HUDSON LOAN PLAN
London, To-day.
After the statement of the Prime Minister in the House of Commons yesterday on "Robert Hud- son's plan" for British credit to Germany, the London press this morning is divided as to whether or not the “incident” is to be consider- ed closed.
The "Daily Express" writes that it depended on Berlin whether anything would come from the initiative of the Director of the Department of Overseas Trade: The next steps must be tak- en by Germany.
The "Daily Mail" declares that
what might have led to a useful CORRESPONDENCE exchange of opinions had been dealt with so inaptly and indiscreetly
that it was now bound to fail.
The "Daily Telegraph," which at first attributed the greatest pos- sible significance to the credit plan, published only a very short commentary in which the initiative of Mr. Hudson is now described as of no concern.
LEFT WING IRONY With reference to the commen- taries, a Continental press paper declares that they constitute proof that the conversation between Herr Wohltat and Mr. Hudson was con- sidered in some quarters to be of much greater importance than seemed justified in view of the Prime Minister's statement in the
House of Commons.
The Left Wing press is rather ironical in its commentaries.
The Liberal "News Chronicle" speaks of the "absurdity" of the plan which was certain to be re- jected with contumely by Hitler. Unfortunately, the plan had not

"The British Government has recognized, at the same time, the neccessity of refraining from all actions which are detrimental to Japanese troops and likely to help the anti-Japanese Chinese."
Your Chinese readers, who must have been extremely offended by the words in italics, will be pleased to learn that this clause does not appear in either the official Britsh or Japanese version of the agree- ment.

question of whether Mr. Hudson 000 for construction of the new A supplementary vote for $120,- had spoken in his official capacity or in a private capacity had not yet been elucidated.
The paper emphatically expresses the opinion that the Director of thes Department of Overseas Trade could not possibly have made sug- gestions of such a character with out the Cabinet's knowledge..
It was certain last night, in con- sequence of the semi-official state- ment, that contrary to many rum- ours Mr. Hudson will not resign.- Trans-Ocean,...
