Asked what progress Europe was now
making toward getting on it's feet
economically, Sir George said that
things are gradually resuming, but very
slowly, although Great Britain and Bel
gium are getting back better than the
rest Of the former belligerents. -
Provision Of credit, he said, is the
starting point in the movement toward
the normal. Europe needs" he said,
"all the surplus of all the world" ~

The Briton then explained that he
felt that only such comprehensive
plan as he proposes will stop the de-
moralization Of exchange rates on Eu-.
rope. Some months ago he predicted
that the pound sterling would drop to-

Subsequently the value of the pound
dropped as low as 1886. aae,
preciate still further or do you share
the view Of some British bankers that
the pound will be worth $3.50 before

Quired.
Credit Breakdown Danger e~
"If the plan of mine," he answered,
But unless something is done there is
danger Of complete breakdown of
credit. There is no reason to believe
the bottom has been reached"
From various Continental sources in
timations came all through 1919 that
it would be desirable to pool the credit
of the world. but American bankers
took the view that that would mean
passing the, money bag to America, as
serting that this country would merge
its financial strength with the financial
weakness Of Europe.
Sir George said he did not think
that criticism was wholly sound, for
without Americas participation : in
such scheme there would be q great
economic collapse, in which ultimately
the United States would share.

report that Sir George had come over

Nine Of II Cords Taken From
Ex-Champion's Farm Given

/ KANSAS CITY. Mo-, Jan. 3.-Jess
Willard, former heavyweight champion,
was cleared Of charges of profiteering
in the sale of cord wood, and was dis
charged by United States Commissioner
Claflin, in Kansas City, to-day. No
witnesses for the defense were heard.
1t had been charged that. Willard had
violated provisions Of the Lever act
in charging excessive price for cord
wood cut from his farm near Topeka,
Kan.
Witnesses for the government testi-
fed that Willard had at frst set a price
of IS a cord "in the stump" for the
wood, but when told that was too high

were found who could not pay for the

my own solution" Sir George said
to interviewers in the smoking room at
the Hotel Plaza yesterday, "is simply
this. 1t is very difficult problem, but
. problem which it is the special func-
tion Of the proposed league Of nations
to deal with. It is the duty Of the
league to take care Of all the world.
And, as this is a world problem, it is
up to the league Of nations to find a
solution. sS
"If there were complete breakdown
OF credit, such as is threatened, every
country would suffer. 1t is therefore
essential to prevent breakdown in
the interest of everybody and the
league Of nations can prevent that
breakdown by pooling the credit of it's
members.
$5,oc00 000, 600 from Britain
"The total sum needed to do the job,

Europe, but also of rcconstructing the
devastated areas, would be, according to
my calculations, $35,00O,OO0, ,O00 Of
this $15,000,0 100000 would be used for

to reconstruct the devastated areas.
This work of reconstruction needs to
be done at once. And the money from
Germany in the form of reparation will
come slowly over long period Of
years. These payments could be used
to help liquidate the new debt created
by an international bond issue.
"The proposed international bond is
sue should be, in my opinion, free Of
taxes in all countries and should bear
interest at the rate of 4 per cent, with
per cent laid aside each year for
be paid off in forty-two years. AS far
as Europe is concerned, the obligations
ought to be secured by first lien on
all revenues"
Asked how much Of the obligations
the United States government ought to
assume, Sir George said that that would
necessarily be matter Of negotiation,
but that he thought Great Britain
would be willing to guarantee $5,000,-
100000 Of the international bonds, a
sum about equal to her indebtedness
to the United States Treasury at pres
ent.
"The purpose in mihd," the former
editor Of "'The Status" who is now a
contributor to "The Globe" Of London,
said, "is to arrange to supply raw ma
terials and food to Europe and to ar
range the kind of securities which the
sellers know to be good. Interna-

cause it would mean more imitation.
