FRANCES GREAT PROBLEM
That of Reconstruction Supersedes all others, Financial Adviser of Dele gatiOn Says.


 gatiOn Says.
 New York, Dec. 15.-The problem of reconstruction supersedes all others in France, Maurice Casenave, chief financial advisor to the French dele gation at the arms conference, de- clared in an address today before dinner of the national industrial con- ference board. The economic situa- tion of France, he added, must nec- essariy be of interest to the whole world.
 He described the recent Wiesbaden agreement between Germany and France as the most momentous of all negotiations since the treaty of Yer sailles."
 Tt begins a collaboration with the living, working Germany-with that part of Germany which honestly wants to pay it's debts," he declared. Tt proves that France does not seek to ruin Germany"

large and there was door at each

smaller one for lions. Both were
closed with heavy masses OF stone
that had been lowered in grooves
running to the floor. Tho two win
dows were small and closely barred
with the first iron that Tarzan had
seen In Palui.don. The bars were
let into holes In the casing, and the

his Incarceration Tarzan had com.

the stone from about the bars Of one
