Dec. 7 Just about the time Russia was breaking break-ing relations - with Finland and laying the groundwork for invasion, invas-ion, the State Department was preparing to dispatch the little "please remit" notices which ordinarily ord-inarily get attention from Finland, and . Finland alone . " On Dec. 15, payments on Europe's Eu-rope's debts to the United States come due. ., Late in November the State Department asked the treasury for' a statement of the various accounts. , The - treasury had just finished its , reckoning when Russia broke with Finland. 'Due from Finland on Dec. 15 is $234,693, representing a $74,000 payment on principal, $141,662.50 in interest, and $19,030.50 due under the moratorium agreement In 1932. .

When Mrs. Roosevelt remarked that she, wouldn't mind coming, Chairman. Dies said he'd consider the matter which undoubtedly is as far as it will get. , .. . New Deal groups here figure that Mrs. Roosevelt could take a lot of the zip out of the committee's commit-tee's work if she once got in its witness chair.
