(A.P.) In the isolation of this quaint hamlet.

President Coolidge grappled today with the vexing and far reaching Belgian debt problem'. With the American Debt Commission appealing to him for guidance out of the mace of negotiations with Relgium'a mission, he sought information as to the exict situation and the prospects for a refunding settlement from Secretary Mellon and Senator Smoot, of Utah. Situation Grave v. The two debt commissioners were invited here for a conference at their request, to ascertain. In advance to a resumption of negotiations between the American.and Belgian commissions In Washington tomorrow, what the Executive believed the terms of settlement should be.

The President thus far has given no indication as to what he thinks should be done. He realizes, however, the gravity of the situation and the desirability of reaching an agreement aceptable to the American public and to Congress, Must Set Precedent The in his mind, is one that must be dealt with In a firm and far sighted manner, particularly In view of the approaching refunding negotiations with France and Italy. Terms of eettlement with Belgium, he believes, may set an embarrassing precedent' for agreements with the two other debtor nations. Failure to reach in accord the mission from Brussels, he realizes further, might seriously hamper the United I States In working out satisfactory refunding' arrangements with others. in addition, the President in offering advice to the American Commission, is confronted with the terms of the settlement with Great Britain) terms which were approved by Congress, but which it is apparent the Belgian mission believes are too se vere for it to undertake.

Haggle Over Interest Nothing official has been learned here as to what terms Belgium is willing to accept for refunding the $480,000,000 debt. It is believed, however, that the main points at issue are the Interest rates and the schedule of payments. Washington advices indicated that if the negotiations were to be car ried to a successful conclusion, there must be a material yielding by the Belgians. V. Dispatches from Brussels said' that should the negotiations fall through the question of submitting the entire debt problem to arbitration would be raised In the Belgian Parliament.

The; idea of calling an inter allied debt conference, the dispatches state, was gaining ground, and it was observed that King Albert might produce a profound effect by revealing the details of his airplane visit to Paris while President Wilson was deliberating 'with the Allies on 'the debt question.

A good credit record should be maintained by all purchasers of merchandise on the installment plan, as well as those, who enjoy open account privileges.

The credit rating of a person is based on payment being made promptly on due dates. Lease accounts are sold upon a contract stipulating the due date, and mer chants expect payments to be made at that time or reason given for the delay.

The President turned his attention to International affairs to day after a week end free from the cares of office. Yesterday, before attending services In a little church across the road from hia family home, he took a ride through the hills in a Ford touring car with three eecret service men. Leaves Auto to Hike After bouncing around on the winding with the going be coming Increasingly difficult, Mr, Coolidge and his companions left the automobile and set out on a hike to the summit of Messerhill.

Discarding his coat and donning in Its stead a blue, denim smock, which he Anally took off because of the heat, the President set a fast pace up and down 'hjll, through underbrush and across sti earns. Finally gaining: the top of the hill which he used to scale as a youth, he paused for a few moments to survey the valleys below, gazed off at the White mountains in the distance, then with unchecked pace, followed a devious route to the automobile for a bumpy ride home.
