Report From Washington.

Washington, May 15.-(AP)-The half of one per cent amortiZa- ton rate mentioned in Paris advices as a mark for adjusting the princi-
 pal of the French debt is the amor
 tization rate granted the British government.
 At the treasury today it was avowed that certainly the American
 government would ask no higher
 rate of annual payment on the prin-
 cipal from France and it was calcu-
 lated that should France arrange
 such a basis she would be committed to payment of about s22,000,000 as
 an annual installment on the total debt, in addition to interest. ] The debt commission previously has made known that it recognizes
 no distinction between the loans to ! France for prosecution of the war
 and the $40O.0000O0 owed to the i United States for supplies purchased
 after the war.
 Most officials here are inclined to
 view the question of interest as gov
 erncd largely by Frances ability to
 pay. It is 10 be assumed, officials
 said, that France would arrange a l funding settlement with Britain CO., incidentally with an agreement with ! the United States, in which event j the annual amount 10 be set aside i by France as a maximum for debt paying purposes would necessarily i have to be split between the two na- tions.
 l Should terms similar to those ac-
 corled the British be acceptable 10 1 France, the total annual payments l ny Franco 10 the Tinted States, in l interest and amortization would az ereEatc about s15o.o0o,000, experts calculated.
 A like agreement with Great Brit ain would mean, it was added, that
 the French would commit them selves to pay almost $%0O.0O0,00 a i year to the two nations and in some
 quarters there was feeling that i France would he unable to accom- plsh that much.

 Mass of Material
 The documents on the subject which will be supplied to NJ. Briand by the ministry of finance comprise an enormous mass of material, which however. has been analysed and reduced to an understandable form for the convenience of the new finance minister and his colleagues
 Washington Headquarters
 The American government has made 1t so clear that tho prospective negotiations will be in the hands Of its debt funding commission, that it is felt the diplomatic exchanges must he made in Washington rather than in Paris.
 NJ. Cailaux has not said exactly what proportion of the receipts un- der the Dawes plan France is will ing to devote 10 the payment of her debts. but 1t has been suggested that half might be available,
 The Dawes Plan.
 The Dawes plan for the coming fiscal year calls for the payments of 1.200.O00,000 marks, of which the French share is 52 per cent, or about s15S,600, 1000.
 As the French debt 10 Great Britain roughly equals the French debt 10 America, it would be pos- sible for France to devote half of this sl5S,6O0,000 plus about S20,0OO now paid for army stocks toward American debt payments-or a total of about $100.O0O,O00 annually.
 However, a large proportion of the Dawes payments Is certain to be in merchandise and it remains to be seen how much of these goods France can sell, and at what prices.
 4 Rough Estimate.
 The estimated sum of s100,O00,- 900, although insufficient to pay in- terest and amortization on the French debt at the rate Great Brit ain Is paying America on her debt, should be enough to make begin ming toward q settlement Of the debts question, it is believed here,
 Another point at issue is Francc's disposition to make her debt pay mcnts dependent upon her receipts from Germany.

WIDOWS PENSION
 DISCUSSED AT N. '.
Head Of Child Welfare Wants
 Home for Every Child

New York, May 15.-(AP)-A rational movement to promote widows pension legislation, so as to preserve as far as possible a home for every child, was advocated today by Sophie Irene Loeb, president Of the child welfare committee of America at the opening of a con- ference on child welfare. Repre- scn'ativcs from every part of the United States are in attendance. Miss Margaret Woodrow Wilson, daughter of the late president, was temporary chairman.
 In 42 states a widows pension law has been enacted. Miss Loeb said, thus preparing the machinery for a nationwide treatment of the prob lem, Eighteen states already have appointed commissions to codify eX- igting laws for the protection of children and to recommend new leg islatjon.
 Ut is easily understood how the further strengthening of the exist irg laws in every state can soon reach out to every poor and desti- tutc child and aid him in time to give him the chance he needs rather than make him a case for m insti- lu'ion, a criminal court or a prison" "
 The importance of a home life for the child is being moro and more realized. Miss Loeb said. Tn his evolution as citizen every sta tute that will be made in the pro- tcction of home in this connection will therefore be of vital importance not only to him but to the future of the country" she asserted.
