we owe, represented for the most

you and and the hundred odd mil
lion other American citizens bought
during the war. Looking at the debt
OF France In this way, 10 Is almost
eight hundred times as great "a that
Of Germany, and the debt OF the Brit :

At the same time II Is said that

And Would Great Britain Crawl Too?
The suggestion that America
should cancel the debt OF Great Brit
ain, which is worth one hundred
cents on the dollar in return for
Great Britain cancellng such debts
as that OF Russia and Of several
small nations whose paper just now
has no value In the worlds markets,
seems ridiculous to the man on the
street. So also does Lord Balfour' $
statement last August that Ger
mauys debt to Great Britain Is be-
t.-e ~ or seven billion dollars.
The Morning Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Okla.) 1919-1927, 1922-12-24

We all know that almost two-thirds
OF that debt, say four billions or
more, is made up OF a charge by the
British for pensions and separation
allowances which so far, We have
no offer from the allies to give Uncle
Sam. Our pensions during this war
have already amounted to claims
numbering more than two hundred
thousand on which we paid last year
over O quarter OF n billion OF dol
lars. Would Great Britain reCog b
nize our right to the repayment Of
that out Of the money TO be got from
the Germans? This payment would
be on exactly the same basis as much
Of Germanys alleged debt to Great
Britain.
But we do not want any other ma
tlou TO pay for our pensions. We
did not go into the war to make
money. and when the war closed we
did not capitalize our support by
demanding great colonies in Africa,
oil fields in Asia, or the partition Of
the islands of the far east We do
not boast OF our war charities, all
though they aggregated over four
billion dollars. only a little lss than
all the British owe us We know
that the war cost US nearly twice

TAKE PART IN
genoa MEETINGS
American Government Be-
lieves Conference Politi-
cal Rather than Econom-
ic; Will Not Attend

Neutrality-suspicious. it believes
there has been an exclusion of ques-
tons which makes it not primarily
an economic conference but rather
"one Of political character in which
1t could not fully participate" the
American government has declined
the invitation to take part in the in
ternatonal economic and financial con-
ference to convene at Genoa next
month. The declination was conveyed
in a note yesterday from Secretary
Hughes to Ambassador Ricci of Italy,
who had presented the invitation eX-
tended by his government pursuant
TO the resolution adopted by the al
lied governments at the Cannes con
ference.
The note, made public last night
emphasized the desire of the Ameri'
can people suitably to assist in the
economic recovery Of Europe but
stated the United States government
could not be unmindful of their clear
conviction that they "should not
unnecessarily become involved in Eu'
ropean political questions" The note
added that questions appear to have
been excluded from consideration with
out the satisfactory determination OF
which the chief causes of economic
disturbance must continue to oper-
ate"
Without the establishment in Rus
sia of the essentials Of productivity,
the note states, "the United States
government believes all considerations
| Of economic revival TO be futile. The
! conviction was expressed that this
could not be secured until adequate
action is taken by those chiefly re
sponsible for Russia's present eco
nonlic disorder"
