BRITISH WOULD.
CANCEL DEBTS.
NOTE INTIMATES.
Message, Addressed to Euro
pean States, Apparently
Meant for America.
SENT TO SIX NATIONS
Great Britain, Communica-
ton Asserts, Wants Re-
lease from Payment.

LONDON, Aug. 1.-The British
foreign Office tonight issued the
text Of an important note on the
question of inter-allied debts.
Though not formally addressed TO
the Washington government. hav-
ing been ostensibly meant only for
some OF the allied and associated
powers, ii evidently is intended pri-
marily for consumption in the Uni
ted States.
The note places on formal re-
cord, on the eve OF the coming con-
ference between Premier Poincare
and Prime Minister Lloyd George
with representatives Of Italy and
Belgium in London, the British
government views on the question
Of inter-allied indebtedness and re-
parations.
Briefly the policy advocated lie
that it would be unjust TO the Bril-
fish tax payer to ask him 10 for
give allied war debts while at the
same time he was required TO
shoulder the Indebtedness to Anne
RIGA.
Plea for Settlement
The note. which was addressed
by the earl of Barbour, acting for
eign secretary to France, Italy,
JGgo-Slavia, Rumania, Portugal
and Greece. constitutes strong
plea for international settlement
of debts and reparations on the
basis of a general cancellation OF
ipter-allied Indebtedness and a
generous reduction in German re-
parations and at the same time is
the governments reply 70 those
persons Of the public and news
papers which have frankly advised
cancellation OF the French. Italian
and other allied debts to England
irrespective of whether the United
States was willing TO cancel the
British debt.
The note was to have been deliv-
cred to the United States as well
but at the 18th hour IL was with
drawn. Reason for the withdrawa'
was given-that 1t might have beer
construed as A request for remission
of Britains debt to America.
The British government, while
desiring to avoid tellng America III
rectly that she considers payment
contingent on collecting from her
continental debtors, is nevertheless
considered to have conveyed that in
formation to Washington by its for
NAL note to the other powers.
Allied debtors of England are al
so to be presented with notes.
This latest move of Great Britain
which has called forth columns OF
newspaper comment here. in when
II is hoped that the United States
will not misunderstood. is consider
ed as q reversal of the earlier posi-
ton of England.
II had been semi officialiy stated
that Great Britain had decided to
fund the United States debt regard
less OF action made by European ma
tons 10 settle the war obligations
with England.
The Times. editorially, wonders
whether the note is based on Lloyd
Georges speech Of May 81 which
was interpreted as rejecting the
plan that England pay the United
| States and forgive her European
debtors.

1862 business failures in the

large number, but it should not
scare anybody. In 1915 there
were 20,593 failures. Nearly 2
million firms and individuals
were doing business in the United
States in 1921. Consequently.
there was about one failure out
OF every hundred firms. "A cy-
