Liberia Locking to America.

/ London, May 2S.-Proposal that tbs
United States alone should undertake
the whole responsibility Of the fl
nances Of Liberia IS made by CD. 3
King, Secretary Of State and Presi-
dent-elect Of Liberia, who is visiting
here
Mr.. King said the negotiations for q
loan OF $5;080,000 from the United
States government to Liberia had M:
been completed. At: present there was
an international receifershin tn which
Great Britain. France and the United
States were parties. AS this loan is to
+ be used in paving off the existing in
|ternational obligations" said Mf
King, 1T will necessarily follow thai
the United States. government will un-
dertake the whole responsibility t.
administer our finances. Negotiations
ON these points are now proceeding
between the American. British and
French governments and there may
he a withdrawal Of Great Britain and
France from the international re-
Iceive1ship in its present form; as the
receivership has not worked alto
gether, satisfactorily.
1T would simply mean that instead
of our having financial representa-
riyes of three powers assisting us In
applying our finances to the needs Of
The country we would have one set Of
officers and those nominated by the
