DECRIED BY BORAH
Congress Has No Right to
Put Europe’s Burden on Peo
ple of U. S., He Says.
Congress has no right to unload the
war debts of Furopean nations on the
American taxpayers without specific
authorization of the people. Senator
Borah of Idaho, chairman of the Sen
ate foreign relations committee, de
clared in a letter to Charles i'iez. presi
dent of the Illinois Manufacturers’ As
s'ociation. Senator Borah's letter was
sent in reply to a communication from
-Mr. I’iez suggesting that the Ameri
can Debt Commission should have ac
cepted tin- recent French offer of a
settlement. Senator Borah said the
money loaned to France was obtained
front the American people under a
very specific pledge that the loans
would be “repaid with reasonable in
terest."
Pointing out that since the war
France has maintained an army of j
from seven hundred thousand to a i
million men; that she now has 200,000 !
soldiers fighting the Riffs and that i
she has 1-sined large sums fi> other*
countries to maintain military estab- !
ltshments. Senator Borah declared he !
•lid not fee! if was any part of his ;
duty to put tin load of the present
"imperialist je war and France's mill j
tar.' establishment upon the taxpayers !
of the I'nited States.'
-The Idaho Senator contended that !
the French as a people arc more pros-
Porous than any other people in lOu- |
rope, and that if the government would ;
establish a sound 11 seal policy the peo- i
Pie of France would be abie to pay *
the debt.
In this connection lie said Ameri j
can hankers had loaned to France and
other debtor nations millions of dol
lars at higher rates of interest than
those charged by the American Gov
eminent, but that he had seen no sug
gestion that the hankers should can
cel any part of the principal or in
terest on these loans because they and
their clients would he benefitted by
auch action.
