PARLEY (Continued from Pace 1) The War Dalila War debts were temporarily set. tied by the United States’ accept- ance of a payment of 810,000,000 made by the United Kingdomin silver, and the atmosphere was lightened by President Roosevelt's invitation to Britain to send repre- sentatives for a conference on the debts, although the President made it plain only Congress has power to make any revision. - _ War debts are barred from the agenda of the World Conference, but following emphatic declarations by Britain, Italy, Germany, Poland, South Africa and, other nations that final settlement of war debts is essential to world-wide recovery, the conference could not fail to have been affected by the pre-debt payment uncertainty. The tatements of policy given ‘ the conference by Neville Chamber- lain, Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Secretary l-iull were in accord on a wide range of points, notably in an urgent demand for reduction of the excess e tariff barriers blocking world trade, and the United States delegation particu- larly welcomed the British pro- gramme as brightening the pros- pects of the conference's success. Improved Prospects Furthermore it was authoritat- ivifly learned that the conference of British, United States and French treasury and central bank experts which has been at grips with the troubled question of cur- rency stabilization saw much im- proved prospects of reaching an agreement on de facto stabilization. Three figures dominated the conference scene today as the m. tlons, bis and little, submitted plans, proposals and suggestions in the plenary session. They were Neville Chamberlain, in precise phrase advancing the British plan; Cordell Bull, in more general terms pleading earnestly for internation- al cooperation and stocky Maxim Lltvlnoif, careless oi the fate of capitalistic nations,» yet offering a billion dollars’ worth of orders-al- ways conditional qn the provision of satisfactory credits. The British spokesman was em- phatic that action must be taken simultaneously in the financial, monetary and economic spheres alike. The United Kingdom "will spare neither goodwill nor deter- mination in our efforts to secure success," he promised. Mr. Cham- berlain saw three great pathways to a solution: ' (1) Final settlement cf repara- tions and war debts. (2) Abrogatlon of controls of ex- change movements, and resumption of international trading. (3) Coordination of production and marketing; removal of prohibi- tions and similar trade barriers and reduction of excessive tariffs in or- der to promote a normal flow of international trade. In the monetary sphere credit should be made availableby a pol- icy of cheap money. Stability be- tween currencies should be at- tempted immediately. And the chief aim should be restoration of a sat- isfactory monetary standard. Gold. the Chancellor said, seemed to be most generally acceptable but Brit- ain would not feel justified in re- turning to gold until equilibrium had been restored between costs and prices; until the disturbances due to war debts and reparations had been removed, and artificial barriers on trade had been wiped away. Tariffs should be no higher than necessary to enable the do- mestic producer to meet fair com- petition from abroad. Trade Agreements So far as trade agreements were concerned, the Chancellor pointed to the conditions demanded in mul- ti-lateral treaties, such as avoiding injury to low-tariff countries, and the difficulties encountered by tho large number of special considera- tions affecting different countries. The United Kingdom believed re- duction of tariffs could Best be ef- fected by a series cf bllaterial ne- gotlatlons which take into account the particular trade relations of the negotiating countries. Secretary Hull, who echoed Pres- ldent Roosevelt's policy and the announced policy of the conference in ignoring the debts question, stressed tariff reduction. No Eng- lish free-trader was ever more crit- ical of economic nationalism than was I-iull. The nations, he said, had foolishly and irultlessly triad to iivo s. hermlts life. International cooperation today was a fundamental necessity. The conference should proclaim that economic nationalism as imposed on the various nations was a dis- credited policy and should turn saidc from the nations that con- I THE CHARLOTTETOWN GUARDIAN __— u PAGE ‘THREE Notes Absence Of Depression In P. E. Island If there is a section of Canada which has suffered less from the general depression than Prince Ed- ward Island, Mr. William J. Ban- lhfln. of Napinka, Manitoba, would like to see it. The striking contrast between the favorable conditions in this Province and those prevailing elsewhere is " a cause both of surprise and satis- faction to Mr. Bananas who, after anabsence from the Island of twenty-eight years, is now visit- ing his father, M.r. John Ranahan, his uncle, Mr. Thomas Ranahan. ex-chlef of the Fire Department, and other relatives in Charlotte- town. Mr. Ranahan is a representative of the North American Life 'In- surance Company at Nspmgu, and ls an associate of Mr. J. E. Mat- thews, a staunch Prince Edward Islander who has charge of the Brandon branch. Napinka is in the southwestern part of Manitoba. Adverse crop conditions in that section of the Wllntfy have been felt very severe- ly, but the farn-iezshave shown a mflgnlficent spirit, have refused to acknowledge defeat and aye new greatly encouraged by this year's mp Prfsllects, which are the most promising for the past ten years. Throughout the west gener- 1111? there is a revival of confidence that the turning point has been reached and that better times are ahead. Coupled with this sentiment i8 i116 realization that progress [Q1- many months will be up-hlll and that hard work and sound measur- es of economy arc necessary. The spirit which has carried the Wcst- . em Canadian farmer through three years of unprecedented difficulties will, Mr. R/anahan believes, be able to cope with the problems which must now be dealt with. Though the farmers of Prince Edward Island have suffered as a result of prevailing low prices for agricultural products, they have really no conception af what the western farmer has gzne through in the last three years, Mr. Ren- ahan declared. He instanced the business situation in Charlotte- town, the comparatively few un- employed, the general air of pros- perity and well-being throughout city and country, as evidence of the Provinces good fortune, com- pared with other parts. Naturally, Mr. Ranahan is keen- ly interested in renewing old ae- qualntances here and is greatly enjoying his visit to his native city. At Borden last week on cross- ing over to the Island, he met his two sisters for the first time, Miss- es Eva and Gladys, who were born after he had left for the West. Mr. Ranahan has been Mayor d.‘ Napinka during several terms and has a. fund of first hand know- ledge of conditions in his municip- ality and province. He has also n. wide acquaintance with other Prince Edward Islanders in the West, with whom he comes fre- quently in contact. He is planning to return on Friday, after a well-spent holiday. “Generous" Sarah and her little brother Benny wlstfully eyed two cakes on the kitchen table.

(Continued from Page l) TEXT OF NOTES WASHINGTON, June 14-Sir Ronald Lindsay's note to the Unit- ed States State Department saying that Great Britain will pay $10,- 000,000 June 15 on the $75,950,000 due the United States on war debts that day follows: "In reply to the note handed to my by the State Department on June 9 I am directed by my Gov- ernment to make the following communication to you: I I "It will be recalled that the gen- eral vlews of His Majesty's Gov- ernment ln the United Kingdom on war debts and on their relation to present world difficulties were explained in notes exchanged in November and December last. "His Majesty's Government at that time decided to make pay- ment of the amount due on Decem- ber 15th but they indicated clear- ly that this payment ‘was not to be regarded as a resumption of an- nual payments contemplated by the existing agreement’ and they an- nounced their intention of treating this payment ‘as a capital payment of which account should be taken in any final settlement.’ “Finally they pointed out that the procedure adopted ‘must obviously‘ be exceptional and abnormal’ and they urged upon the United States Government ‘the importance of an early exchange of views with the object of concluding the proposed discussions before June 15 llext 1n order to obviate a general break- down of existing inter-government- al agreements.‘ “l-iis Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom adopted this procedure because they recognized the peculiar position in which the then United States administration was placed, and the impossibility of their undertaking any effective discussl l of the problem at that time. Seek Final Settlement "His Majesty's Government act- ed, however, on the understanding that the discussion would take place without delay, upon the pro- visions of the existing agreement in all its aspects, so as to arrive at a comprehensive and final set- tlement and in the belief that pay- ment on December 15 would great- ly increase the prospect of a satis- factory approach t.o the whole, question. "Negotiations were accordingly started even before the new ad- ministration was inaugurated; and His Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom have been most anxious to pursue them as rapidly as possible. “On the occasion of the Prime Minister's visit to Washington the President and his advisers made preliminary explorations as to the basis of a clearer understanding of the situation. For reasons not with- in the control of either govern- ment, however, it has not yct been possible to arrive at a definite conclusion of these negotiations.- "A speedy conclusion is, however, urgently needed. '1ric treatment of inter - govemmenzni obligations must closely affect the solution of the problems wltn which the world conference has to deal, because they cannot be separated from in- fluences which have brought the world to its present plight.

Experience, therefore, ap- pears to show that the effect of these payments upon prices is very o direct. “In the opinion of His Majesty's Govemment it is essential for the success of the conference that the delegates should not be hampered possibility of a. satisfactory settle- ment of war debts. "Payment of a further instal- ment of the debt at this juncture would inevitably be judged to mean that no progress whatever had been made towards such a settlement and would, therefore, deal a dam- the wishes debt owed to tho Unit- ed States, nor is it within his pow- er as President to alter the sched- ule of debt payments contained in the existing settlement.

Since, however, this does not appear to have been found pos- sible, His Majesty's Government are obliged to decide upon their course of action. B. m st Look to Conference "Such a decislonimust in any case be of an extremely difficult character and in considering it His T’ Majesty's Government have felt their deep responsibility not only to their own people, but to the whole world which is awaiting the delib- '1 erations and recommendations of the conference with the utmost ‘anxiety. “The conclusion at which His Majesty's Government have arrived is that payment of the June instal- '1 ment could not be made at this juncture without gravely imperil- ling the success of the Conference and involving widespread political consequences of c. most serious character. . "In their view the instalment should be considered and discussed as part of the general subject of war debts upon which they are anxious to resume conversations as "In the meantime, in order to make it perfectly clear that they do not regard the suspension of the June payment as in any ivay pre- judlclng an ultimate settlement, His Majesty's Government propose to make an immediate payment of $10,000,000 as an acknowledgement of the debt pending a filial settle- ment. “If, as they trust, the Govern- ment of the United States is there- after prepared to enter upon form- al negotiations for an ultimate settlement of the whole war debt question, His Majesty's Govermncnt would gladly be informed of the time and place at which thc United states Government would desire such negotiations to be begun." U. S. REPLY TO NOTE The United states reply to Great Britain, signed by acting Secretary Phillips and addressed to Sir Ron- aid Lindsay, follows in full: "In reply to the note handed to me by Your Excellency on the 13th instant, I am directed by the Pres- ident to make the following reply: “The President understands that His Majesty's Government have concluded that payment of the June 15 installment ‘could not be made at this juncture without gravely lmperilling the success of the Conference and involving wide- spread political consequences of a most serious character.‘ “He notes olso that accom- panying this communication is a. payment of $10,000,000 ‘as an ac’- ssuuwleliflfliltllt of the debt pcndihfl a final settlement.‘ and notes the characterization of the circumstan- ces with which the British Govern- ment accompanies this payment, al- though he, by no means, concedes some of the statements concerning the world wide economic cause and effect contained in his Ndijestys Government's communication, es- pecially in 'so far as they affect the Economic Conference.

W 159°7- "Meanwhile the World Economic Conference is beginning under fav- orable auspices and it is vitally necessary that during theopening days of the Conference difficult and possibly protracted discussion‘ of the debts be avoided. “In a spirit of co-cperatlon I have as executive noted the re- presentations of the British Gov- ernment with respect to the pay- ment of the June 15 instalment in-_ asmuch as the payment made is accompanied by a clear acknow- ledgement of the debt itself. NOT A DEFAULT ‘fin view of those representations and of the payment I have no per- sonal hesitation ln saying that I do not characterize the resultant situation as a default. “Beyond this the law and the constitution do not permit me to go.
