FRANCE URGES NEED
OF PRESENT ARMY
Failure to Adopt British
American Guarantee Necessi-
tates Maintaining Force.

PARIS, Oct. 5.--The aim of the French
Government at the washington confer
ence on limitation of armament and Far
Eastern affairs Is to convince the dele
gates of other nationalities. especially
those of the American Government. tnat
France Is not unduly armed, ana that
her security requires the number OF men
now in active service. Marshal foch
will be prepared to lay before the con-
ference every particular concerning Tue
present land armaments of France.
The French attitude will be to show
Just how far France can go toward dis
armament In the face of the Information
received from Germany concerning that
country's power for prompt mobilization
and in the absence of other guarantees
than Frances own troops.
1t will be the viewpoint OF the F'rench
delegation that unless there are guaran-
ties along tho lines of those contained
in the American, British and French
defensive agreement against unwar-
ranted aggression, as elaborated by
President Wilson and Premiers Lioyd
George and Clemenceau, but never rati-
fed, that standing army OF from 4oo'-
900 to 450,000 men. with like number
subject to immediate call to mooiliza-
tion. VIII be required.
The French General Stan is declared
to have information to the effect that
every regiment in the German army as
allowed under the Versailles Treaty has
800 non-commissioned officers to each
regiment. 200 OF whom are serving as
privates. It is asserted that they au-
tomatically can be reinstated as nom
commissioned officers in the event of
mobilization. bringing the number OF
non n-commissioned men in each regi-
ment to the pre-war figure. The regi-
ments then would be able to muster 800
non-commissioned men for division.
exactly as provided for under the Ger
man mobilization plan Of 1914.
This, according to the French informa-
tion. would permit the mobilization of q
German army of 100000 men inside OF
a week, as the former soldiers are well
organized into gymnastic societies. war
veteran camps and other societies, and
are subject to prompt concentration.
France is reducing her army. The
troops in active service to-day are about
so per cent. Of the number on May / OF
this year. France then had about SOO.-
coo men under arms. She now has be-
tween 100000 and 100000, including the
army Of the Rhine and colonial troops
Figures will be Incorporated in the re-
port of Marshal Foch showing France

A Franco-German commercial agree
ment Is expected to be the outcome Of
the meeting between Louis Loucheur.
French Minister for the Liberated Re-
gions. and DIR. Walter Rathenau. Ger
man Minister of Reconstruction, in
Wiesbaden tomorrow. For year Ger
man business men of prominence have
sought to reach an understanding with
the French on the basis OF reconstruc-
ton and continental solidarity. Ger
mans assert that British opposition
broke up arrangements for a convention
in Paris last January. and hampered
the efforts of the French to reach an
agreement with Germany at the first
Wiesbaden meeting between these two
Ministers last summer.
The text of tho Loucheur-Rathenau
agreement has not been made public.
and the real reason for withholding the
text is because 1t includes important
concessions to the French, and the Ger
man Government fears that the Nation
alists might use them to excite German
opinion against the Reichstag for dis
cussing the agreement. The agreement
probably will become effective before its
full text is made public here

programme provide for large deliveries
