DEBT FARLEY ENDS;
COMMISSION WILL
RETURN To LONDON
Further Progress Said to Be
Impossible Until Confer
ence Is Held With London
Government

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-By the
Associated Press).-The British and
American debt commissions have
reached a point in their negotiations
where it virtually is agreed no
further progress can be made until
the British commissioners have re-
turned to London to confer with
their government.
The two commissions will hold an
other joint meeting tomorrow, but
it is expected to constitute only
leave-taking preparatory to the de-
parture of the British from Wash 4
ington. They will sail from New
York Saturday and any attempt to
establish even a tentative agree
ment as to terms of settlement of
the British war debts is expected to
be delayed for several weeks.
Despite the exchanges which have
taken place since the arrival of the
British group, it was indicated to-
dav in authoritative quarters that
no result had been produced Of
character positive enough to war
rant concrete recommendations to
congress for amendment of the fund
ing law.
British Proposals
The British are understood to
have suggested in a tentative way
that the terms of settlement be
based on a fixed minimum for an
nual payments, which would in
clude both interest and principal,
and which need not represent the
total Great Britain would pay in
any given year if she found it pos
sible to exceed the minimum figure.
Coupled with this was a sugges'
ton that the time limit and inter-
est rate fixed by the present law
be readjusted The American COM
mission is declared not to- have made
any definite agreement to : any OF
these proposals, however, but to
have presented views on the other
side of the question which Stanley
Baldwin, the British chancellor OF
the exchequer, who heads the Brit
ish group, regards as requiring
personal explanation by him to the
British cabinet. - ---'----~-
Among other things the British
officials and parliament are said
10 nd XXy10N
the Americans are reluctant to con-
sent to a low interest rate, in view
of the fact that the bank of Eng
land now is loaning money at home
at three per cent. 1t is expected that
Mr.. Baldwin will lay before his
government the facts as to the
difference in credit conditions in the
United States and Great Britain.
Saturday had been the date al
ready fixed by the British commits
sion for it's return to London, but
until today it had been hoped that
the period spent here might be suf-
ficient to put an agreement into at
least tentative form. 1t has been
suggested, however, that it may be
possible to so advance the discus
sions in cable exchanges that the
British embassy will be able to COM
plete any program eventually found
possible, making it unnecessary for
another commission to come to the
United States.
In. some quarters the prospective
departure of the British delegates
without a tentative agreement is
looked upon as precluding the pos
sibility of any amendment of the
pending law at this session of con-
gress, which has only about six

Peace Up to League.
by Associated Press,

= London. Sept. 1.-The near eastern
Crisis pivoted today upon Geneva,
where the council of the league of ma
tions had fortunately arranged a meet
ing before it was known 1t would be
faced by the strongest test of the
leagues vitality which has yet con-
fronted it. The council went only so
far as to adopt a resolution urging
moderation upon the Greek and Ital-
ian governments until the council
could examine the circumstances of
the case.
No belligerent events were reported
during the day from other reliable
sources. although a rumor was cur
rent that Italians had landed on the
island of Samos, but there has been
an active bombardment of diplomatic
statements and arguments from
pme and Athens.
The italian premier, Mussolini, tele-
5slaphed to all the powers and the
league of nations that the Italian
occupation of Corfu was a provisional
enc and the Italian minister in
Athens informed the Greek govern
faent that 1t should not be regarded
e a hostile act and advised that
Greece should refrain from belliger-
eaey. adding that the italian fleet
would leave when Italy's demands
had been complied with.
Affects Italy's Honor.
The Italian government asserts
strongly that the question is not one
for the league of nations, but con-
Germs only Italy and Greece and af-
fects Italy's honor. The Greek gov
ernment apparently adopts an atti-
tude of helplessness; it says 1t is in
the hands of the league of nations
and will do whatever the league de.
cides it should do.
The Greek government also says II
is prepared to accept in advance any
reparations demanded by the council
of ambassadors. Greece has protested
TO the powers against the lombard.

that Italians opened fire at in the
afternoon, whereas the second ulti-

Greece also makes the point that
Corfu was not fortified. The reports
of the casualties there vary from 10
killed or wounded to 10 killed.
The Italian navy proceeded with
the organization of Corfu in a bust
