BRITISH WOULD CANCEL DEBTS, NOTE INTIMATES Message, Addressed to European States, Apparently Meant for America.
SENT TO SIX NATIONS Great Britain, Communica-j tion Asserts, Wants Re- j lease from Payment. r LONDON. Aug. 1. The British foreign ofnee tonight issued the text of an important note on the question of inter-allied debts. 1 Though not formally addressed to the Washington government, hav ing been ostensibly meant only for some of the allied and awnodated powere, it evidently is intended primarily for consumption in the United States. Tho note places on formal record, on the eve of the coming conference between Premier Polncare and Prime Minister Lloyd-!eorge with representatives of Italy and Belgium In London, the British; government iews on the- question of lnter-allled Indebtedness and re-j pa rations. i Briefly the policy advocated 16 that it would be unjust to the British tax payer to ak him to forgive allied war debts while at the same time he wa.s required to Shoulder the indebtedness to America. Ple for SettlementThe note, which was addressed by the earl cf Barfour, acting foreign secretary to France, Italy, Jugoslavia, Rumania. Portugal and Greece, constitutes a strong plea for international settlement of debts and reparations on the basia of a general cancellation ot inter-allied Indebtedness and a generous reduction in German reparations and at the same time is the government's reply to those persons of the public and newspapers which have frankly advised cancellation -of the French. Italian and other allied debts to England, irrespective cf whether the United States was willing to cancel the British debt. v The note was to have been delivered to the United States as well, but at the 11th hour It was withdrawn. Reason for the withdraw; was given that It might have been ' construed as a request for remission ' of Britain's debt to America.
