Lindsay Sends Details
AS soon as Sir Ronald Lindsay,
British ambassador to Washing
ton, had flashed a brief resume
of the American reply, its con-
tents were outlined by telephone
to the cabinet ministers.
They indicated that the diff

American agreement now had
been removed, and that the way
now was cleared for the formal
announcement to be made in the

that President Roosevelt has COM
missioned Prof. o. M. w. Sprague,
former advisor to the Bank OF
England. to manage the dollar in
London and make suitable recon-

Since Professor Sprague has

on the $1,500,000 payment due to-
morrow was taken to the State
Department today by Ferdinand

ter.
VeVerka also revealed that the
partial payment would be accom-
panied by a request by the debtor
nations for new discussion of
the entire debt situation designed
to bring about a final settlement
on a greatly reduced scale.
Finland, it was learned, will
meet its $148,592 interest pay

Certainty Stands
On Paris Default

PARIS, June IA GN.S0.
French default on the foreign
debt payment due to the United
States tomorrow was admitted to
be a certainty in official circles
today.
Although the Chamber OF
Deputies is in session, Premier
Daladier is not due back here
from London until late this
evening, excluding any posi-
bility Of a last-minute request to
Parliament to vote the necessary
funds.
Friends of the Premier declare
that in his political position he
could not afford to suffer a re-
buke from the Chamber on the
debts, especially when the world
is in such a fevered situation as
now.
France, however, according to
information obtained by Interna-
tional News Service, is expected
to adopt the British method and
make a partial payment" to the
United States soon. Daladier
favors the percentage payment
scheme fostered by Britain.
The Premier feels that he must
await a propitious moment be-
fore placing this project before
the Chamber. In the meantime,
France may forward a note to
Washington tomorrow, explain
ing that France does not refuse"
to pay but considers herself "un-
able to pay at this moment"

Roosevelt to "Receive"
Part Payments ON Debts

President Roosevelt today Will
announce that h. will receive
the partial payment offers OF
Great Britain and Italy and other
of the debtor nations which wish
to make such payment of $144,-
000, 900 due this Government to-
morrow.
By announcing that he will
receive" rather than accept the
partial payment, the President
believes he will avoid committing
the United States to any change
in it's debt policy.
Actual acceptance Of the partial
payment will be left up to Con-
gress, but the Administration
hopes the matter will not be
taken up in the legislative body
until the next session in January.
British Get Reply
The Presidents reply to the
British partial payment offer was
handed to an official of the
British Embassy at the State De-
partment early this morning.
The text of the reply as we'll
as the British offer will be made
public simultaneously here and
in London this afternoon.
At the same time the President
will make a statement on the debt
situation to coincide with the
statement to be made in the
House Of Commons by Neville
Chamberlain, British chancellor of
the exchequer.
Although the British offer is
reported to be in the neighbor-
hood of 10 per cent, the fact that
it will be received" rather than
accepted by this Government will,
in the belief of officials here,
avoid any recognition that a 10
per cent payment would pave the
way for a "dime-on-the-doIlar''
final settlement of Europe's debts
to the United States.
Italy Needs No Answer
A group of the debtor nations,
led by Great Britain, attempted
to induce the President to accept
a 10 per cent payment and credit
it to a final settlement, hoping
they would be able to declare
that such action was tacit recog-

Germans sit Silently
As DoIIfuSS Is Cheered

LONDON, June IA G.N.SD-A
crisis arising from Gerrnan-Aus-
trian antipathy was narrowly
averted in the World Economic
Conference today when Chancel-
lor Engelbert Dollfuss of Austria
received a tremendous ovation as
he arose to address the delegates.
So hearty was the applause &C
corded the diminutive chancellor,
whose government is waging a
battle against Hitlerism, that con-
ference officials feared the Ger
man delegates might take offense
and walk out on the parley.
Despite these fears, which were
particularly expressed by Prime
Minister Macdonald, chairman of
the conference, the Germans sat
stolidly in their seats, scarcely
seeming to hear or heed the storm
of appreciation for the Austrian
representative.
So pleased was DollfuSS with
his reception that he postponed
his departure for Vienna until
tomorrow. He had previously
planned to rush back by plane
Immediately upon completion Of
his speech to deal with the grave
political situation in his country.
DollfuSS declared each nation
must put its own house in order
before international stability is
possible. After suggesting the
conference create machinery for
bringing debtors and creditors to-
gether, thus aiding in solution Of
the international debt problem,
he closed with a plea for CO.
operation between Governments.

CONCRETENESS
SEEN LACKING
IN HULL TALK
Lofty Ideals Publicly Praised
But Private Opinions
Show Divergence

LONDON, June IA GNS).
Varied reaction among delegates
to the World Economic Confer
ence followed the speech delivered
to the parley by the American
Secretary of State. Cordell Hull,
setting forth American views and
aims on the issues involved.
There was a wide divergence
between the opinions expressed
privately and publicly.
Lofty Ideals Praised
While all delegates in public
praised the lofty ideals and senti-
ments voiced by the head of the
American delegation. privately ex-
pressed comments attacked lack
Of concreteneSS and an absence OF
specific propositions.
The French shrugged off the
speech with the declaration its
import was "all in the future"
The British noted particularly
that Hull proposed a gradual hori-
zontal lowering of the interna-
tional tariff walls, in contrast to
the bi-lateral agreements stressed
by Chancellor Of the Exchequer
Neville Chamberlain as the proper
method of tariff adjustment.
Britain has many Of these agree
mentS.
Disappointment Found
It was evident there was some
disappointment in the general
character of the speech.
British circles were inclined to
be casual regarding the speech.
Most officials admitted Hull had
covered the ground eXcellently,
but were in sympathy with the
remarks of one of them who said:
81 would swap my gold watch
to get a look at Hull'S speech
as it was originally planned.
(The speech originally was
scheduled for delivery yester-
day.
"TOday's statement was use
full and helpful as far as
speeches of that type can be,
but it hardly contains the seeds
for actual results"
The italian delegation, showing
extremely keen interest in Hull's
speech, appea somewhat
puzzled. Guido Jung. italian fl
nance minister and head of his
country's delegation to the con-
ference, told international News
Service:
"Hull gave "a most vivid pic
ture of the present state of the
worlds distress, streSsing the
necessity Of sterilization and
tariffs.
'Italy already has taken
stand against economic isola-
ton, but wants to know more
clearly what America means by
sterilization and what will the
question mean for countries
with stabilized currencies.
ITALY is DELIGHTED
eve are happy that the
United States is ready to fOrmu-
late complete plans on every
point. Great states such as the
United States should give the
example i'm facing problems
with concrete proposals, not
generalitieS."
Questioned as to what appre-
hension Italy has on the question
of stabilization, Jung replied:
"AS I personally favor the
gold standard rather than con-
trOlled currencieS, I naturally
am concerned with the effect
Of a spread in controlled cur
rencieS."

DEBT PLEA WINS
OVATION FOR
CHAMBERLAIN
British Chancellor Says World
Revival Hangs on Settle
ment; Hull Absent
GEOLOGICAL MUSEUM, LON

GEOLOGICAL MUSEUM, LON
DON, June IA Q.N.S0.-Prime
Minister j. Ramsay MacDonald's
demand for settlement of the debt
problem, which served to derail
the world economic conference
from its charted course on the
opening day, was re-echoed this
afternoon by Neville Chamber
lain, chancellor of the exchequer.
He told the delegates:
"FinaI settlement of repara-
tiOns and war debts is not
within the scope of this con-
ference, but their final settle
ment is necessary If there is to
be recovery elsewhere"
Chamberlain's speech was lis
tened to with keen interest, as he
has been delegated by his govern
ment to expound the latest Anglo
American debt settlement, be-
lieved to be on the Lausanne
"dime- -on-the- dollar" basis, before
the House of Commons tonight.
Hull Cox Absent
If he intended his speech for
the edification of American dele
gates, Chamberlain must have
been disappointed, as Secretary Of
State Cordell Hull and James M.
Cox retired from the conference
hall while the weary work of
translating a previous speech by
Chancellor Engelbert Dollfuss of
Austria was in progress.
They met for Is minutes with
Premier Edouard Daladier of
France in an anteroom. Daladier
expressed his regret over the
necessity of returning to Paris
before Hull has an opportunity
OF delivering his eagerly awaited
address.
Hull obligingly gave Daladier
an outline of his speech and said
he hoped the French premier
would be able to return soon and
bend his efforts toward speeding
up the conference. The Ameri-
can delegates returned to the
conference hall while Chamber
lain was well into his speech.
Ovation to Chamberlain
The chancellor received the big
gest ovation of the conference
when he took the rostrum to out
line Britain's hopes and policies.
He lengthily recited Britain's
financial history since the war
and told how London had en-
deavored to support European
currencies but failed because of
conditions in Central Europe.
Chamberlain admitted he took
a "too hopeful view Of things"
during the postwar era. He said
the real economic situation in
recent years has been disguised
by the flow of American capital
to Europe, which was not COM
pensated by the flow Of goods to
the United States.
This, he said, was a reversal
Of the old practise of permitting
a debtor to pay in goods.
Great Britain, the Chancellor de-
clared, made every effort to main
tain the gold standard, but said
that owing to conditions prevail
ing in 1881, I'VE were forced to
abandon ii"
The principal aim Of the con-
ference, he said, should be recov-
cry of world prices.

A "SimPIe" Problem
In Arithmetic

A doctor on inspecting a
lunatic asylum, asked two in
mates to tell him their age.
They did so, and then to test
their arithmetical powers. he
asked them to add the two
ages together. One gave the
answer as A, the other 1880.
The doctor Immediately saw
that the first had subtracted
one age from the other, while
the second person had mul-
tiplied them together. What
