LONDON, Oct. 81. - Great
Britain is planning a great. spec
tacular move on the very eve of
the Washington disarmament con-
ference toward cancellation of al
lied debts.
The International News Service
was informed by high British
authority today that Great Britain
is considering a definite plan to
wipe out all debts owed her by the
other allied nations.
Attitude Of Public In Doubt.
The movement has the approval
OF the Cabinet, the Treasury, and
the Foreign Office, II was learned.
Business men also have indicated
they favored such a movement. The
only doubt remaining is whether the
British public will take kindly to the
proposal.
British officials pointed out that
such a step would enormously en-,
hance British prestige and would
have a strong influence upon ex.
change throughout the world in IA
vor Of Great Britain and would give
the empire strong grip OH uni
versal markets. 1t also, 1t was
stated. would help to solve the un-
employment problem.
1t Is likely the government will
embark upon an intensive campaign
OF propaganda, awaiting the most IA
vorable moment to make announce
