We miss thy kind and loving hands,

new PLAN FOR
FOREIGN DEBTORS
Nations Will be Permitted to
Fund Interest of Their
Obligations.
RY LOUIS LTDLnM.

WASHINGTON. Feb. p. - For
eign nations which are debtors TO
this country TO the extent of $9,-
5OO,O0O,OOO viii be permitted TO
fund the interest on this obligation
over a period OF three years. They
will be compelled. however, to pay
additional interest on this funded
interest, the treasury department
has been informe dby Rep. J. w.
Fordney, chairman of the ways and
means COMMITTEES
Asst. Sec'y OF the Treasury Davis
in conference with the members
OF the ways and means committee,
promised to prepare and present
10 the committee within "A short time
@ complete statement OF the attitude
Of the treasury and to outline the
plan for settlement Of foreign loans
Mr. Fordney insisted that Mr.. Davis
favored a plan which would not
compel the foreign debtors 70 pay
interest on the accumulated interest.
According TO figures presented by
Mr. Fordney the interest at 5 per
cent on the total obligations of SO,
500, 100000 would amount 10 s475.-
OOO. 900 a year. or for the three-year
period, $1,425.0OO,0OO If the for
eign nations were permitted 10 es-
cape paying interest on this total o
$1,425,OO0, 900 Mr. Fordnev con
tended the United States eventually
would lose more than $1,000, 900,
coo.
To Permit Funding.
The suggestions made by Mr.
Davis. il is understood. would per
NIT the funding of the interest for
three years. At the end of the third
year the foreign nations would pay
the annual interest of $475, 100000
for the fourth year and in addition
"A part of the accumulated interest
Of S1.425,OO0.OOO The nations
would be given 15 years in which
20 pay the accumulated interest Ac-
cording TO Mr.. Fordney. Mr.. Davis
insisted the figures as to a possible
loss of S1.OOO.OOC.OOO if interest or
interest was not paid were in error
and that the total loss would not
be much more than one-half this
amount. Before the committee takes
any action Mr.. Davis viii present
estimates 10 support his assertion.
The committee also has virtually
decided TO enact legislation govern
ing the funding Of this interest and
the payment Of interest on all for
eign loans. The treasury depart
ment has insisted il had authority
TO fund this interest, but added that
il would abide by any decision OF
congress and Ito prevent any one
running Wild il was said the COM
mittee would lay down rules for the
payment OF principal and interest
The foreign interest question is
bound up with the foreign relations
in general as much III feeling has
been aroused against this country
bv persons abroad who have in
sisted that the United States should
not only waive interest but also
should waive the payment Of the
Principal The contention Of the
foreign nations has been that the
United States was only contributing
its bit 70 win the war by advancing
money while the other nations con
tributcd men and ammunition.
