ALLIES' WAR DEBTS.
HINT FROM UNITED STATES.
SETTLEMENT OVERDUE.
DIPLOMATIC PRESSURE.
By Telegraph— Association—Copyright A. and N.. WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. It is understood that when the Foreign Debt Commission meets next month, Senator Reed Smoot will propose that a diplomatic memoranda be sent-to debtor nations who have " not yet* arranged a settlement, urging the latter to negotiate funding arrangements. . A feeling exists . among various members of the commission that American leniency, which, it was hoped, would give an impetus to the economic rehabilitation of Europe, has had a contrary effect, and that the United States,- which at all times has insisted that debts must be ultimately paid, would probably do greater good by asking for a speedy understanding on a business basis.
