Outspoken Statement.
Washington, Dec. 19. An outspoken statement in re- gard to the debt position was made by Mr. Charles E. Mitchell, Chair- man of the National City Bank of New York, to the Finance Com mittee of the Senate when that body was considering the Hoover War Debt Moratorium resolution.
Mr. Mitchell expressed the opinion that it would be a utracie if Europe could resume its debt payments at the end of the Morn torium, and suggested that it would be wise to make some further ex-| tension or adjustment.
He said that he could not con- ceive it possible for Germany to pay up her political debts because it would bring about a rebellion among the German youth against the payment.--Reuter's Americaa Service.
