Le Journal des Debergs forecasts the French proposals. It suggests à mora- torium for ten years, the payments to be spread over ninety years.
LOW INTEREST PROPOSED.
PARIS, January 4th. "The interest in the unofficial French proposals for the redemption of France's war debt to America is one half of one per cent per manuin."
INFORMAL CONSIDERATION.
WASHINGTON, January 1st.
The Cabinet informally considered in- timations which reached American of- ̈cials giving'an advance summary of the forthcoming French Note dealing with war debts.
The nature of the contents was not divulged. Ocial circles are unwilling to make any corament, but gratification is shown that the discussions have at last produced a proposal from Paris.
ATTITUDE OF BRITAIN.
WASHINGTON. January 2nd.
A high official of the State Department has been authorised to make a statement that no assurance has reached Washing, ton from London that Britain will not oppose a Franco-American debt settle- ment, as alleged in a report published ià $5,000,000
London, but the absence of any denial £2.594,160
