CA|LLAUX EXPECTS
GENEROUS TERMS
Reaches London by Plane for
Conference on Debt
to Britain.

oy the AeoDc18ISQ Ero98.
LONDON, July 1.-THE French
finance minister. Joseph Caiilaux, ar
rived by airplane from Paris early
this afternoon to confer with Winston
Churchill, chancellor Of the exchequer.
regarding funding OF the French war
debt to this country.
Questioned about the prospects for
an agreement, the French statesman
said: There Is always hope, and one
must always keep hopeful"
The British public expects some
sort Of surprise package from the con-
Terence, which opens in Downing
street this afternoon.
Judging from Paris reports. it
would seem that a complete agree
ment had been reached, with new and
important concessions to France,
leaving IL only necessary for M. Call
-laux to put his signature on the dot
ted line.
British treasury officials, however.
would not admit that this situation
existed. It was maintained that the
Franco-American debt funding agree
ment remained the basis Of today's
negotiations, with Downing street ad-
herring to its formula that none Of
Britain's war debtors shall pay more
proportionately' to the United States
than to this country.
1t was reported that NJ. Caillaux
planned to get around this by OBJ
tanning concessions here, and then us
ing them as means Of obtaining new
terms in Washington. Whether such
q solution would be forthcoming was
a subject Of much speculation in
financial circles.

ITALY HlNDERS
MISSIONARIES
Rumania Planning Like
Move, Baptist Worker
Says in Message

RICHMOND, Va, Feb. 27.-American
missionaries in Italy and Rumania are
threatened with serious obstacles under
new legislation proposed in the two
countries, Dr. ], T. Love, secretary Of
the Baptist foreign mission board de-
clared III statement issued here today.
Dr.. Love made public cablegram he
had received from executive headquar
tcrs Of the Baptist world alliance, Lon
don, which said:
"From reliable sources we are in
position to affirm that in one of the
next meetings Of the ministry the prob
lems Of various churches in Italy will
Be discussed and resolved The Roman
Catholic church according to the first
article Of the proposed constitution is
recognized officially ty the State. 1t
seems that hospitality will be granted
to those churches only which are reccg
n:zed by foreign nations as for exam
pie, the Anglican and Greek orthodox,
On the other hand, it is proposed to
limit the liberties of the Baptists, Wes-
levans and Methodists."
"A second cable from London" Or.
Love added, tells Of a proposal, which,
while recognizing the Greek orthodox
church as the state church Of Rumania,
discriminates seriously against other
sects which hold common faith with
large American bodies and in whom
these bodies are greatly interested. Al
ready Baptist preachers in Rumania
have been arrested, beaten and their
work otherwise interrupted
