WAR DEBT PROBLEM
ITALIAN SUGGESTION NO AMERICAN RESPONSE WASHINGTON, Oet. 25. State and Treasury officials to-day remained sileut regarding Signor Mussolini’s suggestion that the United States should cancel or reduce war debts. All indications are that they will not allow the issue to be injected into the political campaign. The administration’s attitude toward interest and instalments payment due on December 15 remains problematical, the Treasury Department merely reiterating that only three nations, Esthonia, Latvia and Poland have so far requested postponement. The general opinion is expressed that, inasmuch as European nations are awaiting the elections to press the issue, this Government must await their actions to formulate its policy.
