The first comment upon the Belgian
debt settlement is obviously that it
carries death blow TO most European
hopes. and specifically to those of
France and Italy. Belgium has re-
ceived special consideration, particu-
larly in the matter of the money bor
rowed from us during the war, but
the very grounds on which special
consideration is based close the door
to French and Italian hopes.
The main concession made. the
agreement TO forgive all interest on
the money borrowed during the war,
is explained by u quasi-commitment
made by the late President Wilson,
at Paris. whereby the United States,
like all the other Belgian creditors
and Belgium borrowed from France
and Britain as we'll as from the United
States-agreed to accept a percentage
of German reparations payments in
lieu of direct Belgian payments. Quite
properly, our debt commissioners have
recognized the moral obligation here
involved and we waive all interest
on this portion of the debt while in
S1sting that the principal be repaid
by Belgium direct. Thus our Govern
ment maintains its stand not to get
mixed up with reparations.
The second of the concessions is in

she pays something annually. but dur
ing the first 10 years these payments
are reduced in recognition of her
difficulties growing out Of the war
and the reconstruction period 1t is
only at the end of 10 years that the
regular payments begin in full swing,
and they then extend for 81 years.
the period of the British debt agree
'ment made by the present British
prime minister.
Latter Concession Open.
This latter concession is beyond
much doubt open to the French and
the Italians when they come 10 dis
cuss the debt. but the adjustment will
be regarded by them as drastic in the
extreme, for they have hoped for
much more considerable concessions
NJ. Mason at Williamstown spoke
of 10year moratorium, a subject
he discussed with me in Paris last
Spring. but beyond this he, like all
Frenchmen, has hoped for reductions
in the rate of interest.
In reality our commissioners, while
they have made certain concessions to
Belgium around the edges of the
Anglo-American debt settlement, have
in the main preserved the lines of the
Baldwin Mellon agreement under
which Britain is now paying us S162.-
100000 annually and will presently
pay s1S2 ,000, 900, the difference rep
resenting an increase from per cent
10 312 per cent In annual interest
charge. Since all loans were made
originally on Il per cent basis all
our debtors profit materially by the
lowering of the interest rate. On the
other, hand we are paying Az per
cent on our Liberties and the expecta-
ton of our Treasury is to refund them
at still lower rate as the occasion
arises. Thus, our financial experts
have estimated that at the 3ih per
cent rate we shall not only receive
enough to pay the interest on our own
loans, but that there will be an actual
excess In the later years adequate to
meet the difference between what we

company of notables enjoying Uncle
Sans hospitality at the Federal
prison here has reached such pro
portions with the growing enforce
ment of the prohibition law that they
now have to dine in three relays.
The hotel-which more than once
has found its way into the public
eye because of the generous hospi-
tality meted out to especially notable
guests-now has more than 5000
registrations.
The first group of guests begins
dinner at O'Clock and from then on
until we'll after the more fashionable
