by the banks whereby a loan will be
raised to render financial assistance to
devastated districts OF France and Bel
GUM, also for industry in Italy. and
possibly to other small countries in
Jured by the war. The idea emanates
from American sources, a leading Amer
lean banker being at present in this
country discussing II In important con-
ferences OF bankers which are being
held here. The participants include
bankers from the United States, Eng
land and the Netherlands.
"It Is proposed to form an fnterna-
tional consortium of bankers In position
to lend and the consortium shall appoint
committee to decide. by inquiry. as
to when. how and where the money can
best be lent. The present suggestion is
that money subscribed for the purpose
by the public shall be at 7 per cent"

severity of the terms, with univer-
sal tendency to see in this triumph

tieularly with respect to the economic

opinion is general that the Presidents

through the clever use by Lloyd

This Is revealed in the recognition
df the league in the Saar, Polish and

absolute veto power In the future
over the leagues deliberations. This
