Chance of Tax Relief,

But unless Europe can begin paying
back to the United States Aome OF those
nine billions borrowed. and that annual
interest payment of $3.50, 900 ,on0 Of gold,
there will he no material reduction in
the amount Of income taxes which the
American people must pay,
While some relief from heavy taxation
can be promised for next year the like
lihood Of heavy taxation over a period
Of 10 years depends largely on how Eu-
rope rehabiitRtes herself financially
how she RECEIVERS her Industrial CapaCi-
IS and productive power
Tie treasury experts say Significantly
moreover that unless the United states
breaks down nor tariff walls and buys
some Of the goods thar Europe produces,
the ability OF Europe TO buy our tro-
mendous supply of exports will dimin-
ish and her power to pay Interest on
her debts will correspondingly be weak
ened
They add. too, that the United states
has only one practical way Of collecting
the money she loaned to Europe dur
ing the war and insuring herself of a
steady income on interest from Europe,
and that IL to stay on the inside OF the
lluropenn situation, MS she Is today and,
by membership In the league Of nations,
assist In guaranteeing Europe financial
solycncy by throwing her moral and
material support TO the political stahll-
ization Of the worH All Of which comes

Treasury Experts View.

The treasury experts are inclined to
think that at bottom the same princi-
pie may be applied In trying to analyZe
the drop in English pounds sterling and
French francs,
They believe that while the allies are
much better off than Germany, never
theless their immense debts to the Unit
cd States for example, and their own
shortage Of commodities which requires
them to pay high prices abroad To get
| necessaries Of life, In cramping painful
| ly. Moreover, treasury officials believe
that the people OF Europe are psycholo-
| Eically apprehensive. They do not know
where all the present unrest will wind
up
| They are fearful Of the worst They
see no political stability anywhere They
| see the United States delaying action
| on the peace treaty They wonder II
| there Is anything wrong with the treaty
or with the United States
Anyway. they are confused. cautious,
uncertain, They see Germany hesitate
to Sign the protocol and the allies
| threatening military measures They
see neutral countries withdrawing their
balances In London,
Indeed every factor that could pos
slhlv bring foreign exchange down Is OPP
| erative.
How doeH'all this affect the people OF
| the United States? II Is true that the
| interest which the United States gov
| eminent has guaranteed on the Liberty
bonds bought during the war Is assured
| OF payment because the money gathered
| from income taxes especially provides
! for that.

Being Worked Out.

Briefly the plan which is being worked
out in London and Washington through
conferences between representatives of
the treasury and foreign governments
contemplates postponement for three
years OF the payment Of interest But
that does not mean that Europe is to
be permitted to cancel any of her war
debt TO the United States or any pOr-
ton Of the interest.
When the three years have elapsed
Europe win be required, under the
terms OF an international agreement
now being drawn, to pay not only the
$3.50, 600 900 due for the year 1928, for
example, but a portion OF the back in
tcrest due for the years 1890, 1921 and
l922, as wen as a portion for a sinking
fund on the main principal. During a
period yet 10 be specified. Europe will
be obliged TO catch up on the back in
terost which will have been deferred In
the next three years.
But those three years OF grace are
expected to enable Europe to get on
her feet and start production going
II Is not TO be denied that last nights
reports OF the drop in English pound
sterling from prewar level of $4S7 TO
$50 and the decrease in the value OF
the franc from SIS for a dollar to II
francs for an American dollar and the
corresponding depreciation of the Ital-
ian lire from a parity with francs before
the war to 10 lire for an American dollar
caused considerable comment in treas
ury circles here.
The fact that German marks are sell
ing az q cents today as against a pre-
war quotations of 20 cents is perfectly
well understood because Of the unsettled
condition OF Germany today and her
immense debt TO the allies in the form
Of PREPARATION for damage done during
the war
