TENNIS STARS TO PLAY ON WHITE HOUSE COURTS President and Mrs. Hoover Invite Friends to Davis Cup Matches May 21. The President and Mrs. invited a number of personal friends as well as high officials of the Govern- ment, and ranking members of the dip- lomatic corps, to witness the exhibition matches between American Davis Cup tennis players and Canadian Japanese stars, to be staged on the White House court the afternoon of May 21. It is expected the event will assume the proportions of a lawn party. al- though the number of guests will be restricted due to the limited size of the tennis inclosure. This will be the first time that ex- hibition matches have been played on the White House court since 1923, when President and Mrs. Harding and a com- pany of friends, watched William T. Tilden and a number of other tennis stars perform. Hoover have U. S, AND GREECE SIGN DEBT TREATY Differences Regarding Loan Agreement Adjusted, Nation Receiving $12,167,000. By the Associated Press. An agreement funding the Greek debt and advancing $12.167.000 to Greece, finally settling all disagreements be- tween the United States and Greece as the result of the tripartite loan agree- ment, has been signed by Secretary Mellon and Charalambos Simopoulos, the Greek Minister. ‘The agreement provides for the fund- ing of the $15,000,000 already owed this country by Greece over a period of 62 years. The new loan of $12,167,000 is to be repaid in 20 years at 4 per cent interest annually. The service of the latter loan is to be administered by the International Finance Commission. The settlement is the result of the tripartite agreement under which credit of $48,000,000 was established for Greece on the books of the Treasury under the Wilson administration. After Greece had_received advances of $15,000,000 the United States took the position that the events subsequent to 1920 relieved it of making further advances. Greece disagreed with this contention and the new agreement finally settled the differ- ences. TOURS. The WEALTH #ha? STEAMSHIPS, STEAMSHIPS. STEAMSHIPS.
