“ As One Woman Watched DESCENDANT OF GEORGE WASI"ING'I'ON ELM PLANTED HERE. First Replies in' Poll Indicate General Insistéice on Pay- ment to-U. S. The North Americdn’ Newspaper ‘Alliance has polled members of Congress on_their views comcerning the war debts situation. Below is presented the first group of answers. Others will follow in subsequent stories. Opposition to an extension of the | Hoover moratorium and insistence that Europe pay its war debts to the United Btates are expressed in general by mem- bers of Congress who have replied so far to questionnaires on their stand. Telegrams inquiring their position on war debts, which will be an immediate roblem with the convening of Congress rn December, were sent each Senator end Representative. Answers received date follow: 2 Simeon D. Fess, ublican, Ohio: " opposed. to suspension because I fear that post- ponement would lead to cancela- tion. Before the debtor nations can hope for further Jeniency from the United States they must show their purposes to reduce their domestic commitments.” Otis Glenn, Re- publican, Illinois: “Prance’s debt ought not to be re- duced; she has the money and should make the payments. Perhaps Great Britain's debi was re- funded . upon unjust terms, but I am opposed to this Congress acting upon the suspension proposals of creating & refunding debt commission.” Robert M. La Follette, Republican, ‘Wiscensin: “Until the foreign coun= tries agree to reduce reparations and armaments I am against any leniency by this country as to their debt.” Not Partisan Question. David A. Reed, Republican, Pennsyl- vania: “I do not think that Congress will grant any such request for fur- ther delay either before or after March 4. This is not a partisan question. It is argued we are faced with defaults under these debt agreements and that, therefore, we should cancel them. I do not regard this as sound reasoning. My bellef is that there will be few defaults, for I believe that France, Great Britain and Italy will perform their promises, but if the worst came to the worst and default should happen, at least our citizens would then be too wise to make further loans to default- countries.” Claude A. Swan- son, Democrat, Virginia: “The Democratic plat- form was very pos- itive and specific against cancella- tion ar reducilon of the war debt. I believe in fulfilling platform promises. ‘This plank is as much binding on the party as any other part of the platform.” Senators Fess, Glenn, La Follette, Reed and Swans 3 son are members Sepator’ Swanson. of the Foreign Re- - lations Committee. Hiram Binghant, mecticut: “I eannot a pension of the debt payments with the information now available as to the financial situation of the debtor coun- tries pleading for leniency.” Couzens Backs, Borah. James Couzens, Republican, of Michi- gan: “I agree with Senator Borah that this country should not consent to a suspension of the debt payments until the debtor nations make a better pre- sentment of their financial conditions and consent to enter into an interna- tional conference which will consider debts and allyguestions now disturbing the economictability of the world.” Walter F. George, Democrat, of Georgia: “The responsibility for any revision or recomsideration of the war debts rests equally on the Executive and Congress, and in my opinion Con- gress ought to be called together if the emergency is o great that it demands immediate cansidération. While the incoming administration has no official Senator Fess. blican, “ch. to the sus- responsibility, there is a definite moral | responsibility.” Thomas P. Gore, Democrat, Okla- homa: “I would not favor a special session to consider the debt questicn. A special session would be vain and abortive and would accentuate failure to agree. While I doubt if these debts will ever be paid, I do not favor their outright cancellataion. “There are two or three concessions which I would be willing to consider: First. To place England on the -same footing with France as to percentage to be paid. England would probably pay on that basis. If England paid, France would have to pay. If England and France paid, the smaller countries that could pay would pay. Second. An arrange- ment by which the debtor countries would make payments in the nature of a sinking fund’ sufficient to retire the soldiers’ borus cn maturity in 1945 Third. The remainder of the debt to be carried without interest and treated s a :ort of reserve on ‘our part, to be demanded only in case of naticnal emergency, and then only upcn rea- sonable notice, not more than 20 per cent to be called in any one 'year, and to be peid either in money or accept- able goods, at the option cf the debtor. No. 2 and No. 3 are to be considered together. These are apart from any concession respecting reciprocity and disarmament, which I look upon as im- practical and as unenforceable as the debts themselves. If they are unwiliing to enter into any of these adjustments, then I would say pay or repudiate, be- cause repudiation would impair their credit for the future and perhaps serve as & wamning to overwilling lenders.” Wesley L. Jones, Republican, Wash- fngton: “If European nstions can con- tinue huge experditures for armaments and war preparations, they ought to pay their debts now due to the United States according to thelr respective agreements. We have already canceled vast sums with no particular benefic to our people, and I da not approve their continuing high military appropriations at our expense. I prefer- fdcing the possible contingengy of repudiatian. to any further voluntary concessions by the United States in which we do not share direct benefits. “I see no reason for hasty action and do not favor a special session to con- sider any proposition I have seen re- ported in the press. I might be willing to consider modifying the present agree- ments if the debtor nations will formu- late & proposal which includes a bona fide, substantial and.immediate reduc- tion in military budgets. Such a plan might ‘enable us to effect appropriation ; savings to offset their faflure to meet contractual obligations, but much would depend on the nature of such proposals. “I am opposed to further burdening the American people with debts that ought to be paid by Europe.” (Copyright, 1932, by North American News- paper Alliance, inc.) 88,378 Jobless in Free State.

The French people have been educated, since the end of the war, to the idea that their debts to the United States, at least, will be paid by Ger- many, and it will be impossible. it 1s stated, to make them pay out of their own pockets the sums they owe this country. The situation in Great Britain is still more serious. The British, too, have been paying, until now, their debt to the Unifed States out of the German | reparations. They have received noth- ing from that source this year, and if they are required to pay the $95,000,000 they owe this country in December from | their taxes, this wili be an almost im- possible burden on the British treasury. Britain's difficulties are further in- creased by the fact that the pound sterling has slumped considerably this year and for every $1,000,000 they have to purchase in the open market to pay the United States they must pay $400,000 more in their own currency. While at the State Department today Ambassadors Claudel of France and May of Belgium also visited with Under- secretary Castle, who, & short time be- fore had been st the White House. McFadden Doubts Change. At the Capitol, meanwhile, the sub- ject remained a more or less animated topic among the members of Congress who are returning rapidly. Representa- tive McFadden, Republican, of Pennsyl- vania, told reporters he did “not see how any one could expect Congress to approve any further change in the present debt agreement.” That position also was taken by two other House members, Representative Rainey of Illinois, Democratic floor leader, and Representative McReynolds, Demccrat, of Tennessee, scheduled to be chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee. Any moratorium proposal, Rainey said, would “have trouble getting a | single vote from the present House.” | “I doubt whether it would even be brought before the House Ways and Means Committee for consideration,” he added. “That committee must approve any agreement involving debts.” McReynclds said he was opposed to any further reduction or to cancelation. McFadden lost his patronage and was | opposed for renomination by the regu- | lar Republican organizalion after a speech in the House last Winter in | which he sald President Hoover had “sold out to international bankers” by | granting the moratorium. | Blames State Department. “There is no question but that when | Mr. Hoover was talking with the French | premier, Laval, he egreed to a further consideration of debts,” he said today. | “The joint statement they issued showed that when it referred to possibie future changes for the ‘period of de- pression.’ | “Another big contributory cause to| | our troubles with European debtors is | that the State Department, through its | First _Mortgage Loans One of the advan- tages of investment in our 6% First Mortgages is that you can com- pute exactly what the return will be through- out the entire period for which the investment is made.

Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. PARIS, November 17.—Press dis- patches from Washington saying that the United States intends to refuse an extension of the war debts moratorium | are causing an effervescence in polit- ical circles here. Premier Edouard Herriot IS known to favor making France's December 15 payment if the United States insists. But most of the members of the Cham- | ber of Deputies, according to present indications, think otherwise. There is reason to believe that, if Herriot tries to get the chamber’s authorization to make this payment he will be immediately overthrown. This would be all the more likely, as his general political situatiod is none too strong anyway. May Block Lausanne Pact. It goes without saying that if the United States persists in its reported attitude France will refuse to ratify the Lausanne agreements, the repara- tlons issue will be resurrected, and, accerding to some PFrench commen- tators, it will then be impossible to unfreeze private credits to Germany. As nearly as can be judged, the moral indignation of French opinion toward the alleged American attitude is at least as fervent as the alleged moral in- dignation of American opinion toward the attitude of the European debtors. A prolonged international squabble, with high feeling and recriminations on both sides and with a corresponding slowing down of international negotia- tions like those affecting the Far East, disarmament and the world econamic] conference, is now reluctantly foreseen | only with what Gov. Roosevelt calls the | default. The guestion is how long the | hurling at him grenades of venom with in some well informed quarters. (Copyrisht. 1932.) tri; Guardees ACTION BY HOOVER ON DEBTS LIMITED President Is Restricted to! Immediate Question by Roosevelt’s Attitude. BY MARK SULLIVAN. The limitation put by Gov. Roosevelt | on his willingness to confer with Presi- | dent Hoover about foreign debts must postpone final arrival at a national pol- | icy. Under Gov. Roosevelt's limitation, President Hoover, because he has but four months in office, can properly deal “immediate question.” The “immediate | question” is the request of the Euro- pean governments for an extension of time on the installments due Decem- ber 15. This, of course, Mr. Hoover will be obliged to grant, subject to ratifica- tion by Congress. To do otherwise would amount to daring the debtors to | extension shall be. A natural term would be one year. Inevitably this will & mean another year during which this | question will be unsettled. Some will regret that there will not be full co- operation bstween President Hoover and Gov. Roosevelt and arrival at a final | policy at once. Must Decide on Plan. Whatever the length of the postpone- ment, the end of it will bring upon Gov. Roosevelt, as then President and as leader of his party, the necessity and for abiding by it throughout difficult negotiations with debtor governments and, above all, for lining up his party to support whatever is agreed upon. t will be difficult, for it brings to the front one of the deepest of the many cleavages within the intricate diversity of leaders and groups that brought about Mr. Roosevelt's election. Mr. | Hearst and Senator Hiram Johnson of California presumably will not depart from their shrill insistence that the United States “make 'em pay” to the last ‘cent. At the other end of the spectrum of Gov. Roosevelt's supporters, the Balti- more Sun is already demanding “end the tragic folly. The thing to do is to sweep the ghastly mess out of doors once and for all.” Between these ex- tremes, business and financial leacers | who are supporters of Mr. Roosevelt | will favor reasonable and realistic com- promise based on the unescapable facts. Must Choose Between Factions. The time is bound to come when Mr. Roosevelt must choose between groups | of his supporters. The realistic and | slightly cynical Prank Kent of the ! Democratic Baltimore Sun fixed six mouths as the time by which some of Mr. Roosevelt’s supporters would be which during the campaign they del- uged Mr. Hoover. As respects the debt question, how- ever, it is mainly with his party follow- ers in Congress that Mr. Roosevelt will be concerned. With them he should have better fortune than with unofficial extremists such as Mr. Hearst. The main wish of the Democrats holding office in Congress and elsewhere is that | Mr. Roosevelt should have a successful administration. The main requisite for fulfillment of that is economic recovery. | The .main requisite for business recov- | ery is a stable arrangement about inter- | government debts. MRS. EUGENIA G.

He proposed that submarines be abol- ished and that tanks should be limited to a size which prevents their offensive use in battle. It was proposed that heavy mobile land guns be limited to 105 ‘millimeters, which 1is the limit placed on Germany under the Versailles treaty. 1 As for air armaments, Sir John said: “We propose the entire abolition by international agreement of military and | naval machines and of bombing (apart from the use of such machines as are necessary for police puposes in outlying places), combined with ef- fective international control of civil aviation.
