H o0 v e r Statement “Not At AH Unsat- isfactory” Is View In High Official Circles.

LONDON, Nov. 24-"N0t at all unsatisfactory," was the reaction in high ‘official circles tonight to "President Hoover's Washington statement on-war debts.

Immediate attention focussed on that part of the statement in which ‘the President declared "no facts have been presented by the debtor Governments" which would justify their request for postpone- ment of the payme ‘ due on Dc- cember l5. '

The British Government immed- iately began preparation of a new statement to the United States givlng concrete reasons why, in the British view, the December iii psy- ments should be suspended pending reconsideration of the entire ques- tlon.

IIIGHLI GIITS

Especial interest was attached to two highlights of the President's statement:

First, an intimation that other forms of tangible compensation than cosh might be of advantage to the United Btates( such as cz- pmsion of markets for the pro- ducts of United States agriculture and labor. in the President's words) and,

second, his intimation that debt- orsmightbeallowcd copay in their own currencies.

In official circles there wee a dlslnclinatlon to discuss the eug- gestion of how the debts might be met otherwise than in cash. until the actual proposals are received. Indeed, it was ctr-eased that the United States has u yet mode no reply to the United Kingdom and other allied powers who have requested extension of the more- torium. President Hoover's etete- ment merely summarised his con- clusions and ect forth the general picture following his conferences with political lenders.

Another point in the President's declaration, that reiterating the American policy of treating each debt ‘settlement separately. occa- sioned no surprise in Ilcndon. The United Kingdom has well realized this policy and has taken the ut-
