The Debtors Essufa the Show

WALTER SPAHR, New York
w University economist and secre
tary of the Economists National
Committee, has admonished that the
Breton Woods agreements have the
disadvantage of giving the United
States, as the worlds number one
lender, only minority voice in the
management of the proposed new
international institutions.
DR., Spahr's warning IS not only
accurate, but it calls attention to the
fact that the understandings, which
will be presented to Congress for
ratification, CONSTITUTE A RE
VERSAL OF THE ORIGINAL
POSITION OF THE U. S. TREAS
URY GROUP.
When the project was first an
, 1lounced by the treasury IN tentative
form on April 6, l943, administration
Spokesman made much the fact
that the treasury plan, prepared by
DR.. Harry D. White, gave the United
States an effective veto on most i'm
portant matters of policy relating to
the operation of the contemplated in
ternational monetary fund
But in various subsequent con
ferences behind closed doors, THE
VETO RIGHTS OF THE UNITED
STATES WERE GRADUALLY
WHITFIELD DOWN without any
publicity calling attention to the
fact.
A COMPARISON of the original
"A White draft with the final blue
print for the fund, drawn up at Bret
CON Woods, discloses that the area in
which the United States would have
a veto right has been significantly
narrowed.
This is true in four important
particulars.
First, the veto, contemplated in
the original version, has been elimi
mated in connection with the acquisi-
ton Of foreign exchange by a mem
Der for making capital transfers.
Secondly, the veto OF the United
States over the right of the fund to
borrow the currency Of any member
country has beer eliminated from the
final draft.

Thirdly, the veto of the United
States over the right of the fund to
invest any of its holdings in govern
ment ecurities and commercial
paper has been taken out of the final
draft.
Fourthly, The veto of the United
States over the right of any member
country to change the par value of
its currency has been eliminated
from the final draft.
In the original blueprints as
drawn up by the U. S. treasury, the
United States was assured an effec-
tive veto by the provision that action
on these matters required an aftirma-
tive four fifths vote.
Since the vote of the United
States, both in the fund and in the
proposed bank, will reflect its rela-
tive capital contribution and will
greatly exceed one fifth of the total,
this country would have had a veto
in the White plan on important sub
jects in which it will be powerless to
prevent action harmful to our ma
tional interests under the Breton
Woods agreements.
THESE technical arrangements are
l. Of the utmost Importance to the
American people in view of the
anomaly of letting both institutions
be governed and dominated by
debtor nations, instead of by the
creditors.
A member of the delegation to
Breton Woods from India, which
has become a creditor nation during
the war, remarked:
"NoWadays, the debtor DULLES the
creditor"
