 be the principal task of the economic conference. Other questions, which the American delegates probably would be authorized to consider, would be the stabilization of international exchange and various economic issues involved in trade relations between the different countries, also the financing of Euro pean purchases from the United States If such measure is presented to Con gross, it may include stipulation that American representatives would have no authority to agree to the can cellation of any part of the principal or interest of the foreign indebtedness. As Congress has indicated that its sen timent is strongly against any cancel lation a restriction of this nature prob ably would be insisted upon.
 Whether President Harding should take the initiative in extending an in- vitation to other countries to join in such a general conference is one of the matters under discussion. Some of the administration advisers believe it would be prefera Dle to have the debtor nations take the initiative.

 Many of the Republican congress sional leaders believe that it would be desirable that such conference should he held in Washington. If the invita- tons are issued by another country, however, it might be held in Europe.
 The administration foreign loan re- funding bill is stranded in the Senate finance committed The bill was passed by the House with numerous amend ments. accepted by the administration. The Senate finance committee added still other amendments. the restric- tions placed upon the proposed con- mission finally being so numerous that Secretary of the Treasury Mellon noti- fled the committee that the administra- tion felt that it was almost useless to press the bill further unless some of the amendments were dropped.
 Conferences are in progress between the administration and~ congressional leaders looking toward fresh start with a new bill embodying the idea of a general economic conference. It is presumed that the American delegates would be appointed in much the same manner as is proposed in the case of the commission contemplated under the pending bill. This commission, the bill provides. would consist of the secre- tary of state and four others appointed by the president.
