opinion from several powerful bank
ers on the advisability OF cancelling
part or all of the $1,000, ,OOO, 600
foreign debt. the majority OF the
bankers OF the United States are op-
posed 70 any such step, Secretary
Mellon learned today.
The intimatlon OF Thomas W. La
mont. OF the Banking house of J. p.
and Company, that half Of
the debt could be cancelled, does not
meet with approval OF any admin
lstration officials, It was clearly indi-
Gated.

the American Bankers Association,
In convention in New York. would
go on record for cancellation. It is
here that an effort will
be made at the closing session of
the convention TO have the bank
ers declaring for partial cancellation
Of the debt.
