AMERICAN VIEW
on the war debts
EASEMENT TO MEET EMERGENCY-
(United Press Association— By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.' *
NEW YORK, December 28.
The strongest article from an American source on the war debts appears in the “Saturday Evening Post” occupying nearly the whole editorial page. It urges that the debt should be scaled down to meet the emergency that is existing now, but that the debt be (enforced at the full rate when the nations recover.
The “Pest” agrees with the Hearst papers and with other press services that Britain alone among the debtors deserves consideration.
Th e article bitterly condemns the French default. It points out that ever since 1914 there has been a campaign in Europe directed against the United States in order to get them into the war, keep them >in fever heat during the war, and then dodge paying for the war.
The “Saturday Evening Post” add? that the Ottawa Conference was aimed at keeping America out of the British Empire’s markets.
