Talk of Cancelling Loans to Allies a Diplomatic Move
In a wave of congressional and press chatter this week the debate over canceling Allied war debts dominates. The piece argues Britain’s Austen Chamberlain spoke to influence France and Italy, not the U.S., and that Britain’s gain from mutual cancellation would be limited. It notes France and Italy would benefit more, discusses Ribot’s bold 1919 French plan, and concludes U.S. public opinion likely rejects cancellation despite diplomatic maneuvering.
