Wants U. S. Alone
to Finance Liberia

London, June 26.-Proposa1 that
the United States alone should un-
derstand the whole responsibility of
the finances of Liberia is made by
C. d. B. King, Secretary of State and
President-elect of Liberia, who is
visiting here.
Mr.. King said the negotiations for
loan of $5,000.000 from the
United States Government to Lii
IBERIA had not been completed. At
present there was an international
receivership to which Great Bri-
tain, France and the United States
were parties. "As this loan is to
be used in paying off the existing in
ternational obligations" said Mr.
King. 'bt will necessarily follow that
the United States Government will
undertake the whole responsibility
to administer our finances. Negotia-
tions on these points are now pro-
ceeding between the American, Brit
ish and French governments and
there may be a withdrawal of Great
Britain and France from the inter-
national receivership in its present
form; as the receivership has not
worked altogether satisfactorily.
ut would simply mean that in
stead of our having financial repre-
sentatives of three powers assisting
us in applying our finances to the
needs of the country we would have
one set of officers and those nomi-
mated by the United States Govern
ment."
