SON, Says No Such Plan Would Be
Considered Now.

Secretary of the Treasury Wadsworth.
The committee is considering the ad-
ministration bill for the refunding of
the foreign loans of this country.
! The British chancellor of the ex-
cheQuor. 1t was revealed had cabled
United States six months earlier. de-
claring that the British would well
come a general cancellation OF inter-
governmental debts.
Mr.. Lloyd George in his letter to
President Wilson. asked the latter's
advice as to the best methods by
| which the whole question Of the in
terallied debts could be settled. with
the United States acting in concert
| with the other naions.
Secretary Mellon Of the Treasury
Department, who was before the Sem
ate committee yesterday. in reply to
questions denied that the proposal for
the cancellation of the foreign debts
had been broached to him since he
| assumed Office, and said that it would
not be considered if the suggestion
were made.
No Answer Mentioned.
No testimony was given by the
Treasury officials yesterday as to
whether President Wilson replied to
the two communications OF the Brit
ish officials. The committee adjourned
until today.
The full text Of the excerpt of Pre-
mier Lloyd Georges letter, as read to
the committee. follows:
II come now ID the other question
I wish to write to you about and that
is the knotty problem of interallied
Rathbone (the American unofficial
representative on the reparations
commission) long ago that I would
write to you about 1t. but I have had
to put it off for one reason and an
other till now.
'The British and the French gov
ernments have been discussing dur
ing the last four months the question
of giving fxity and definiteness to
Germany's reparations obligations:
The British government has stood
steadily by the view that 1t vas vital
that Germany's liabilities should be
fxed at q figure which 1t was within
the reasonable capacity to pay, and
that this figure should be fixed with
out delay. because the reconstruction
could the allies themselves raise
money on the strength OF Germany's
obligation to pay them reparations
until their liabilities were defined ex-
actly.

LONG COLUMN FOLLOWS
WAR HERO TO GRAVE
Full Military Honors Paid Private
Monson Of Lost Battalion
Fame.

NEW YORK, July 15.-Full military
honors marked the funeral today of
Private John J. Monson, hero of the
lost battalion" who died in Bellevue
Hospital after being taken ill while
on leave Of absence fDm his post in
the Regular Army.
Monson died last Friday. and ii was
three days before his body was identi-
fed. AS soon as 1t became known that
he was the man who on September 2s.
1918. carried the message through the
German lines that reunited the lost
battalion in the Argonne scores of
civic organizations planned that fit-
ting honors might be paid him at his
funeral.
Today a column fve blocks long
marched behind the caisson that car
ried the body to the Church of the
Ascension, where q high requiem
mass was said. and thence to Cypress
Hills cemetery, where military serv-
ices were held.
Technically Monson was absent
without leave at the time Of his death,
but military officials declared the
charge was dropped when it was
learned that he was Ill in a hospital
at the time he was supposed to re-
turn to duty.
Movements have been started to
erect a memorial to the heroic soldier.

pointed out that 1t was impossible FOL
France to agree to accept anything

same way.
| This declaration appeared to the
| British government eminently fair
but. after careful consideration. they
came to the conclusion that it was
| was owed to them by France, except
| as part and parcel Of all-around set
tlement of interallied indebtedness.
II need not go into the reasons
must be clear to you. But the princi-
pal reason was that the British pub
lie opinion would never support a
one-sided arrangement at its sole ex-
pense. and If such a one-sided ar
rangement were made it could not
bitter the relations between the
American and British people. with
calamitous results to the future of
| the world.
Britain borrowed from the United
States about half as much as its total
loans to the allies and after Amer
ica's entry into the war it lent to
the allies almost exactly the same
amount as it borrowed from the
ish government has informed the
French government that it will agree
to any equitable arrangement for the
reduction or cancellation of inter-
allied Indebtedness. but that such
arrangement must be one that ap-
plies all around.
Would Welcome Advice.
"As you know. the representatives
of the allies and Germany are meet

of reparation. I recognize that in the
midst of a presidential election and
with Congress not In session, 1t Is
impossible for the United States to
deal with this question in a practical
manner. but the question is ono Of
such Importance to the future of
Europe. and. indeed. to the relations
bctween the allied and associated
powers. that I should very much well
come any advice which you might feel
yourself able to give me as to the best
method by which the whole problem
could be considered and settled by
cert with its associates at the earliest
possible moment that the political
situation in America makes 1t pos
sible.
There is one other point which I
would like to add. When the British
government decided that 1t could not
