Three Republicans Borah LaFollette and Norris join a solid Democratic minority in opposing a bill that would create a five member commission headed by the Treasury Secretary to refund or adjust foreign debt payments with presidential approval. The bill limits maturity to June 15 1947 sets interest not below 4 1 4 percent and bars cross currency exchanges. The commission lasts three years with Senate confirmation and annual reports to Congress.
Senator Watson stated that only Cabinet and Congress members would be appointed to the debt commission, a plan he said reflected the President's intention though he was not authorized to announce it. An amendment by Senator Walsh was adopted requiring after refunding negotiations the commission to report results to the Senate and to provide pitiless publicity of its work.
