DEBTS TO AMERICA
A FURTHER ASSURANCE RUGBY, Friday. A statement issued by the Prime Minister denies the reports (which have been again published) that yesterday's Anglo-Freneh declaration of co-operation applies to the question of British debts to the United States. The statement says: — "The use in the declaration of the words 'European regime' expressly excludes from its purview questions affecting non-European countries on the whole question. "The Prime Minister explained the position authoritatively in his speech in the House of Commons on Tuesday evening, when he said: "In view of the grevious results likely to follow upon any representations made, either here or in America, that at Lausanne Europe combined to present something in the nature of an ultimatum to the United States, I want to make it absolutely clear that all the Lausanne Conference did was to straighten out internal difficulties in Europe, which, in all conscience were many and difficult, and agree to proposals which the nations there represented believe are both essential and possible."
