Churchill Points to Need for
Cooperation of U. S.
and Britain.

In concerted action by the leaders
Of the Engiish-speaIing peoples lies
the best. and perhaps the only efhca-
cious. remedy for the worlds economic
misery. IN the opinion of Winston
Churchill.
These efforts. Britain's former chan
cellcr OF the eXChequer, told a large
gathering in Constitution Hall las
night. should be united toward settling
the so-called war debts problem and
toward ending what he termed the
artificial doflat!on Of commodity values
and the maldistribution of gold
These factors more than anything
else, the distinguished visit-r said. are
responsible for The World Economic
Crisis" the topic of Mr.. Churchills
lecture.
Speaks as Private Citizen.
Stressing the fact he was speaking
ONLY as q private citizen. the British
statesman said the closest of relations
between his country and the United
States never was more necessary than
at present. In this connection the
speaker did net hesitate to ado that he

as well as the need for an economic
cure.

British Empire is unshakable and is
equaled only by my confidence in the

Speaking whimsically Of the war
debts and rerarationS as ''astronomical"
figures. Mr. Churchill predicted the
creditor nations would have as muCn
difficulty collecting in the next 13 years
as they have in the period since 1919
unless they accept goods as payment
instead of gold or there is an un-
precedented rise in commodity values.
Scores French Policy.
The speaker assailed the oft-repeated
charge that Europe is being "bl2d white"
by the United States. At the same time.
however. he insisted there was no truth
in the assertion Germany has been
"bled white by the erstwhile allied
countries.
Mr.. Churchill was frankly critical of
frances action in amasSin9 huge gola
supply He pointed out both the United
States and Great Britain have curtailed
greatly Frances war obligations to
them. and blamed what he termed this
unnatural concentration of gold foT
stimulating artificially the value of thc

that gold is measure of value which
