nancial Insiders know that Greek
finances are generally run by London.
Behind the Greek test mouse, they
scented the presence of the more for
midable British Hon. If Britain la
leading up to a part payment of In
terest, It Is time for everyone to sit
up and take notice.
Visions of reopening the interna
tional finance market were Immedi
ately conjured. That would provide
a way to get rid of our excess gold.
It might lead to stabilization, restor
ation of foreign markets, cure of
domestlo unemployment In fact to
a sort of International Utopia.
It la a pretty picture, but you can
rest assured It la Just as remote as
Utopia.
Of course, it la recognized that
Greece is not making the payment
for fun. Nor are our authorities at
the empty war debt cash box here
greatly inspired by the hope that
Athens has suddenly become conscience-striken,
it is generally con
ceded that the European debt con
science is beyond repentance. No
one pays on a latent obligation these
daya without a. prospect of getting at
least twice as much as he pays. " "
The Greek purpose seems to be to
get at least twice as muoh around
the Johnson act. This Is the law
preventing defaulting governments
from seeking loans in this country.
By paying a few thousand dollars,
Greece may remove herself from the
class of defaulters, then she may try
to borrow some big money.
U. S. government authorities know
this or suspect it to a degree which
borders on conviction. They also
recognize the probability that the
Greek offer la a European test case.
Even so, there will be no Utopia.
The reason there won't be Is that
too many people In this country are
against that method of temporary
business expansion. The Greeks may
be able to float a small loan here.
There are enough good restaurant
proprietors from the homeland to
buy bonds within their flnanctal
limitations. But even If that test
case should prove to be successful In
.the next six months or so, It will not
be an authentic precedent. Britain
