REPUDIATION TALK
TOO MUCH PUBLICITY
SIR GRANVILLE EYRIE'S
PROTEST
British Official Wireles3.
(Received 18th September, 11 a.m.)
RUGBY, 17th September.
Sir Granvillo Ryrie, High Commissioner for Australia in London, has written to the Press with reference to a suggestion to which publicity has been given that Australia might consider repudiating her war debt. General Ryrio says that Australia has never yet and never will fail to meet her obligations at due dates, and recalls the statement made by the Australian Prime Minister, Mr. Scnllin, in the House of Representatives:—"l regard the Australian debt as I would regard a personal debt. There will be no repudiation of our obligations by this Government."
Mr. Scullin has since declared that repudiation would not only be dishonest, but disastrous, and has described the suggestion as "utter nonsense."
