SAYS MORGANS PAID
Adds That Hiring of
Bankers by Europe
Deluded Us.
BY United Press Leased Wire

WASHINGTON, March 30.-The
eleven war debts Of European ma
tions, refunded by the American
debt funding commission. will cost
the taxpayers of the United States
$l05. 1,000, Senator Howell, Re-
publican, Nebraska, told the senate
today in assailing particularly the
Italian debt settlement.
Howell contended that the agree
mentS made by the American com
mission amount to cancellation of
the loans made by this country from
receipts of liberty bonds during the
World war.
Based upon the rule or partia.
payments understood by every
schoolboy, the total payments in
every ease are not sufficient to pay
interest at the rate specified by
congress, = IIowwell said.
It must be clearly evident that.
no principal is ever to be paid AMI
that every debt agreement thus far
made and recommended by the debt
commission provides for caneella
tion.
Howell contended that the agree
ments are results of cancellation
propaganda started by European
countries shortly after the war and
submitted to the senate, statements
from prominent European statesmen
pleading for cancellation.
Says Facts Concealed
L., l., hnl Il
scarcely died away, he sai,f,
when a project was initiated IN
Europe for cancellation of every one
Of our war debts.
81 protest against concealment
of the facts from the people of the
United States involved in the per-
sistcnt statement that the principle
of these debts is to be paid. =
Howell charged that j. p. Nor
gan and company were employed ~
agents of the British treasury in
1919 to aid cancellation. The re-
suit was triumph for European
diplomacy, he contendcd.
In negotiating g. year loans the
rI inciplc is II minor matter and the
principal is the all important factor
he contcndcd.
Maintaining that the American
people must pay the deficit result
irg. Howell concluded that the debts
OF II nations would cost American
taxpayers:
Great Britain, S25.757,00O; F,s-
thonia $1,000; Finland $4,000;
Hungary $l1 900; Latvia S3l l,00J;
Lithuania $4,000; Poland $994.00o;
Romania $4,000; Czecho Sloval;ia
