REHABILITATION
CHINA PLANNED
FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE ALONG
LINES OF DAWNES PLAN
PLEASES WASHINGTON
WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 4 —
Proposals which come to light in New
York for a financial rehabilitation of
China, along the line of the Dawes
plan strike a sympathetic chord in
official Washington, although it is re
alized that several elements of delay
stand in the way of actual accomplish
ment of the project.
It is pointed out that the present
state of internal affairs in China ap
pears to present a serious barrier to
the conference system of settling fin
ancial questions, applied so success
fully in Europe by General Dawes and
his associates.
In addition the “Chinese Dawes
plan” as understood here has been
projected as a sequence to the Chi
nese customs treaty negotiated at th^
Washington conference—a treaty to
which France thus far has failed to
subscribe. It cannot go into effect
without approval and Washington
is unadvised as to any present move
in Paris toward giving that approval.
Letter Is Prepared
The only direct information about
the “Dawes plan” proposal which has
reached the state department is a let

and one-half customs levy as a mea
sure designed to strengthen the Chi
nese central government.
The American creditors’ committee
suggested in its letter that when the
conference provided for in the treaty
was called the American conferees
should take steps to see that the in
crease in Chinese customs duties be
applied to the refunding of existing
Chinese international obligations.
