The President, however, will make
no move until he has conferred with

He expects to cooperate fully

He is willing to subordinate him

move for nonpartisan action for the

Belgium Makes Appeal
BY JOSEPH HI. BAIRD
United Press Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-A third
appeal for relief from war debts
was added to that of Great Britain
and France today when Paul May,
Belgian ambassador, presented a
note from his government to Secre-
tary of State Stimson.
A payment of $2,125, 900 is due
Dec. Is from Belgium as interest on
its war debt. No principal payment
is due. The full Belgian war debt
is $4O0, 100000.
State department officials de-
clined for the moment to reveal
the text of the Belgian note.
Roosevelt Accepts Bid
President Elect Franklin D.
Roosevelt telegraphed Mr.. Hoover
he will be glad to talk over the debt
problem with him at the White
House. He indicated plainly, how
ever, that he did not propose to
assume responsibility in advance of
his accession to power On March
4. The conference probably will
be held early next week.
Mr.. Hoover, en- route from Cali
fornia, will return here Wednesday
to grapple in the dying days of his
administration with one of the
most formidable and dynamic prob
lens that has confronted him.
Appeals by Great Britain and
France for a complete revision of
war debts, and suspension of their

tons, raise a delicate problem. 1t
has two angleS-political and eco
nomic-and the two appear to con-
f1ict.
Attitude Is Expressed
Most congressional leader declare
America, facing a billion dollar
deficit in its budget, can not cancel
or even postpone payment of
Europe's' debts. Many of them COM
mitted themselves to this stand in
recent campaign appeals.
Chairman James w. Collier
(Dem., MiSs) of the house ways
and means committee, expressed
the attitude of many congressman.
If Europe can't pay, let her owe
us" he said. "I favor keeping the
obligation on our books. Some day
We may be able to get some of the
money anyway
Yet, in the minds of some govern
ment economists, there is doubt as
to the wisdom. even from a selfish
viewpoint, of forcing debtors to de-
fault If they can not pay.
May Change Minds
According to prevalent opinion in
administration circles, France can
transfer its payment of 1000, 900 in
gold to the United States without
difficulty. But Great Britain may
not be able to transfer its December
installment of SOS 100000.
Some officials feel that a default
might encourage non-payment by
national and private debtors
throughout the world, thus endan-
gering international credit every
where.
The negative attitude in congress.
it is believed here, might be in
tuenced by recommendations of the
Republican and Democratic leaders.
