.lZ';t: that the observer
d the French government do-
‘mt discussion was at least 3
00d intent.
sci-and took up the question
to that body in moat contoromu
substantially the same view which
he expounded in a opoech recently.
The White House was nixed b! the
correspondent: for a comment on
that speech and it was pointed out
that there could be comment only
on what was'laid to the Funding
Commission after that organization
had taken up the matter in due
course.
The newspaper men drew the in-
ference that'a rebuke wu being
given the French ambassador tor
talking in public apeechos instead or
making an argument to the Funding
Commission. And when the press
reports gave the impre‘oaiou of a re-
buke the White 1:10qu disclaimod
such an intention. Indeed, it was
discovered that the French ambus-
ador had been saying the lame
things to the Funding Communion
but whether the report 0! his con-
vemtions had been made to the
President by last Tuesday when the
stories of o. reprimand were pub-
lished in not yet clear.
The point bowover is immaterial
because the President had no inten-
tion or course of issuing a rebuke to
any one and the French ambassador
is not being criticised hero for what
is known to be the policy or his
government.
The incident has simply accentu-
ated the tact that France wants a
moratorium and hopes later to
make even better terms ‘with the
United states than Great Britain
did. The American government is
embarrassed by "tho apparent un-
‘willingneoa of France to pay any-
thing right a y and also by the
knowledge‘ that it any terms are
erected to France. Great Britain
will promptly uk tor a revision 0:
the agreement one has with the
United States.
The contention is being repeatedly
made by France tbot owinz' to the
large sacrificed she made at biOod a:
well as treasure she should not be
expected to pay anything like the
terms America wants. Indeed. the
French have never counted the debt
to America as a. part or their bud-
get or expenses and have made no
provisions either for interest or
sinking tund. Thin he. not created
a. veery good impression in Contract.
Also the international banker-s who
are called upon to persuade the An:-
erican investor from time to true to
buy French government securities
are anxious to see the French placed
in the best light possible. The Fund-
ing Commission naturally expected
some concrete proposal: from
fiance but it ha.- bocomo apparom
that the French ambassador only
has the power to discuss and create
a favorable sentiment it possible
for a. moratorium or easier terms
than Great Britain «cured.
The French viewpoint is that Am-
erica was a belated participant in
the war and that none of the Allied
and minted, powers made the
sacrifice tint Franco did. hence the
United Stiles ahould make duo ai-
lowanceo. 1! America does. then
French would expect the British to
do likewise.
The French are uniting about

opa ai‘tcr Congress 3430“”! in

there is an objection to sending a.
