MUNITIONS ISSUE
Is PUT ASIDE


NEW YORK, Sept. 2l.--NIunitions of
war will not be allowed to block the pro-
posed big credit loan to Great Britain
and France: nor will the 5000, 10000 or
$500 900. 900 to be secured be locked up
at once in a New York treasure chest,
according TO a consensus of opinion yes
terday of those in close touch with ne
gotiations for raising the money.
ut would be absurd" said a banker
who has been in almost daily conference
with the commission, "to assume that
the whole problem of stabilizing eN-
change and thus providing for continu-
ance Of all American exports viii be
halted over discussion as to whether
a credit loan should be made available
for munition payments. The big thing
is TO stabilize the exchange; then the
matter of paying for munitions auto
matically will take care of ITSELF
Exports of munitions, it was esti-
mated. constitute considerably less than
% per cent. of the total value of Ameri-
can shipments to Great Britain and
France. Leaving them out of calcula-
tions, If provision be made for the ship
ment of soil products and the chief
manufactured articles, exchange viii, in
the opinion of bankers, become stabil-
lied. 1t would not then be difficult 10
find a method of paying for munitions, if
II were absolutely necessary to adopt
a different method, it is believed. Gold
or A rican securities or both, or even
some other method of payment could
be arranged.
On this point the Anglo-F French
Commission was said to be substanti-
ally in accord with the views Of their
American associates The commission
is reported TO have taken the attitude
that their first task was to stabilize
exchange; and that the matter Of pay
ing for munitions. which was said re-
Gently to have become question Of
considerable variance of opinion, is
o he subordinated TO this.
An attempt 10 obtain an expression
)f the commissions views from Basil
3. Blackett. the secretary. was unsuc-
.essful Alr. Blackett was seen by in
reviewers. but declared that he had
nothing whatever to say. He likewise
declined to comment on any Of sew
eral rumors current in Wall street
today.
II was reported on good authority
that the tentative proposals now up
for adoption provide for installment
subscriptions TO the loan on the part
Of the guarantors, such installments
TO be paid as necessity arises for the
. use Of funds. In some quarters it
was assumed that the sum each bank
should pledge would be payable in
four equal installments, subject TO
call, and that bonds would be issued
as each installment was paid. In this
manner the commission would avoid
the payment Of interest on the entire
loan long before all the funds were
needed.

Another suggestion. said to have
been embodied in the proposals, was
that the money each bank would

main in the bank guaranteeing II un-
til occasion should arise for its use.
Then, il was said each of the big
syndicate of underwriting banks
would be called upon for its proper
tionate amount. using the ratio OF the
sum desired to the whole sum as the
basis of the assessment For instance,
should one bank subscribe for $1,000
900 Of the bonds, the full amount
would be left in its vaults. it was
thought, simply being transferred on
its books 10 the credit of the loan
syndicate.
With this having been done, should
il be found desirable to have one
fourth of the entire credit available
in New YORK, the bank would be call
ed upon to transfer one-fourth of its
subscription to New York, or $3.50. 600.
The idea of tying up the full amount
Of the loan at once seemed to be un-
attractive to both parties to the nego-
tiations.
Many American bankers were of the
opinion that the one-half of per cent.
allowed them for their services would
be on that basis for each year of the
loan. Thus. if the loan should run
five years. it was thought the banks
would obtain the bonds at 81 II, or
1-2 per cent five times one-hslf of
1 per cent, below par
Another proposed feature, II was
reported, was that the short term
bonds, whether FIVE or ten years.
should include the privilege of con-
version to long term British and
French government bonds, paying 4
1-2 per cert. interest at the end OF
the short term period. BY that time
It was thought, the war would have
passed into history and the long term
bonds. berg a first mortgage on Great
Britain and France. and having a life
of so or 100 years, would be regarded
as a prime investment and would
fetch more than par.

ment, the situation was said to be en-
couraging In this connection IL wal
