Italy Seeks Debt Funding
Formal Discussions With u. S.
Await Ricci's Return

WASHINGTON, July 31.-Notifca-
tion Of Italy's intention to begin nego-
tiations with this country for the fund
ing of the Italian war debt is expected
shortly, it was stated to-day at the
Treasury.
High officials expressed belief that
the question Of setting a date for dis
cussion between Italian representatives
and the American Debt Commission
probably would be taken upon the re-
turn of Ambassador Ricci to this corn-
try soon.
Belgium probably will be the second
foreign debtor nation to open fund
ing negotiations, officials declared. 1t
was believed Belgian representatives
would meet with the Debt Commission
about August II, although there were
no indications whether the discussion
already in progress with the French
would be completed by that time.

to propagandist work in America, COM
ing to this country surreptitiously in
1919 and maintaining Irish Repubi-
can" headquarters in this city, Of which,
he was the chief, under the title Of
envoy of the Irish Republic" In 1920
he made secret visit to Ireland, and
returned hither, successfully avoiding
apprehension by the British authori-
ties.
His most notable public appearance
in this city was at the Madison Square
| Garden meeting in January, 1921. when
he made an impassioned appeal to
the twenty million Irishmen in
America" to engage in the fight for
the Irish Republic. At that meeting
contributions and subscriptions were
Valera's campaign. SO bitter was his
incitations Of racial vendetta Of
1rishmen against Britons that the
Washington government is said to
have considered the expediency of his
deportation. When word came Of the
making of the Treaty of London for
the establishment Of the Irish Free
State, he expressed irreconcilable op-
position to it and secuted the idea that
1T would establish peace between the
two countries.
In December last, at the summons
of De Valera, he went back to Ireland
to work and vote against the ratifca-
tion Of the treaty. His departure from
New York was marked with public
demonstrations. The band Of the Street
Cleaning Department played Irish
music at the pier as he embarked upon
the steamer Panhandle State and the
police boat John F. Hylan served as an
escort of honor as far as Sandy Hook.
On reaching Ireland he spoke and
voted in the Dali Eireann against the
treaty, for doing which he was then
dismissed by the Free State govern
ment from his nominal office as "envoy
to America" Since then little has
been heard of him, save that ne was
loyalty standing by De Valera in his
resistance to the Free State. Early
this month he was reported with an
irregular force at Wicklow.

AS is known, conference 20 discuss

tions, long has been under consdera-
ton, but il has ben difficult to assemble
the powers. Lloyd George apparently
ment of the Italian Cabinet crisis to
bring the powers concerned together.
Lloyd George said that on the same
day the Greek government proposed
the occupation of Constantinople the
British government warned the Athens
government of the serious conse-
quences of such step.
In reply to this warning, he said, the
Greek Foreign Minister had given posi-
tive assurance that there was no cause
for alarm and that the Greek forces,
under no circumstances, would enter
the neutral zone without Allied con-
sent.
Lloyd George has invited Premier
Poincare to meet him in London Au-
gust co discuss the reparations ques-
ton, which has been rendered urgent
owing to the renewed slump in the
mark to just under 5000 to the pound
sterling. Should Poncare accept the
invitation it may be assumed that the
two Premiers will talk over the pos
sibility Of summonng, if not meet
ing of the Supreme Council, to which
Poincare is known to have objections,

One view of the situation taken in
political circles here is that the move
of Greece is bluff on the part of King
Constantine tc save his face in his own
country and induce the powers to
recognize him.
