chamberlain hoped that a cancellation of the war debt owed to the united states could be negotiated. in june 1933, britain hosted the world monetary and economic conference. describing the event as the "most crucial gathering since versailles", "time" magazine featured chamberlain on its cover, referring to him as "that mighty mover behind british cabinet scenes, lean, taciturn, iron-willed ... it is no secret that scot macdonald remains prime minister by prime mover chamberlain's leave." the conference came to nothing, when us president franklin roosevelt sent word that he would not consider any war debt cancellation. after the us congress passed the johnson act, forbidding loans to nations in default on their debts, chamberlain felt that britain could not pay the entire debt, and, as the act made no distinction between a partial and complete default, the chancellor entirely suspended britain's war debt payments to the us.
