Germany apparently Is "sittng

Official circles in Paris have been AZ
non-communicatlyc upon the status of
the negotiations. but newspaper ar
ticles regarded as Inspired declare
that France will not even consider
Germany's proposition. 1t seems some
one must back down.
The speech of chancellor Lloyd
George at the lord mayors banquet IN
London last week Is regarded here as
being designed to "stiffen Frances
backbone" Tho hamburger News
however, declares hat the world no
longer is inumidatod by the swish OF

Lloyd George as The radical agl-

The German press is unanimous in
urging the government to stand firm
while the pam German section of the
