AMERICAN PRESS START CONTROVERSY.
(Reuter's American Service.)
NEW YORK, December 13. The newspapers lengthily com- ment editorially on the position regarding British and French debts to America.
The "World " defends the British attitude, claiming that the United States cannot afford to imperil world trade relations by insisting on being treated as a preferred creditor.
On the other hand, the "Evening | Post" - severely condemns the British attitude towards France and declares the debts owed to America are different from genuine Inter-Allied debts, and France is entitled to deal with America differently from the Allies."
The "Herald-Tribune" also contends that the Paris-Washing ton negotiations are no concern of Britain.

MERELY SOUNDINGS.
LONDON, December 14. Dealing with the French war debt, to-America, anent which Mr. Winston Churchill's recent declarations apparently, were received quite coolly by the French, the "Sunday Times" " Paris correspondent represents influential Frenchmen as consider- ing-that-there is a very vast distance between M. Jusserand's talks regarding the Washington conversations and'a definite settle- ment. They regard the conver sations as merely soundings to discover what is the fullest extent of American "generosity."
The correspondent thinks ap early refunding of the American debt unlikely in view of the situation in France.
