MORGAN s LOAN
To ITALY AID
ON DEBT
Negotiations Expected Now
When Rome StabiIizes
Nations Currency
BY H. X. REYNOLDS.

While disavowing that the Gov
ernment had anything to do with
the $5O,OOO,OOO credit granted q
consortium of Italian banks by j.
P. Morgan and Company of New
York, Administration officials to-
day expressed the opinion that the
use of this credit by italy for the
adjustment of her internal affairs
probably would hasten debt fund.-
ing negotiations with the United
States.
negotiations Are Begun.
Conversations on the $4,000, ,OOO.-
900 debt OF Italy have already been
inaugurated here between the
Italian ambassador and members, Of
the American Debt Commission,
but they have been marking time
for more than a week pending the
receipt of additional instructions
by the ambassador.
1t is now understood that the
completion Of the Morgan loan was
one of the things that Italy has
been waiting on and that the debt
conversations will be resumed here
as soon as the Rome government
has developed its plans for stabiliz.
ing lis currency.
Discussion Of the suggestion for
holding debt negotiations in Europe
instead of in the United States con-
tSnued here today; despite the ex-
PRESSED opposition CT Secretary of
State Kellogg and Secretary Of the
Treasury Mellon, and the official
White House statement that Presi-
dent Coolidge was wiling to leave
the question up to the Debt Com
mission.
COolidge's Mind Open.
In some quarters, the statement
of the White House spokesman
was interpreted as meaning that
the President had not turned his
back on the suggestion entirely, but
was willing to have the question
remain open until the desires of
France and other large debtors had
been definitely made known.
The position OF the President was
said to be that he did not want
to place any obstacles In the
path Of debt negotiations, while
believing that negotiations held in
Washington might turn out more
than those held abroad.
Secretary Mellon, however, as
Chairman Of the American Debt
Commission, is firmly opposed to
going abroad for debt adjustments
and 1t is the general opinion that
his view will prevail unless 1t be-
comes impossible to get foreign
debt representatives to come here.

President Gales Takes Ex-
ception to Statement of
Secretary of State. !

WASHINGTON. June 15.-Presi
dent Gales of Mexico, declared
that Secretary of State Kellogg's
statement last Friday. contained a
threat against Mexico's sovereign
ity, in the implication that Mexico
stood ION trial before the world"
in the guise of defendant, and
in essence could only mean an in.
suit"
President Gales added: Mexico
does not accord to any foreign
country the right to intervent in her
domestic troubles nor Is she dis
posed to subordinate her information
al relations to the exegencies of
another country. He has no right
to charge Mexico with failure to
protect foreign interests and atten-
tion should be called to the fact
that an Ambassador does not repre-.
sent any other foreigner but only
his own fellow citizens"
President Calles's statement, like
that of Secretary Kellogg, Is not an
exchange Between the two govern
ments but directed to the press.
Nevertheless, officials are astonish-
ed over Mexico's use of such words
as insult and threat on the sover-
eighty OF Mexico.
The press dispatch which brought
forth the statement from President
Gales, was given out last Friday
under a Washington date line as
follows:
After a conference with Ambas-
sador Sheffield, who Is home on
leave Of absence, Secretary of State
Kellogg stated the Administration
will support the government OF Mex
leo only so long as it protects
American lives and American rights,
and complies with its international
obligations.
Secretary OF State Kellogg de-
clared the relations now are friend
lily but nevertheless conditions are
not entirely satisfactory. We are
looking to the Mexican government
to rstore properties Illegally taken
and indemnity American citizens.
THE Secretary said he hoped very

true and added: The Government
