The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in France (Herrick)

[Paraphrase]

153. By a vote of 226 for and 111 against, the House of Representatives has adopted the French debt settlement. The Senate will not act until action has been taken by the French Parliament. The Congress is ready to adjourn and is simply awaiting French action on adoption of the debt settlement. What prospects are there for speedy action?
