218-1

Updated: May 5, 2025

In his last Vote of Credit speech, on November 12, 1918, Mr Bonar Law gave the chief items of the loans to Allies, and a very interesting list it was. The totals up to October 19, 1918, were £1465 millions to Allies and £218-1/2 millions to Dominions. The Allies were indebted to us as follows: Russia, £568 millions; France, £425 millions; Italy, £345 millions; smaller States, £127 millions.
