WASHINGTON, Jan. 2 (copyright, 1920].—Loans by the Government of the United States to England or France are out of the question. Pub- Heation of a story to the effect that Viscount Grey went home with the pledge of the Wilson Administration for a $13,000,000,000 loan has re- vived the subject of international finance and given tho Treasury De-| partment an opportunity to place its » j jews unequivocally before the pub-| | ri ic. Here is the way one of the As- jjistant Secretaries of the Treasury 1 ast it: \ “If England really wanted $1:3,000,-| { 000,000 in credits in the United} States she could not spend that) jount in five years.
