From The Tr!5ure's Woshinotor By-eou
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-Yn q hearing
before the House Ways and Means
Committee to-day, on the bill for the
refunding Of the foreign debt Secretary
of the Treasury Mellon opposed sug-
gestion of Representative Frear, of
Wisconsin, that the measure be post
poned until after the Limitation of
Armament Conference, which Mr.. Frear
said might discuss the debt question.
The Secretary said the situation called
for early action.
Mr.. Mellon explained to the commit
tee that the only authority now for re-
funding the foreign debt is in the Lib
erty Bond acts; that this country has
lent to other countries under differing
sets OF conditions, and that it is be-
cause ne desires 70 work out a uniform
agreement with other governments that
the refundlng measure is needed. With
regard to some of the smaller loans to
the weaker governments, he has no au
thorlty to act, though the loans arc
overdue, the Secretary said.
These loans should be refunded at
an early date to straighten out the
Treasury, as we'll as to give them a
fixed and stable status" said the Sec
retary. There is no thought of ac-
cepting repayment for these loans ex-
cept in American currency"
Impossible to Give Schedule
He said no schedule of payments
could be made because of conditions in
each of the debtor nations. The "bir
nations,' he continued, including
Franc" and Italy, were better able to
pay their debts than the smaller gov
ernments.
There has been no thought of a
general substitution of governments
Is Debtors sais Mr.. Mellon, "but only
a shifting of the character of securi-
debts as to guarantee or assure regu-
lar payment of interest until ma
turity."
Authority for substitution, the Sec
retary explained was desired because
il was impossible to foresee what con-
tingency might arise. In answer to
Mr. Frear he said he did not object
t. a provision prohibiting substitution
of German or Austrian bonds for Sc
curities given this country by Allied
powers.
Mr.. Frear asked many questions, in
dicating objections to the scope of the
authority granted. He wanted to know
if there was any intention on the part
of the Conference on Limita ton of
Armament to discuss the war debts
None at all that l know Of" said
the Secretary.
We'll, then. is there any objection
to waiting until after the conference to

Shipping Board
Slashes Rate on
British Cargoes
Will Garry Cottonseed From
Egypt to United Kingdom
Cheaper Than England's
Charges, London Is Told
Bitter Competition Seen
American Vessels May Load
for Ports in Domain of
Rival Without Limitation

LONDON, Oct. THE 'Times" learns
in connection with the Egyptian cotton
freight controversy that information
ha. been received from Alexandria
that the United States Shipping Board
is prepared to carry cottonseed to the
United Kingdom at freights shilling
a ton below the British rates, and is
further prepared to pay the difference
between the rates of insurance charged
for cargo carried in American vessels
and the lower rates of insurance quoted
for British steamships.
The Times reviewing the contro-
versy, says it represents the British
shipping position. For many years past,
adds the paper, the custom Of cotton
merchants has been to make a yearly
contract with British lines for the ship
ment of all their cotton to the United
Kingdom and the United States. Early
last year the United States Shipping
Board showed interest in the contract,
and it's representatives at Alexandria
put forward the demand that the whole
of the United States direct shipment
should be left to Shipping Board yes
sells. These representatives further de-
clared that unless the demand was com
piled with, rates would be cut in all
directions.
The review relates how the British
lines secured the contract until Au-
gust 81, 1921, and later, after the
British and American tenders had been
submitted, the contract also for the
1921-1922 season. This latter contract
was accepted, although the quotation
Of the British lines per ton for United
Kingdom destinations was FIVE shillines
higher tnan the American. Then il
was alleged that improper methods
were used in securing the contract
after which negotiations were begun
between the Shipping Board and the
British lines. The Times" declares
that these were virtually satisfactorily ly
completed when stopped by instruc
tions from Washington.
The review continues:
"lt now seems that, under the Jones
act, because the British lines refused
to give up almost their entire Ameri-
can rights under a contract which they
obtained in open and fair competition
and have held for many years, their
steamers may be refused the common
right Of entry into ports of the United
States with q cargo from a country
under British influence.
at further appears that in conse-
quence of q breakdown. which was
abruptly terminated by the United
States Shipping ,ard campaign, active
competition is to be started. and il ia
reported from Alexandria that Ameri-
can ships are to be loaded for United
Kingdom ports with all descriptions of
general cargo at cut rates. This seems

for free tolls for American coastwise
trade through the Panama Canal. On
the other hand, Senator Colt, of Rhode
Island, spoke in opposition to it and
| held that the question should be sub
mitted TO arbitration.
Senator Calder pointed out that the
British charge at Washington in 1912
"distnctly and specifically stated that
the provisions of the Hay-Pauncefote
The Senator sad the British govern
ment at that time had not "the slight
est idea" Of protesting free tolls for
American coastWise ships.
1T has always seemed to me that we
were guilty of lack of courage of the
eravest character in 1914 when we per
mitted ourselves under the stress of
the demand of the President" said
Senator Calder "to enact legislation
based upon a subsequent protest of
the British government, without even
submitting the question to arbitration
He quoted Mr.. Knox, formerly Secre-
tary of State, rs saying American pub
lie opinion had we'll grounded suspi-
cion that he English contention was
ain the interest OF the English stock
and bond-holders in the Canadian Pa
cic and other Pacific railroads." He
also quoted Theodore Roosevelt as ia
voring free tolls for the American
coastwise shipping and as saying: II
believe the only damage that would be
done is the damage to the Canadian
Pacific Railway"
Senator Colt said he could not sup
mort the free tolls bill. He said the
Hay parncefote treaty could he inter
treted - two wavs. and there was m
4ou5t OF tde power ci the Nnlted
States to enact free tolls bill. At

Mr.. Mellon said authority was nee

should be done to enable the country
to get on her feet. One suggestion is
to release the lien under her present
debt to this country so that Austria
can make other loans under which she
can rehabiitate herself

nuAist riots and bomb outrages have

that this would involve an immediate
