HARDING BELIEVES
DEBT AGREEMENT
WILL Be REACHED D
Negotiations to Be Resumed
Through English and Amer
lean Ambassadors After
Bonar Law Acts
By Associated Press

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-President
Harding Is confident there wig be
an agreement with the British gov
eminent for the refunding of its
huge war debt to the United States,
it was stated today at the White
House. Should the settlement be de-
layed beyond the present session Of
Congress, which ends March 8, there
will, however, be no extra session
of the new Congress to consider the
matter.
The President and the American
debt commissioners were declared to
believe that the counter proposition
presented by the Americans. after. the
British mission had outlined its
terms was sound an done that might
have been acceptable to Congress.
The firmness of the Americans in
supporting their counter proposition
was a contributing reason, 1t was
believed, for the decision of the
British to have cabinet consideration
of tho whole question before pro-
ceeding further with the negotia-
lions.
Baldwin Arrives Today.
Stanley Baldwin, British chancel-
lor of the exchequer and head of the
British mission to this country. is
due to arrive in London tomorrow.
Dispatches today said he was ex-
pected to report Immediately to Pre-
mier Bonar Law, but the cabinet
probably would not take up the ques-
ton before next week.
The expectation is that after the
cabinet has acted the negotiations
with the American commission will
he resumed. through Sir Auckland
Geddes. British ambassador in Wash
ington. The American commission
ers hope for an early settlement but
soNe of them are rather doubtful
that an agreement can be put into
shape for presentation TO this Con-
gress in time for final action by the
two Houses before adjournment.
Ambassador Harvey, who Is re-
turning to his post, should reach
London early next week. He was
here during the negotiations be-
tween the British and American com
missioners and it was expected that
American government officials be-
lieved it might prove desirable for
him to be in London while the Brit
ish cabinet is considering the report
which the British mission will sub
nit to it.
