The refunding of American loans

Of plans for payments, will be de-

a member Of the commission.
A proposal from foreign repre-

consideration to the relations OF the

selves, and with each other. has
been rejected definitely by the
American Commission. It was

"There II to be no meeting of

sent a uniform payment plan" said
n member Of the American Com

foreign representatives might be
able to outvote the American Com.

plan which the American Commits
sion thought best to reject. The
American Commission will hold the
right to impose its own plan of
settlement. Each debtor nation win
be considered as to It's own financial
condition. and settlement plans will
be arranged according to each ma.

The commission will start its
