M'KENNA SEES NO
EBTSCANCELLED
Finds General Opinion in the
L. S. Is for Payment of
Foreign Loans.

Special Gable to THE New YoRK HusALD.
Copyright 1927, by THE New YORK HERALD.
SOUTHAMPTON, England, Nov. 10
Reginald McKenna, formerly Chancellor
OF the Exchequer, one Of the Leading
British finaneiers, who returned from
New York to-day, said on landing:
THE general opinion in the United
States is against the cancellation of the
foreign debts. Where the question is
understood--tha is to say, where the
people appreciate that the debts can
only be paid in the form of goods which
the United states would have to ac-
cept--there is q desire. I think, to can
eel the debts or make them the object OF
bargaining. but there is no general un-
derstanding in America of the nature OF
foreign debts and II is very doubtful
IL the United States Government ever
will be willing to cancel these. indi-
vidual members of the Government
nigh. be willing TO cancel the debts, but
would they have the power to do so in
the teeth Of public opinion?
II would like to add that cancellation
Of the debt due the United States by
the United Kingdom has never been
under discussion nor has any proposal
been made TO this effect so far as | am
aware.
In regard to the Washington con-
ference, the expectation In the United
States is that financial questions win
not be discussed, but behind this expec-
tation there is an admission of the pos
sibility that they cannot be excluded.
"In regard to trade conditions In
America, although the United States
Labor Board figures show NOR. than
100000 unemployed, it is not safe To
draw conclusions from these figures
They are COMPLIED IN a way which
would not be accepted as accurate in
the United Kingdom. No doubt there il
considerable unemployment In the United
States. but 1t is very much less than
with US. So far as ! could judge the
worst Of the bad times are over. 1t
would be too much TO say that we may
look for a revival Of prosperity I'm the
to see ups and downs, with n general
trend TO the better.
I'm my opinion, the financial difficult.
ties connected with foreign trade have
been cleared up. ann. although it win
be a considerable time y tore frozer
credits become liquid. the v.leral stabil
ity appears TO be good
"rn regard TO the value or sterling ir
