BRITAIN MAKES NO PLANS FOR DEBT PAYMENT Budget Ha§ No Provision for Annuities After Holiday Ends. By T'it*4 Prrt LONDON, May 26 —Great Britain ; has made no arrangement to pay war debt annuities to the United States after expiration cf the Hoover moratorium. Major Walter E. Elliot, financial secretary of the treasury, informed the house of commons today. Elliot was asked by George Lambert if an arrangement had been made to pay the annuities after ex- , piration of the moratorium, in addition to the agreement for paying the annuities suspended during the moratorium. Elliot merely referred him to the budget speech of Neville Chamberlain, chancellor of the exchequer, and the statement of Sir John Simon Wednesday. Chamberlain said no provision had been made in the current budget for payments to the United States, and Sir John announced the agreement for paying the suspended annuities in ten years. “Are we to understand.” Lambert pursued, “that no further arrangement has been made for payment to the United States except what I has been stated before in the i house?” "Yes, sir, up to the present time,” Elliot replied. Elliot said British war debt payments to the United States to date total 326.200,000 pounds sterling, while British receipts from repara- , tions and war debts, including the United Kingdom’s share of the pro-

ceeds of the German government 54 per cent loan, totaled 200,782.000 pounds. “The deficit, including interest at 5 per cent, on both *ddes of the account is about 200,000,000 pounds,” he said.
