Settlement of Belgian Debt
Shows Leniency on Part
of the United States.
By EDWARQ W. PICKARD
"PROVIDED congress is satisfied —
and there is no reason to believe
it will not be—the funding of Bel
gium's debt to the United States has
been arranged. The agreement was
signed by the members of the two com
missions last week at a dinner given
at the Belgian embassy by Ambassa
dor Baron de Cartier de Marchlenne.
It Is in accord with the advice given
by President Coolldge when Secretary
Melion and Senator Smoot conferred
with him, and the Brussels govern
ment authorized Its representatives to
accept It.
Belgium is highly pleased with the
arrangement, and should be. In the
first place, a distinction is made be
tween the obligations incurred during
the war and the sums borrowed after
the armistice for purposes of relief
work and reconstruction. The princi
pal is all to be paid in a period of 62
years, but on the war debt of $171,-
780,000 Belgium Is not required to pay
uny interest, either accrued or in the
future. The Interest rate on the post
war debt is to be 3% per cent after
the first ten years. During the first
decade arbitrary amounts have been
fixed on the interest payments, gradu
ated on an easy scale.
On the war debt account the first
payment of capital, which will be due
June 15, 1926, will be only $1,000,000,
Increasing gradually until it reaches
*2,990(000 in 199t£. the same amount to
be paid each succeeding year until
198 V. Then a final payment of $2,280,-
000 will be made.
For the first year on the post war
debt the principal and interest pay'
ment will be $2,840,000, Increasing
xomewhat each year to the eleventh
year, when It will be $9,772,000. The
annual payment each year thereafter
for fit years, or until 1087, will be ap
proximately this amount —a little un
der 10,000,000 a year.
The Belgian debt has hitherto been
regarded as totaling abdut $480,000,-
>oo, including accrued interest at a
rate of 4% per cent. The settlement,
however, fixes the actual amount at
$417,780,000. as of June 16,1925.
The American commission refused
to accept Belgium's claim that the war
debt should be shifted in any way to
Germany, but explained the easy
terms granted by saying that "while
no legal obligation rests upon the
United States in the matter, there does
continue a weighty moral obligation as
a result of assurances given which en
tirely differentiates this sum from all
other debts due the United States
from foreign countries." The allusion,
of course, is to President Wilson's as
surance that the German government
w*ald be substituted for Belgium as
the debtor Por the pre-armlstice debts.
CWtAKCE naturally was immensely
" interested In the Belgian debt set
i lenient ami regarded It as a happy
augury and as proof that America was
ready to make generous concessions In
the matter of the French obligations.
Finance Minister Calllaox, declaring:
"The future of European civilization
depends on an Immediate solution of
the war debts." announced that the
French mission headed by Senator
I'.erenger would come to Washington In
September and that he would follow
It and hoped a funding agreement
■night be reached early In October.
Meanwhile he went on Saturday to
London for another conference with
the English, expecting to bring about
* rapid agreement regarding France's
obligation* to Great Britain.
Italy, too, was cheered by the Bel
gian settlement, hoping for similar and
perhaps better terms when Ambassa
dor de Martlno returns to Washing
ton and the parleys are resumed. The
newspapers in Rome are presenting
figures to show that Italy Is receiving
*BO per capita on her reparation ac
count and the national wealth Is only
per capita, while Belgium ' re
calves from Germany $324 per capita
and the national wealth of Belgium Is
$1,377 per capita. The conclusion is
drawn that Italy should receive pro- f
portionately better terms.
PRESIDENT COOLIDGE spent near
ly a week at Plymouth, Vt„ visit
ing his father and enjoying the only
real rest he has had since his vaca
tion began. On Thursday he reluc
tantly started back to Swampscott by
motor, stopping overnight at North
ampton, Mass., with Mrs. Elmira Good
hue, mother of Mrs. Coolldge. Friday
afternoon the President received Sen
ator Edge of New Jersey and State
Senator Whitney, the Republican
gubernatorial nominee.
BESIDES the matter of the Belgian
debt agreement, the President had
one Important conference while at Ply
mouth.- It was about the proposed re
duction of federal taxes, and those
who talked It over with Mr. Coolldge
were Secretary Mellon, Senator Smoot,
chairman of the finance committee,
and Representative Tillson of Con
necticut, Republican floor leader of
the house. They assured him that be
fore payments for this year are due
on March 15 next, congress will have
made substantial reductions In fed
eral Income taxes. No definite figure
could be proposed yet, because the
treasury surplus and amount of the
government budget are yet unknown,
but the bMlef was expressed that a
cut of at least $300,000,000 could be
made.
Both Senator Smoot and Representa
tive Tillson favor cutting the maximum
surtax on Incomes of $12,000 and
more from 40 per cent to 20 per cent,
or to 15 per cent If conditions war
rant. They also favor making the
normal tax on Incomes of $4,000 or
less 1 per cent Instead of 2; 3 per
cent Instead of 4 for Incomes between
$4,000 and SB,OOO, and 5 Instead of 6
per cent on incomes over SB,OOO.
Mr. Mellon feels that the financial
condition of the government will per
mit of a reduction of the surtaxes to
25 per cent, and the cutting down of
the normal taxes proportionately, with
the lowest normal reduction from 2 to
1 per cent. He favors the federal gov
ernment abandoning the inheritance
taxes, but remarked that he could nojt
attempt to say how far the general
tax reduction program could go.

' " out of commission and unusually
■evere weather prevailing, the Mac-
Miilan expedition has abandoned for
this year any exploration oft the polar
sea by air. Instead the party will de

HUM. FIRE LOSS

STATE LEADS NATION IN ACTIVI-
TIES FOR FIRE PREVEN
TION.
Raleigh.
The annual fire loss in North Caro
lina is now running cl6se to $6,500,-
000, or approximately $2.45 per capita,
as against an annual loss In the United
States of $550 000.000, or about $5.25
per capita.
The figures were obtained here from
Stacey W. State Insurance Com
missloner a Fire Marshal.
Commisssioner Wade declared that
Noritt Carolina now leads all the
States of the Union in Are prevention
work. The State has a larger number
of fiilly equipped and modern Are de
partments'per capita thah any other
Commonwealth and also surpases all
others in the number of fireproof
school buildings per capita. North
Carolina is now the only State in the
U\iion that requires all state buildings
to be built of fireproof construction he
said,
Commissioner Wade, expressed spe
cial pride in the/residentlal Are lost
in this State. It/was less than seven
per cent of the t6tal loss ii\ 1924. This
remarkable showing in the burning of
residences he considers a direct result
of the teaching of Are prevention and
safety in public schools. He called at
tention to the fact that the past legis
lature passed a law requiring fire drills
in all public schools twice each month
and made it mandatory on his depart
ment to enforce the statute.
"The annual fire loss is still appall
ing in both States and Nation," ha
said, "and he greatest need of the
time is closer co-operation of the pub
lic with State fire marshals In the pre
vention of conflagrations,"
That the present recot-d is inexcus
able may be readiTy understood, he
thinks, when it Is remembered that
the annual fire loss In England and
France In 1924 ran only from 16 to 30
cents per capita.
Commissioner Wade is president
this year of the Fire Marshal's Asso
ciation of America, which will hold
Its annual convention in San Antonio,
Texas, beginning September 18. The
big problem ahead of the convention
It the appalling loss of property by
preventable fires In the laat year.
Mr. Wade says his department Is
getting ready for an Intensive obser
vance of Fire Prevention Week In
North Carolina again this year. The
record shows that heretofore this
State has led all others in success
fully staging Prevention Week and he
expects to maintain the record In 1925.
The date Is October 5 to 10.
Death Records 4how Decrease.
The Grim Reaper Is losing ground In
North Carolina.
Births in North Carolina during the
first six months of 1925 showed an in
crease over the number of births dur
ing the same period of 1924 while
dectha during 1925 showed a decreaae
from the total for the six months jtor
lod In 1924. according to flgurea made
public by the State Board of Health.
During the first six months of 1924
there were 42,030 births In the State
while during the same period in 1925
births totalled 42.197. The death total
of 17.746 in the first half of 1924 la cut
considerably In the total for the first
half of this year which la 16,828.
During the present year, the num
ber of deaths by burns far exceeds
the number of deaths by typhoid fever.
Deaths fro mautomoblle accidents ex
ceeds the number of deaths from diph
theria, fftnailpox, scarlet fever and
measles.
Typhoid fever shows a decldgd de
crease this year In deaths font laat
year During 1924 there was an aver
age of 22.5 deatha from typhoid each
month while this year the monthly
average Is only 13.85.
Bumper Crop Reported.

of Agriculture, who has Just returned
from a trip through Kaslern North

"There will be a great surplus on

Will Investigate Sanatorium.
Ample funds are available to tak*
care of all patients at the State San
atorium or who may be admitted under
the regular policy, declared Governor
McLean In a statement issued upon
his return to the city.
The Governor declared that he
thought there must be some mistake
about the Sanatoriu mauthorlties giv
ing out "any such statement." He
stated that he would make a personal
investigation at the earliest possible
moment to ascertain the "true facts."
He asked the newspapers to give hii
| statement the same prominence as
that given recent Associated Press
story.
Pending his investigation, the. Gov
ernor asks the board of directors of
the institution not to discharge any
patients.
The Governor's statement follows
In full." 1
"On Friday, as I was returning
for the first time, a news
paper containing the recent Associat
ed Press statement In regard to the
State Sanatorium for Tuberculars. I
was very much surprised to learn of
the charge that very sick patient!
would be discharged on account of
lack of funds to keep them at th«
Sanatorium and I believe there must
be some mistake about the matter be
cause the Sanatorium authorities
know, as 1 know, that ample funds are
available to take care of all patients
at the Institution, as well as others
that may be admitted under the regu
lar policy which has been in fore*
for some time.
"The last legislature appropriated
$185,000 for maintenance for Sanator
ium, which, with the recent tenta
tive five per cent reduction, leaves
a fund of 1156,750. This amount, even
If the Ave per cent reduction stands,
is a little larger than the annual ajj
proprlation available for the past two
years. Very little of the money ap
propriated by the 1925 General As
sembly for maintenance has been ex
pended since the beginning of the fis
cal year on July first.
"I Intend making an investigation
personally at the earliest possible
moment to ascertain the true tacts,
and to also find out why the Associa
ted Press statement, as It appeared in
the newspapers, was made. I will then
fire the public a full statement. In
the meantime, I Intend to request that
the Board of Directors refrain from
dismissing any one of the sixteen pa
tients In question until the facts in
regard to each case, as well as the
general policy Involved, can be ascer
tained.
"I trust the newspapers of the Stat*
will give the same position of public
ity to this statement which they gava
to the Associated. Press statement." 1
