United States, and that now is a time for a showdown on it. Democrats and Republican Inde- pendents opposed the debt settlements now in effect on the ground they were too lenient to the European nations, However, Senator Borah told the French newspaper correspondents ac- companying Premier Laval to this country that if France would cancel German reparations he would favor cancellation af the war debts owed ta America by the allies. He is still standing for that proposition.

They probably will offer a much lighter immediate burden, rely- , {ing more on borrowing to meet the government's need of cash. Excise taxes, at least to the extent proposed by the treasury, are in dis- favor: So are the big raises on in- come taxes, particularly in the lower brackets. A good many Republicans have voiced similar ideas. Manuevuering for its expected pro- hibition vote, the house wet bloc has sent eut one more invitation to all members to get on the bandwagon before the showdown comes.
