Refuses To Believe Ills Debt Views Reflect Those of French People

Re1lect InOSc or trencn fcOple
 Washington, July 27 - Senator Shoot. chairman of the finance committee, and member of the American foreign debt commission, criticised yesterday Andre Tardieu's statement in the Nations Business that no French government would ever ratify the proposed Mellon-Ber- enger agreepen to settle the debt of France to this country.
 That may be the attitude of Tar dieu but I cannot believe it repre- sents the attitude of the French nation" Senator Shoot commented.
 Some Frenchmen, for political reasons. may declare themselves for repudiation. but I will not believe that the French people would ap- prove it.
 The attitude of M. Tardieu Is un- thinkable and certainly can be of no service whatever to France.
 There is no disposition here to change the present basis of the set tlement."
