Nails Rumor of Ceding Island to U. S. for Debt is, Feb. 11.—The French gove ernment’s policy, it was said ut the | foreign office today, remains stoutly opposed to the cession of any French | territory. This expression was drawn out by the publication in the news- paper Excelsior of a paragraph state ing that it believed the United States | would not reject the idea of cancelling | the French debt in exchange for the | French West Indies, The Excelsior's item, nevertheless, has revived discussion of the possibile ity of an arrangement under which the war debt might be wiped out in exchange for French islands that might be useful to the United States, | A number of the members of the French senate are favorable to this plan, it is declarcd. Significance is also attached herc to the newspaper's | suggestion because of the fact that its owner, Paul Dupuy, recently re« turned from a visit to the United s in the course of which he saw at many leading public men, It is remarked, likewise, that M..Du- puy would probably not have been | inclined to launch the idea had he |not known there was considerable | support for it here, | The project, however, in addition to ‘hr-ing contrary to the policy of the present French government, a fact now reiterated, meets with objections | from sentimental considerations. Mar- | tinlque, for instance, is regarded as ‘q:ma as much a part of France as Paris, It is represented in parlia- ment on the same footing and its in- habitants enjoy all the advantages of I'rench citizenship. Thus, it is heldf | in official circles, this sentimental op- | position to such a deal would have to be overcone before France could | think seriously of it, although it is conceded that there is support for it in important quarters, including an influential senatorial group.
