"The question of the purpose nnd
place of the (invernment In eiedjtlii,s
economic recovery Is raised in Wash
ington every hour of the day," Mr.
Hoover continued. "We are flooded
with economic patent medicines that
would cvado the stem laws of economli
hyglrae. Tho question of what the
Government can do heroines in nnrt a
question of our whole attitude toward
social and economic questions. I'nkw

no mattir how it is cnmoullaged."
?t)nc of the motit difficult problem,
the Secretary declnred. Is that of hutis.
in). Estimating that nearly 00 por
cent of tho population are living nn
tenant, he inserted that "nothing i
worse than an Increased tenantry and
lihdlordlsm in the country."
JThore are. he contended, three fields
ia which the Government can be of
assistance in remedying the housing
situation.
"First." he said, "the Government
must, as a matter of primary duty.
drive every combination out of business
that attempts to restrain trade.
"Second, the Governmtnt, to some
degree, directly or Indirectly controls
or obstructs the flow of credits nnd it.
therefore. ha a responsibility towaid
uls part ol the problem.
"Third, the Government can and
should Interest Itself in dissemination
of information, in scientific study of
certain problems in materials and meth
ods hii if in co-operation with the in
dustries to receive voluntary reduction
in wastes, tbnt the costs of homes may
b decreased."
WILL COLLECT INTEREST
FROM ALLIES, SAYS MELLON
denies Agreement to Defer British
3' Payments for Fifteen Years
...Washington. July l.V-dly A. I'.)
The treasury policy is lo proceed to
Tffiiudiiig of loans to the Allies and
tHPeWlbctloii of interest thereon at thd
earliest possible date. Secretary Mellon
declared today, rexumins discussion of
the Administration Refunding Hill
before the Senate Finance Committee.
Reports In London and New York that
an agreement had been reached to defer
Interest payment on the British debt
fifteen years, he added, were "wholly
unfounded and absolutely inconceiv
able." Mr. Mellon ileolnred. however, thnt
there might be cai-es where it would
be to the Interest of the I'nited Stntex
to defer Interest pn.wnentw. Compul
sory payment, he added, might con
ceivably act as "an embargo on Amer
ican exports," and under certain con
ditions attending the Huctuations of
foreign exchange, might impose a pen
alty on the debtor nations.
Mr. Mellon told the committee there
was "no occasion in the light of the
present situation to grant n deferment
of British Interest payments."
"If Great Krltaln should ask that
the interest on her debt he deferred,
would vou be inclined to grunt It?"
asked Senator Simmons.
"I don't believe thnt question will
arise," replied the Secretary.

the laws of a country which permitted
citizens to commit social offenses with
out depriving them of citizenship, but
deprived aliens of the privilege of be
coming citizens because they had been
guilty of similar offenses.
