was expected to assume the finance
portfolio with the premiership.
The papers emphasized that
authorization of sale Of the residue
of the Morgan loan will provide
merely temporary relief. The sum
available is about $20,000,000 or
about S20,o00,000 francs. The
treasury contains about 100000, 900
francs. so that 970,0O0,OO0 francs
would be available Immediately for

At the end of this month the gov
eminent must pay 550.000,00O francs
in salaries to employesyand in other
similar charges and about 100000, 900
francs interest on the portion Of the
debt to the United States incurred
by French purchase of surplus War
supplies. r
Thus the immediate. commitments
of the treasury are greater than its
resources, although there remain
nine days befose payents are due.

new factor has emerged-that is
the genuine fright Of the Chamber

Whatever was his purpose, he sue

deputies from politics for the mo-

De Monzie had spoken Wednesday
that he had placed the resources of
the treasury far below their actual
ity. The minister tersely informed
the chamber that there was but
100000 francs remaining in the
treasury and he expected that sum
to be absorbed today.
When, in developing this state

LONDON, July 22.-There is
marked indifference today In the at
titude of Britishers and Frenchmen
toward Americans. @
Whereas Americans in France
have been subjected to insults and
attacks during the past few days,
there has not been a single instance
of this sort in Britain although the
British public apparently feels as
strongly as the French against the
war debt attitude of the American
government.
King George and Queen Mary this
afternoon were hosts at the largest
garden party in the history OF Buck
ingham Palace to which $4,000
guests were invited among whom
were several hundred American resi-
dents and visitors. King George,

guests. chatting and shaking hands
