America May Seek to Force France to Quit Policy
Washington reports that the United States may demand France pay its debt to the United States as a way to pressure Paris to abandon its submarine and air arms policy. Amendments to the foreign debt refunding bill would direct a demand for payment of interest and principal totaling about $2.0 to $3.0 billion. The move aims to signal that U S leaders no longer endorse France's stance and that France could defer payment only if the U S compels it. The issue feeds anti foreign entente sentiment and heightens opposition to any co ally pact while naval arms and Pacific treaty talks closely watch the reaction. Congressional debates set to resume January 3.
