Former French Commissioner To This Country Suggests
 America Be Consulted

- PARIS. Feb. 3.-(By the Associated Press) - The French parliament, chamber and senate, today approved the governments declaration on the decisions Of the supreme council res pecting reparatiOnS, disarmament and other questions. It received Premier Priand's declaration with all signs that promise large majority in the vote ot confidence which the Briand cabinet will seek tomorrow.
 Andre Tardieu, former high com missioner to the United States, had given notice of an interpolation This appeared to be taken most seriously by the government. but was a mod crate attack against the cabinet, es- pecially NJ. LOucheur, and on the haste France had displayed to settle matters concerning the United States before the new administration was installed Criticising the Paris con ference. he declared:
 There can be no capitalization. mo- biliZation or discOunJing of the Ger man debt until the United States is d party to the agreement
 Decisions of the allied conference. te asserted. were embodied in the Versailles treaty. The conference he was useless. All that might have been done was to hold the Germans strictly to the treaty
 Article 24v ofthe treaty settled financial obligations; ar ticIe 23S provided for the manner in which the indemnity must be paid, and for turning the matter over to the reparatiCns commission, he said With reference 10 disarmament. no were needed except en- lorcement Of JheJreaty. With respect Iorcement of the treaty. With respect the seizure of the German customs
 Nj. Briand informed the deputies that the government ''has in no wise the purpose of collecting the entire debt due from Germany If she recOvers her economic prosperity
 Germany woudl have to pay to the limit Of her capacity
 The declaration was received with silence. NJ. Briand, Tar iieu. Margarine, LacOtte and the Communist leader. NJ. CachIn. pre- sented their arguments much as might the board of directors Of a 1i- lancial organization.
 M. Tardieu will continue tomorrow hen NJ. Loucheur minister of 'fi- nance, who was attacked, will reply. Then NJ. Briend will answer Nj Ca chin. who read the declaration or the It advocates a world vide revolution and immediate peace with Moscow.

The Tennessee senator challenged supporters of the bill to show how il would aid the farmers. asserting that little Of their products remained on the farm. He declared the proposed tariff on sugar would mean only that congress was 'legiSlating money into the pockets of the sugar trust" and estimated that on three necessities meats. flour and sugar, the country would be taxed between Sl .500. .O0O. 900 and Se,OOO, 100000.
 Senators have admitted that this bill is going to help the speculators and the profiteers more than any body else. The senator from Kansas knows it. too. yet I suppose he will vote for it, want to say that 1T he does. after the speech he has made, he will have to hold his nose"
 Senator Mclean. Republican Of Con necticutt, said that the intention was to save the agricultural industry. Me Kellar replied that the life of the law would. be too short. Mclean replied that while it might cause an increase in prices he felt the better course would be for the Country to pay them now. rather than to await destruc- tion of the farming business and then pay high prices permanently"
 Senator Fletcher accused the Re publicans of using the tariff bill to make protectioniSts out of all farm CTS and sew up their votes on every protective tariff matter"
 The senate will meet an hour ear Her tomorrow
