MELLON EXPLAINS WAR
DEBTS Of THE ALLIES
Says England Did Not Guaran-
tee Obligation Of Other
Countries to u. S.
BY Associated Press to Every Evening

Washington, Aug. 2f.--Funding OF
the s4135. 100000 war debt owed by
Gceat Britain to the United States
was declared today by Secretary Mel
lon to have no relation to the war
loans made by the United States and
Great Britain to other governments.
or to questions as to reparation pay
ments Of the former central powers.
The treasury secretary made his
declaration with respect to the British
debt In a formal statement issued, he
said. on account of numerous inquiries
reaching the treasury as TO the ex-
act status Of the obligations OF the
various European governments held
by the United States with respect 10
the British debt.
Reports have been published and
statements made in some quarters.
Mr.. Mellon said. that the British liabil-
ity was not incurred for the British
government, but for the other allies
and that the United States. in making
the original arrangements. had insist
ed in substance that though the other
allies were TO use the money borrow
ed. It was only on British security that
the United States was prepared 70 lend
Il.
The statement that the United
States government virtually insisted
upon guarantee by the British gov
ernment OF amounts advanced to the
| other allies is, evidently based upon a.
misrepresentation" said Mr.. Mellon.
Instead OF insisting upon a guaran-
tee, or any transaction OF that nature.
the United States government took
the position that II would make ad-
Vances TO each government to cover
the purchases made by that govern
ment, and would not require any gov
ernment to give obligations for ad-
Vances made 10 cover the purchases
of any other government. Thus. the
advances to the British government
eVioenced by it's obligations. were
made 70 cover its own purchases
Mr.. Mellon quoted from a memo.

"a cardinal principle" that each al.
led government should give its owr
ooIIgations for commodities purchased

ed the British ambassador in June
