K.'s Washington Agreement for Payment of Belgian Debt to the United States Liberal Terms Granted Final Ac tion Up to Congress. nnu.sKRi.fl. -auk. in. (a. p.) The RclKlan department of financca today ht'Knn Ita mudy of iho aitreo ment reached Ht WnshiiiKton for Iho funding of thin country' obligations lo the. United Htilten. It is umtorato'od .that at least 48 hours must olapsu before the effect tho agreement will exercise on Rel gium'a finnnces can be Judged and nn opinion rendered :ih lo whether It is considered ftatlsfa'ctory or not. WASHINGTON, Aug. 19. (A. P.) Hearing tho personal approval of President Coolidge. terms for fund ing the HclKlan war debt to the I'nlted States have been worked out by the debt commission of the two countries after negotiations of unusual brevity. Utile more than a week was re quired to bring about nn agreement on the payment of the little kingdom's debt which was estimated at $4 17, 780,000 as of June 15, 1925. The funding plan agreed on later came In the same month that eleven years ago marked the opening of the World War. The terms provide for a remission of interest on the $171, 780,000 loaned prior to the armistice and for a part remission of interest on. $246,000,000 borrowed for "recon struction work."... The agreement subject to ratlfl ailoh'by "tnV'Amerlcan congross and the Belgian government was described an recognizing by the linked States of "weighty moral obligations," as a re sult of assurance given tho country by President Wilson at the time of the Versailles peace conference and also the right of Belgium to particular and special treatment by this nation. Pay In 62 Years The terms call for complete pny mont within 02 ye'nrs. The $171,480,000 loaned during the time of actual fighting with Germany is to be paid free of all accrued or future interest. The interest on the post-armistice debt of $248,000,000 was fixed at the rate of 3H lr cent. The Americans agreed to forego a part of the interest on this nmount for tho first ten years and arbitrary amounts were establish ed bringing A reduction of nearly $50, 000,000. . The Belgians Insisted during the ne gotiations that the pre-armlsttco loan should be considered a debt by Ger many to the United Slates because such a proposal was "accepted by President Wilson at the peace con ference." Gorman Dent Penlcd The Americans, however, refused lo accept this agreement, but declared that "while'no legal obligation rests upon tho United States in tho matter, there does continue a weighty ' moral obllgalon'as a result of assurances given which entirely differentiates this sum from all other debts due the United States from foreign countries." Tho funding program in conwe- quence laid down for the pre-armlstice debt a schedule of re-pnyments call ing for Belgium to pay $1,000,000 nnd the same amount In 1HJ7 with In creases in each of the next four yenrs. when the annual payment becomes $2,900,000. The annual payment then will continue at this figure until 19K7, when a final pnyment of $2, 20,000 will bo due. . No! a Precedent Concerning the post-armlstlce loan, the settlement provides that Belgium pay $1,470,000 as interest and $1,100. 000 on the principal for the first year. The second year the total pnyment will be $3,100,000, of which $2,000,000 will be Interest. The charge for in terest then increases sharply In each succeeding year and the payment on principal will decrease until the end of the len-yenr period. In the elev enth year Belgium will pay $S. 172.000 interest and $1,600,000 principal. Thereafter payments will remain in excess of $9,000,000 per year until the debt has been liquidated." After the agreement had ben pro nounced the Bolginns had no comment to moke. Senator Sinoot, of Utah, and Representative Burton, Ohio, the American commissioners, however; ex pressed the opinion that the terms would prove acceptable to congress.
