The possibility OF commercial compe-

effort of her own, will prosper. while
French industries will suffer, is being

At present the difference in the ex-
change of France and Belgium does not
affect the world markets greatly, Dui
economists declare that the sudden
throwing of the priority payments into
the Belgian treasury will have the GER
tain effect of improving the value of the
Belgian franc, and they even prophesied
that the rate OF exchange of the Bel

persist in its lowly position.
"In other words" it says, '1n the near
future Belgium will be able to pur-
chase raw materials and industrial ne
cessities for less than half the price
France will have TO pay"
THE NEW YORK HERALD correspondent
here was informed this mor1.ng that
the subject has been under considera-
ton by the Foreign Office ever since
Premier Lloyd George left Paris, but no
conversations with the Belgian Govern
ment concerning 1t have commenced SO
far.
1t is generally believed in official cir
cles here that Belgium Is willing to
waive her priority payment claim on the
German reparations il her economic
solidarity with France and England Is
obtainable thereby. and the report that
Belgium is considering another tax on
personal and commercial revenues Is
believed here to indicate she will en-
deavor in this manner to cover her
deficit for which purpose her priority on
German reparation payments was ap-
proved.

JAPANESE MOVE TO CUT
MILITARY EXPENSES
Opposition Party Comes Out
for Reducing Armament.
By the Associated Press.

TOXIC, Feb. An echo OF the re-
duced armament campaign which is
being carried on by Yuklo Ozaki, a for
mer leader of the Kensei-Kai or opposi-
tion party, is found In the decision OF the
kokumin-To, or Nationalist party, TO re-
turn the budget to the Government with
the request that 1t reconsider and cur
tail appropriations for military purposes.
The Kokumin-To party declares that
approval OF the budget would mean an
increase OF taxation In coming years
and charges that the inclusion of an
additional 15O,000.000 yen for national
defence would be in. violation OF the
pledge given the previous Diet and also
be tantaInount to deceiving the nation.
1t is urged that the budget be reframed
on the basis of shorter army service
and for improvement In education.
The Kensei-Kal party also has de-
clared itself in favor of reframing the
budget, claiming that it's adoption In its
present form would mean an additional
overwhelming burden on the people
through increased taxation.
Progressive leaders like Saburo Shi-
mada. President of the House of Rep
resentatives. and others have decided to
join NJ. Ozaki in an independent arma-
ment curtailment campaign, in the belief
that the world situation and Japan's own
future make an international agreement
imperative.
The conservative newspaper Jiji
Shimpo thinks that Japan has a golden
opportunity to restrict armaments and
take advantage Of the world tendency
to observe naval holiday. 1t calls at
tention to the fact that while nearly
half the budget is devoted to armament
This dsproportionate utilization OF
the States income" adds the paper, ais
largely the cause of the present financial
difficulties. Despite the necessity for the
completion of the country's defences it
cannot be gainsaid that there is room for
retrenchment in military expenditure.,

COLBY SEES GERMAN
SAME OLD DECEIYER
FrOpagandists at Work Here
to Prejudice U. S. Against
France, He Says.
Srecial Despatch to THE NEw York HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, II. g.. Feb. ..


Wa ashlngton, ~. C., Feb. ..
German propagandists are still Ut
work in this country and their efforts
arc now directed toward prejudicing the
American mind against France, accord
ing TO letter addressed to Senator
Kellogg (Minn.) by Secretary of State
Colby. This letter was in reply to one
addressed to the State Department by
the Minnesota Senator enclosing a
communication from the st. Paul joint
committee of the Catholic Order of
Foresters protesting against alleged
misconduct OF French negro troops in
the occupied portion or Germany.
Mr.. Colby points out that the French
colorcd troops have been withdrawn ana
that the complaints made are clipped
from the New York StaatS-Zcit,m0. Mr..
Colby's letter says:
"AS soon as the first complaints were
received an investigation was made.
and from reports received from diplo-
matte and American military sources 1t
is understood that there arc at the
present time no black troops in the oc-
cupied territory, the French having re-
moved such troops some time ago. II
is believed, however. that there are GER
tain Moroccan troops still employed in
the armies of occupation. such troops
being Arab or n mixture of Arab,
French and other nationalities. So far
as is known the Germans have made no
accusations against the conduct Of these
troops. In order however. to procure
the latest Information on the subject,
the Department has recently tele-
graphed for n summary OF tho number
and origin of all French colonial troors
now stationed in Germany.
THE number of Selegaiese troops in
the occupied regions was never large.
The specific attacks made against them
in the German press have in most cas- s
been refuted by investigation or by tcsti-
mony on the part OF responsible Ger
mans, and who're individuals have been
found guilty they have been promptly
punished. The American authorities in
the Rhineland state that the stories OF
atrocities originate not in the occupied
regions but in Berlin, and appear to be
very largely anti-French propaganda.
This opinion would appear to be
carried out by the fact that the agita-
tion in The United States Is carried on
largely by the German language press
the petition which you enclose being
clipped from the New York Stats
Zoitung, a German language paper. liz
asmuch as It is the understanding of the
Department that there arc no colored
army units in the occupied regions and
no recent examples or misbehavior have
been brought forward. 1t would appear
that these appeals as indicated above
must be part OF widespread propa-
ganda directed against France"

Ru The Asaocinted Pre- SIS.

PARIS, Feb. 9.-In the course OF the
debate in the Chamber to-day leading
up to the vote of confidence Deputy
Charles dc Lastcyrie answered the
speech made yesterday by Louis
Loucheur, Minister or Liberated Regions,
in which he had declared the payment
OF annuities by Germany was the only
solution of the reparations problem.
Andre Lefevre. when he began to
speak on the question of German dis
armament, was interrupted by Premier
BRAND, who said that the disarmament
question was a thing of the past.
Turning from disarmament TO repa-
rations, Deputy Lefevre told the Cham
ber that according to his reckoning the
allied demands upon Germany. with
compound interest. would exceed one
trllion francs at the end of forty-two
years. the term over which the repa-
ration payments. as fixed by the Paris
plan are to extend.
To demand such sum, NJ. Lefevre
declared. was indefcnsible. and impos-
sible of satisfaction.
"It might have been better to have
asked less and received more he said.
This is the first time in the course
of the reparations discussions that men,
tion has been made Of so large sum
as trillion francs.

MUNICH, Bavaria. Feb 8 (delay ed } -
With DIR. Won Kahr, the Premier. presid-
ing the Cabinet debated the question of
disarming the Bavarian civil guard at a
long session to-day. It was reported
that the question OF the resignation of
the Cabinet came up for early discus
sion. A decision in this respect was i'm
possible because the question who should
take over the Government was left in
allegiance.
DIR. Won Kahrs Government is re-
ported to be cinging to the attitude that
the disarmament issue cannot be de-
tached from the rcparations problem
and that the Bavarian Government is
determined to await the outcome of the
London conference before arriving at
any definite decision.
