Debt Controversies May Reach a Crisis
 The Coming Winter
Congress Must Either Grant More Lenient Terms at Once, or Demand Pay or Default'' From Foreign Nations

is virtually impossible because of American economic policies. The United States has attempted at the same time to be q lender of money, a net exporter of goods and high tariff nation. This combination of functions is, over-any consider able time, an economic impossible ity. A nation cannot indefinitely collect loans from abroad, sell services and goods abroad and erect tariff walls to keep out foreign commodities, for, if 1t does, there is no way. of establishing 9 balance of international payments.
 Cancellation of the war debts would aid in re-estabiishing the balance of payments between America and Europe, now badly askew, would help American to receive returns on their $15.500,- 900, 900 foreign investment and would stimulate the foreign ma gket for American goods, in the long run, this would bring America more money than would collection of its war debts.
 Europe has made an honest ef- ferred $443,31O,743.87 on principal and $1,231,372,572.46 on interest to the U. $. treasury. Now 1t is unable to continue these payments. Hence they should be cancelled, or at least reduced, in the interest of general economic recovery.
 Whatever .he worth of the two opposing arguments. it is obvious to observers here that congress is against either cancellation or re- duction Of dehts Members of con- gress are convinced that they re- fleet the attitude of the average American.

BY JOSEPH H. BAIRD (Unitcf Press Stan Correspondent

 Washington. Nov 21-(U. P.)-- A bitter controversy which has ragged through the last decade over cancellation of Europe's war debt to the United Statessseems likely to reach 8 crisis this winter.
 Requests by Great Britain, France and Belgium for funda- mental debt revision makes it al- most inevitable that congress either shall grant more lenient terms on Edropc,s $11,000, 100000 obligation or else say: ''pay or r.default."
 When the issue reachest the floor of congress two opposing schools of thought in America--tlie cancella- tionists and anti-cancellationists -- are expected to open fire on. fellow senators and representatives. They have battled for a decade. Thou sands of words have been written and spoken by each side to support It's view. Briefly, their arguments can be summarized thus:
 Tho anti-cancellationists: Eu- rope's debts were legally contracted obligations. For every dollar ad- vanced, tho European, powers gave notes to the U. $. Treasury.
 Nothing in any of the congress sional acts authorizing foreign war loans nor in the diplomatic corre- spondence about them indicates that either tho borrowers or the lender regarded the money as a gift. Indeed, when congress in the early days of the war, discussed a gift to France, the French govern lnent notified the United States that the discussion was embarrassing and asked that it be stopped.
 Money advanced by the United States enabled the nearly y-bankrupt allies to carry on against Germany and probably saved them from de- feat.
 The U. s. treasury now owes American citizens more than $12,1 GOO. 900, 900 that ir borrowed from them to carry on the war. if Eu- rope does not pay it's $11, ,000,- 900 debt, the treasury must tax Americans to raise the money to meet It's own obligations, and thus the United States will pay not only for it's own part but for q large share of Europe.s part in the war.
 Hence, cancellation is unjust to the American taxpayer.
 The cancellationists: Americas g war loan to Europe represented this country's contribution to the battle against the central powers during the early war period when 1t could not send soldiers and sail- ors into action. Hence, Europe should not be asked to repay money that was a contribution to a common cause. "
 (This argument Is made by only a minor faction in the cancellation ist group. A much larger faction argue on economic grounds, as fol- lows):
