CLOSE
Government to Take Aggres-

ration Settlement
BY H. X. REYNOLDS,
International News Service.

A polite but aggressive debt
collecting campaign will be
launched by the United States as
soon as a reparations settlement
has been effected in Europe, it was
learned officially here today.
The object of the campaign will
be the collection or funding of the
$4,000, 100000 still outstanding as
a result of loans made by the
United States to its European al
lies during the war.
No Cancellations.
The Administration, officials de-
clared, will enter into no negotia-
tions with these debtor nations to
effect changes in the present status
Of their billions of Indebtedness, ex-
cept to establish basis for pay
ment with the British funding
agreement as a precedent.
Information has reached the State
and Treasury departments that
Prime Minister Macdonald, Of Great
Britain, planned to make repre-
sensations to the United States for
the cancellation of part Of the '$4,-
O00,000,000 French debt but it was
made plain by those concerned
with funding these debts that the
United States will demand payment
in full and will not even discuss the
possibility of remission or cancella-
ton.
There has been some talk in Eng
land of cancelling the French debt
to Great Britain but Macdonald
is said to feel that the United
States should join him in this can
collation., with a view to effecting
a general worldwide debt agree
ment to follow up the work of the
London reparations conference.
Farley to Aid.
The status of the debts of Ell.
ropean governments has not been
lost sight of by the United States
during the negotiations at london,
over the Dawes plan. One of the
reasons that President Coolidge and
Secretary Hughes have been so
anxious to see an agreement
reached is that the payment of
reparations by Germany will i'm
mediately open the way for the
payment Of the French and other
debts to the United States.
Once the reparations plan is on.
Grating and actual payments begin
to be made to France, the Ameri.
can Debt Funding Commission
under authority from Congress, will
issue formal invitations to France
and other debtor nations to send
fiscal representatives to Washing.
ton to arrange for liquidation of the
war debts.

PARIS. September II. - The $780,
o00. 900 credit extended by ]. p. Nor
gan & Co. to the Bank of France six
months ago has been renewed for six
months upon conditions similar to
the preceding credit.
The renewal came after negotia-

representing the American banking
firm, and Georges Robineau, gov
ernor Of the Bank of France. Ac-
cording to the bank. the renewal was
obtained simply as a precaution for
the future. as there is no need or in
tention to use the credit at present.
The credit was originally extended
to assist in the fight against the de-
probation of the franc.
The Bank of France today issued
the following statement:
"Messrs. J. p. Morgan & Co. have
decided, in their name and in the
name of the banks associated with
them, to maintain at the disposal Of
the Bank of France the credit of

used had been repaid intesrally by

BEHIND PEACE PLAN
Little Entente to Have AS

Aggressor Nations.
By the Associated Press.


GENEVA, September 1.-THE rep
resentatives Of the little entente have
been informed that Great Britain will
not only stand ready to extend eco
nomic penalties against any aggres-
sor states, but will also subscribe to
a general agreement to afford naval
assistance to maintain world peace,
1t was stated on good authority here
today.
This assurance has created a favor
able impression among the smaller
European states, and has strength
ened the idea already prevalent in
League of Nation quarters that Eng
land and France are closer than some
people think to a settlement of the
problem of security, which the French
insist must accompany any acceptance
of compulsory arbitration.
Slow About Com nmitmenfx.
A difficulty arises in working out
the formula for. apparently. Great
Britain will hesitate to commit her
self in advance to throwing the
weight of the British navy into any
conflict. contenting herself with the
blanket provisions outlined in Article
IS of the covenant of the league.
which Prime Minister Macdonald has
characterized as stronger than most
people imagine.
Help from the British army is now
excluded from the tentative plans be-
cause Paul Boncour of France real
ICES that it is neither possible nor
expedient to force any army con-
