WILL RECEIVE | e WAR DEBT PAYMENT Great Britain Will Turn in Bulk ’ of $100,000,000 on 1 Account. | | Special Dispatch to The Star. | | NEW YORK, June 8.—On June 15 the United States Government will | receive on account of war indebtedness | in the neighborhood of $100,000,000, the | overwhelming bulk_of which ‘will bs | > tion was turned in in the form of cash. There is at least as much incentive for the 'debtor nations to make their pay- ments this month in securities as there was at that time. Indeed, they stand to gain rather handsomely by availing themselves of the alternative form of payment. By paying in Treasury five- three year notes, which have been sell- ing at the largest discount of any of the Government obligations, they will save, among them, between $3,000,000 and’ $4.000,000. The net effect of the whole transaction is, of course, merely to reduce the volume of outstanding Government indebtedness. Lions Elect Officers.
