regarding the payment OF war debts.

paid Off, and others have been greatly
reduced. In 1893. following the Revo-

United States was $sO,352 GA. 1t was
reduced year by year until 1912, when
It was $40 200, 737 During the war OF

II was 1927, S34 ,933. Then followed a
long period of steady yearly reduction
