CONFERENCE SEEKS METHOD
TO FORCE GERMANY TO PAY

France to extremities. We do not de-
sire to ruin Germany but we want TO
save ourselves from ruin"
NJ. Poincare asserted that the conten-
ton that France had not taxed her
self was unfair. 1t was his opinion that
Sir Robert Horne's comparisons of the
income tax Of England and France were
unjust.
Many French Taxes.
The French Premier thought that SUI
ficient account had not been taken OF
other forms of taxation in France be-
fore saying that France had not a high
enough Income tax. He asserted that no
reference was made by those who at
tackled Frances taxation system to local
and departmental taxation. The French
head showed how the ten richest de
partments in France, which had been the
heaviest taxpayers. had been destroyed
by the Germans. and therefore were un-
able to pay taxes.
The French Premier complained that
France must continue to pay for the
restoration of the devastated provinces
unless Germany does.
I'VE would have been I'm the same fin
ancial situation as Germany is now.
had we followed her course" he added
When the conference reconvencd for
its afternoon session Premier Lloyd
George said II Germany failed to meet
her obligations It would be matter of
serious concern to all the Allies. He en-
phasized that all would suffer equally.
He cited figures which had been issued
by the Bankers Trust Company of New
York which he characterized as "an
impartial authority" showing that the
French expenditures on the war had
amounted to $37 .50o. COO. 900. those of Italy
sl4. 500 10000 and those of Great Britain
$40 O00. .0OO. 900.
The Premier argued that Great
Britain's claims to reparations, there
fore, were az great as those OF France
During the war, he said. Great Britain
had raised $4,000, 100000 by taxation
He parried a statement of NJ. Poincare
on the devastation of France by calling
attention to the devastation to British
trade.
German Surprise Impossible.
Mr.. Lloyd George sought to assuage
tie French fears Of The incomplete dis
I armament CT Germany. He cited his
own experiences as Minister of Muni-
tons and related the process of making
munitions for war. He said: Germany
is not in a position to plot a military
surprise on her old enemies. Ny expert
ences have convinced me that II would
take Germany thirty years to accumu-
late secretly the war materials which II
took US. working full blast, two years 10
manufa cture."
He asserted that Germany had suf-
fered three revolutions. but that the
Government there. on the whole. was
stable. He contended that 1t had not
done badly as regards taxation. adding
Germany is crying out. is always cry
terrible
When man says he is sick you don't

Special Cable to THE New York HERALD.
Copyright, 1929, by THE NEW fonK HERALD.
MEXICO, Aug. president Obregon
has approved the agreement on Mex
ico's finances reached in New York by
the international bankers and Mr..
De la Huerta, subject to the approval
of Congress. Ell Universal. which
this evening makes this announce
ment. quotes from a dispatch sent by
De la Huerta to Thomas w. Lamont,
1.-THE President of the Republic at 3
P. M. to-day ratified the agreement
made on June 16 in New York"
MEXICO CITY. Aug. (Associated
Press) Mexico again has been told
by Charles E. Hughes. American Sec
retary Of State, that Mexico's accom-
plishments regarding guarantees for
American properties and interests
must be more of deeds and less OF
words if American recognition is to be
extended to Mexico. according to Er-
ceIsiOr.
A communication to this effect, the
paper says, was delivered by George
T. Summerlin. the American Charge
d,Affaires. to Foreign Minister PAM
last Thursday. in answer to the Mexi-
can Foreign Office notes of May and
"a, in which it was asserted that
Mexico would provide the guarantees
aimed to be secured by treaty OF
amity and commerce as insisted upon
by the State Department at Washing
ton.
Excelsior asserts that II possesses re-
liable knowledge of the communication.
which IL describes as embodying friendly
insistence by Mr.. Hughes that recogni-
ton OF Mexico must be preceded by
some written guaranty that American
holdings In Mexico are not to be SUBJ
ject to confiscation.
While the American Embassy and the
Mexican Foreign Office had nothing to
divulge, from other sources II was
learned that the communication referred
to by Encelsior was in the form of a
letter from Mr.. Hughes to Mr.. sum-
merlin dated July rs.
It is understood that Mr.. Hughes
while Insisting on a treaty. points out
that it in nowise shall impugn Mexican
sovereignty nor offend Mexican national
pride or dignity The letter is said to
call attention to the apparent confisca-
tory program which has been carried
out during the Obregon administration
against American property owners and
to say that until fair and reasonable
compensation Is provided formal diplo-
matte relations between the United
states and Mexico cannot prevail.
