BORAH BALKS AT Settled Once for 50 Cents On Dollar, Says Idaho SenatorShould Live Up to Agreement, Contention WASHINGTON, Dec. 3. (JI, J sharp split further developed on Cap! tol Hill today on the question of granting further reduction In the 12,000,000,000 war debt Europe owes the United States. It followed a disclosure that France, In an Informal and wholly tentative way, and made overtures looking to- wuxd a possible settlement of the debt question. Prance, which owes the United States 94.061.334,000, has been In default five years, along with U other nations. Settled Once Senator Borah (R, Idaho), ranking minority member In the senate for aign relations committee, said he was "opposed to reopening the war debt question." "A reduction In the French wax debt does not appeal to me," the ehaggy-halred senator told newsmen, "We settjrd that debt once for about AO cents on the dollar. "I think we have been generous enough, and we are dealing with the taxpayers' money." Borah asserted that the original French war debt agreement was "reached after full hearings." They agreed to the settlement, and were satisfied," he declared. "It seems to me the might to live up to It." Borah added that he did not "see why we can expect them to live up to a new settlement any better than they did to the old one." England Different England has "some reason to ask it further reduction," hs said, "be cause of the liberality we showed to other nations," , Nothing would do more to encour age rearmament and war, Borah said, than for the ITnlted States "to con tinue to take 10 cents on the dollar In settlement of old obligations." The Idahoan's assertions made at press conference called soon after nls arrival here from the west was Dew evidence of the split which has developed on Capitol HlU on the question of granting further reduc tions In the 812,000,000,000 war debt Europe owes the United States.
