HUGE LOAN
FOR THE ALLIES
Present Authorization will
Be Exhausted Within
Three or Four Months
(By Associated Press.l

Washington, July 17.-Unless the
unforeseen develops. congress prob
ably will be asked before adjourn
ment of the present session to au-
thorize another gigantic loan TO the
allies. The present authorization OF
$4,000, 100000 will be exhausted with
in from three to four months at the
rate at which the government is
lending money to entente govern
ments.
Indications are that the amount of
the second authorization will be no
less than the first and may so as high
as $4,000. 900, 900.
There Is every reason to believe
that the administration policy Of
financing the allied governments for
purchases they make in this country
will be continued during the period OF
the war, and that the vast sums to
be loaned them in the future will be
loaned as in the past, at the same
rate Of interest the American gov
eminent will have TO pay for the
money and on the security Of entente
government bonds.
While no official announcement has
been made of what the government
intends to do toward continuing to
finance the allies when the present
loan Of $4,000, 900, 900 is exhausted, It
is shown that nearly one-half of the
$4,000, 100000 already has been ex-
hausted, the amount totaling S1,302, =
900, 900, and this covers the financing
of only two months and 20 days.

Continual refusal to grant a. full

by a threat of general strike If
the diet postpones the passage of the
