EUROPE'S

United States should participate ac-

Officials said.
-rraasnrv officials said today that
taxes necessary TO pay interest on
the public debt constitute about
one-taird of the governments en-
tire revenue.
Government economies have been
enforced to the utmost degree, and
still further economies are believed
possible but the savig<gs titls ef-
fected In governmental administra

tax demand on the average procket

The hope OF officials now IS that
American investors may find 1t
profitable to divert enough capital
abroad in sound securities to help
rectify some of the disorders in
foreign exchange and eventually
improve the fiscal status of the
countries listed as debtors for war
borrowings from the United States.
