AMERICAS DUTY
TO GIVE CREDITS
French Paper Says {. :. Should Sup
ply Accounts as Large as Re-
quircd TO Allies.

Paris. Aug. 6.-The Journal Des
Debats. in a prominent review OF
finance yesterday calls attention that
It is Americas imperative duty to rec
Ognize obligations toward France
which It cannot escape and that it
must open credits to the allies as large
as may be required without which they
cannot continue the war The article
points out that the status of the United
States IS different now that she is in
the war. and says that it must not ex-
peCt the same securities as when her
standing was on a private basis
The review opens with a resume of
existing conditions which require urg-
entity that purchases outside of France
must be restricted 10 the lowest pos
sible limits, for If the country shows
a willingness to Gus down internal eX-
peuses and do without all imported
luxuries then it viii have right to
cali on the allies for all needed 5nan-
Cial aid. The allies know. the review
adds, that France IS in peculiar pc
sitions with the richest districts inyad-
ed dependent along time solely upon
Itself. and short Of labor
England, on which we depend for
coal and many other things would not
dream Of refusing us credit for pur-
chases We make there, the. article
continues.
We rely on her not to demand inn
mediate payment for our purchases.
without granting us any time at mo
ment when we are short of money to
settle would purely and simply put us
i'm a position Of being unable TO con
tinue the war The allies, in accord
ing us the credit necessary 10 reEu-
late our purchases. contribute not only
to the credit of the allies but give Us
chance to live and fight by their
sides. What has just been said about
our agreements with England applies
equally as well to the relations he
tween England, France and the United
States
"The latter are in effect suppliers
Of the allies of Europe and the allies
depend much more on America than
we do on England lille America
was still neutral It puId limit its
credit to us and demand that we pay
in gold a large part of our purchases.
but now that it has entered the war it
would be folly on their part to wish
to continue to act this way. It is abb
s0lute1y necessary that it furnish Eng
land and France with all they need
1t is realized that i'm America every
one has not taken into account the eE-
fgeucies of the situation"
