Debt Commission
To Talk Over Money
Owed u. S. by France

Washington. Nov. 2S.--The French
debt to the United States will be
discussed by the American debt
commission at Il meeting here De-
ccmber !. Members of the commits
s!cn will be informed at that time
of results OF n series Of conferences
between Secretary Mellon and
Ambassador JusseIand looking to
POSSIBLE laSis for retunding the
French governments obligation,
which is the second largest amount
loaned by the United States to It's
associates during the World War.
Meetings between Mr.. Mellon and
the ambassador have been entirely
informal and their discussions are
understood TO have been directed to
n clariiication of the understanding
between the two governments With
respect TO the French fiscal position.
The discussions, however, are expect
ed to lead to tangible results. al
though the meeting of the commits
sion. which was called today by
Secretary Mellon, probably will do
more to clarity the situation as II
is now known by the treasury
head.
In some quarters. 1t was indicated
tonight. there is a belief that a pol
lev toward the French debt might
grow out of the meeting of the COM
mission and that definite statement
to that government OF what the
United States can and cannot do
might be Forthcoming. Official COM
ment was refused on these reports.
and DR.. Mellon withheld information
as to the business to be taken up at
the session except to say that the
commission will discuss the situation
as It now stands.

More Arrests Made

London, Nov. IS (By \. P.)-The
news from Egypt today was less re-
assuring than yesterday. but still.
in the opinion of the authorities. 1t
should not be considered alarming.
The precautionary process OF ar
resting nationalist leaders in Egypt.
whose possible activities are consid-
cred dangerous to the maintenance of
order. continued today when n large
number of deputies and other promi-
nent persons were placed under safe
keeping.
Those arrested appeared to he
mainly men connected with the orga-
nIZation of former Premier Zagloul
Pasha and II is reported that some OF
them were engaged in plots against
the lives of field marshal Niscount
Allenby, the high commissioner, and
others. It Is said the Egyptian gov
eminent itself now is responsible for
the business of informing persons OF
the DANGEROUS element. The student
activities. which appeared to have
ceased upon Zaglouls advice to re-
frain from agitation, have broken out
afresh and seem likely to form the
center for attracting nationailstic
efforts throughout the whole country
against the British government de-
nands upon Egypt.
il is said that the British authori-
ties now will leave measures for the
maintenance OF order the preventing
demonstrations to the Egyptian gov
eminent. and that they will not
themselves attempt to place on trial
any suspected PRISONS.
The most alarming news OF today
came from the Sudan. where there
was q mutiny among a small body of
Sudanese troops which resulted In
some loss of life. Details Of this
trouble are still rather obscure; but
It Is believed the disorder is not like
~ to spread. It is not clear that the
mutiny is directly related to the pres
ent Egyptian crisis or whether 1t is
Il recrudescence of the old trouble in
the Sudan.
