Ministers Discuss War Debts.

LONDON, May Zil-Both Right- Hon, Philip Snowderl and Right Hon. J. H. Thomas. former Labor cabinet ministers, tonight returned to the war debts question and attacked the settlements as unfair to Britain.

“The French budget Just publish- ed discloses a surplus." said Mr. Snowclcn at Bradford. "France is re- lieving taxation to the extent of ten million pounds. She is spending mon- ey she ought to have paid us in. lend- ing to Poland and other servile states ‘for purposes at military equipment. She is spending it in creating the greatest air fleet in the world, which ‘as Lord Balfour said could only be la menace to Britain. "Bhe Ls also spending it in making herself a more formidable competit- or of this country in the worlds trade markets. These debt settle- ments arc costing the counzry for the next 60 years a. sum which would give pensions of 30 shilings a week i0 a million old persons." And at Derby, Mr. Thomas declar- ed: "It would be far better to end all these settlements and start afresh. But if they are not going to be wiped out we are nct going to stand by and see our country bled white for the benefit of other nations."
