FRANCE POSTPONES
DECISION ON DEBTS
DaIadier Awaits Attitude of
Roosevelt Before Acting
on Payment.
BY the Associated Press.

PARIS, March 23.-The decision of
Premier Daladier to await definite
knowledge of President Roosevelt's atti-
tude on war debts before acting on pay
ment was conveyed to the Socialist
group in the Chamber Of Deputies to-
day by Deputy Pierre Renaudel.
M. Renaudel said the premier had
told him that a number Of ministers
and many deputies had urged payment,
but that M. Daladier had been con-
vinced that nothing should be done
until American policy had been clearly
defined.
"a resolution calling for the payment
Of the defaulted interest Of $4,000, 900
on war debts owed to the United States
was introduced in the Chamber OF
Deputies last Saturday by Deputy Rene
Richard)
Georges Bonnet, the finance minister
denied that France and Great Britain
have formed a united front on the
American debt issue. The matter of
the debts, he said. was not discussed
while he was in London recently in con-
nection with the approaching World
Economic Conference.
Opposition to Plan Confirmed.
M. Renaudel, who had talked with
the Premier before the Socialist grour
met, confirmed M. Daladier's opposi-
tion to the four-power peace plan pro-
posed by Premier Mussolini.
The Premier considers, said M
Renaudel, that that plan would con-
front France with the two revisionist
powers-Germany and Italy-who seel
revision Of the postwar treaties, max.
ing the French opposition to revision
dependent upon British support.
M. Daladier his spokesman said

the League of Nations, where Francs
could muster other support.
The possibility that Premier Dala

MISSISSIPPI RISES
AS OHIO TIDE FALLS
Bottomands Abandone e d
Where Rivers Converge as
Rain Adds to Threat.
By the Associated Press.

LOUISVILLE. KY, March 23.-As
the Ohio Rivers crest surged inexorably
toward the Mississippi, presaging
foods in Western Kentucky, Illinois and
Missouri this week end, residents of
stricken communities turned anxious
eyes toward dripping skies today.
Showers descended on the already
-burdened watershed of the Ohio
Valley last night. The Weather Bureau
forecast more rains for today, but said
they probably would be so light as not
to cause serious increases in river
stages.
The Ohio began receding along the
$50 miles Of waterfront between Ash
land, KY, and Cincinnati after driving
thousands of families from their homes
in the lowlands Of West Virginia, Ohio
Kentucky and Indiana. At least II
deaths had been laid directly or in
directly to the flood.

Refugees hoped to reclaim their resi-
dences after a week or two, provided
no more heavy rains fall in the mean
time. The river was at stand at

stream from Cincinnati, after driving
almost 300 families to higher ground
here, but was still rising at Owensboro
where it was already five feet above
flood stage, and at Paducah, where II
had not yet reached flood levels.
With the Mississippi River already
swollen before the Ohio's flood water
swept into 1t, residents Of Western Ken
lucky, Illinois and Missouri bottomlands
began an exodus similar to that caused
by the up-river floods early in the week
The crest was expected at Paducah, on
the Ohio, Saturday, and at Hickman
KY, on the Mississippi, Monday.
j. L. Kendall, Government meteor
ologist here, said showers today would
not have much effect on the broad an6
muddy Ohio, probably adding only 9
few tenths Of a foot to its rBe. Ht
pointed out that present levels of tht
Ohio were six feet below those Of the
serious 1913 flood.
Relief Agencies Busy.
Sandbag barriers were thrown up ir
several cities, including Louisville
against the rampant stream, as disma
records Of inundated residential ant

BRITISH ALSO WANT VIEWS.
British Ambassador Instructed to OBJ
tain American Position on Debts,

LONDON, March % R.-Contradic-
tory press reports regarding President
RooSevelt'S war debt intentions have
been followed by instructions to the
British Ambassador in Washington to
ascertain exactly the American position
on the debts, it was stated In authori-
tative quarters today.
Meanwhile, 1t was understood the
question OF sending British debts COM
mission to Washington lies dormant.
Referring to his recent week end in
Rome, Prime Minister MacDonald said
It was found that Premier Mussolini's
mind had been running on an effective
plan Of collaboration between the four
Western powers to maintain peace In
the spirit of the Kellogg pact, and that
no force pact was contemplated by the
four-power conference.
He and Signor Mussolini, he said,
felt that article XIX of the League of
Nations covenant, regarding considera.
tlon OF treaties, was not meant to
become dormant, as the covenant con-
templated revision of treaties "when
conditions arose which might lead to
conflict Of nations"
Ten Years in First Period.
Mr.. Macdonald said that the plan
Tor proposed cooperation should be
carried out within the framework of
the league. Ten years was indicated
as the first period for the treaty
should its Arrangement be possible.
In his conversation with Singer Mus
solini, the prime minister said, there
never was any suggestion Of offering
Tanganyika to Germany.
Tanganyika, in East Central Africa.
was shared before the war by Germany,
Great Britain and Belgium After the
war the German portion became part
OF the British inundated territory of
Tanganyika and Belgium extended her
boundaries to include the Mountains of
Urund.
"The point about Tansanyika was
raised today in the questions here"
said Mr. Macdonald. II know the mem
berS OF the House were disturbed by
the statement that somehow or other we
had offered Tanganyika as some sort
Of sop to Chancellor Hitler. There
wasn't word Of truth In that state
ment."
Reassures Smaller States.
'There were some points which re-
Quired close examination and we
pointed out some matters Of essential
detail which had to be provided for.
For instance, how, the smaller States
could be consulted"
II see that some of the smaller States
are beginning to fear consequences. It
Is very natural on account Of what ap-
peared In the newspapers but can as

tions are concerned there is no founda-
