for reconsideration of the settlement OF
the Allied war debts.
The list of endorsements, which rep

statement:
1--WE the undersigned, members of
the faculty OF Princeton University,
heartily endorse the desire, expressed
by the faculty of political science OF

President Hibben, commenting on
the endorsement said:
1.-THE signatures of the 116 members
of the Princeton faculty constitutes
one more indication that the enlighten-

revision of the debt settlement with
our former Allies.
However well intentioned may
have been the motives of our repre-
sentatives who approved the terms or
these settlements and however lenient
these terms may be represented to be,
there is a growing recogni,
ton that the settlements so far effected
do not meet the actual situation.

dous burdens of taxation for the next
two generations on friendly countries
which are struggling to regain their
strength when we are amaSSinS a ma
