PRIVATE BANKS KIT ASSIST TO FlipOPE House Will Not Oppose Such a Course of Action to Pay War Debts. By United Xetcs WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.—Any efforts by private American bankers to assist Europe in Its economic readjustment will meet with no objections from this Government, the White House has announced. But, it was made clear, this Government does not believe the subject of foreign debt is one for a general economic conference. Furthermore, this is not conducting any negotiations toward the funding of repayment of the allied debt except such as have been authorized by Congress, and no amendment of these negotiations or plans of settlement is being contemplated. it was said. The unofficial interest of the Government in the efforts of private American bankers toward European economic readjustment, it was said, lies in the hope that the pressure of commercial relations might bring about the desired adjustment. However, it was emphasized, because of international political considerations, any official steps on the part of this Government, cannot be taken at this time, other than considering on its individual merits each loan requested by European nations of private American bankers.
