WaSHlNGTON, Afg. 15.-Prcsi-dent
Wilson today ionnnlly disap
proved of the plans of Amerienn
bankers floating loans in the United
States for the benefit of belligerent
countries of Kurope, but expressed
no objections to loans made to neu
tral countries.
A formal statement to this effect
wns prepared for issue through the
state department later in the day.
The mention of neutral countries in
the expression from tho American
government was mndu because it is
understood Switzerland is endeavor
ing to float n big loan in the United
Stntcs. The Swiss charge d'nffnires
had a conference with Secretary
Ilrynn today, but declined to discuss
his visit.
Morgan Mado Inquiry
The rejection of the proposal lhat
American bankers be permitted to
float a loan for belligerent countries
resulted from nn inquiry from J. P.
Morgan & Co., in which they stated
that certain private interests had
approached them concerning a pos
sible loan to France. The Morgan
firm stated that no request had come
from tho French government nnd
Hint the 'inquiry was made' early tit
learn the attitude nf the state de
partment in ease such action might
follow.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 15. Seery

land had made fonn.-tl inquiry as to
the attitude of the Uuifed States
toward tho floating of a loan for her
in this country, nml that the state
ment with reference to neutral coun
tries was intended to cover the in
quiry today by the Swiss ehnrge
d'affaires.
Ilryan's Statement
Later Secretary lirynn gave out
the following statement:
"Inquiry has been made as to the
attitude of this government in case
American bankers nre nsked to mnke
loans to foreign governments durin;
the wnr in Kuroite, the following an
nouncement is made:
"Thero is no reason why American
loans should not be,, made to a neu
tral nation, but in the judgment of
this government, but loans to any
nation nt war by American bankers
h not consistent with the true spirit
of neutrality."

bccoino very ncuto since tbo exist
ence of war between Knglnud and

an article evidently inspired in of

that Great Rritaiu pud Franco did
not really declare war on Austria,
but simply announced that a state of
war existed by reason of Austrii's
