TO TAKE
 DEFINITE ACTION
Agree That Germany is Entitled
 to Know Their Stand

Parts Dec. 1G, -- tBy Associated Ircas) The allied roparations com mission meeting today to consider the German notice of inability to pav the next two installments in full aud requesting cNtcusiOn of time, NrtuaI- lN agreed at this mornings session that the commission should take drtj- mite action on the request instead of referring the question to the allied governments
 The note received yesterday from Germany stated that she could not meet in full the payments due Jan uarY 5 and February ,, of 800, ,0OO,- GOO gold marks each.
 The note declared that, even with the time extension, payment in full depended upon the success or efforts to obtain q foreign loan.
 Customs receipts and revenues from other sources which Germany had intended to use in making the payments has netted only from 1bO,- GOO, ,O00 to 2OD,0OO,O00 gold marks, the note continued The length Of &h" delay requested was not mention- td. but no request was made for a moratorium.
 Although the note cannot be de scribed as curt it is regarded in separations circles as remarkable for it's lack of details or expression of re gret over it's failure 10 live up to the agreement. For these and other req sons, the note has made a very bad impression in French circles.
 twill the Ruhr be occupied this time?"
 "Germany cannot pay but her in dustry pays so per cent. dividends. '
 These are some of the captions in the morning newspapers. The note surprises none of the commentators. but confirms and strengthens the feeling on the part Of the majority Of them that moderation is useless with Germany the ''big stick" being the only policy comprehensive to her in their opinion.
 Says the Figaro:
 Germany doesn't want to pay any thing and f. her debts were rcmttted she would soon be asking for indem- nities"
 Le Journal asserts that German industrial magnates have 1000, ,00O,- GOO gold marks deposited in foreign banks, but that they demanded such outrageous terms in return for aid to the government that Chancellor Wirth was obliged to refuse, lacking the courage or strength to require of them more disinterested aid,
