Poincare Gives Formal Notice Of Suspension Of All Payments As Part Of Plan = Not
 Penalty, He Explains.
Threatens However, to Adopt Severe Measures to Bring Satisfactory Settle ment if Teutons Still Lag.

Paris, Aug. 5 (By Associated Press) s).-Premier Poincare at noon today notified the Germany embassy in Paris that the first of a series of measures to conserve French interests against lapse in Germanys pre-war debt payments would be put into ef- feet immediately. The notice followed receipt of a note from Germany re- fusing to meet the 100000 pounds installments of these payments to French citizens due August IS.
 Some of Measures.
 The first of the French measures consists of the immediate suspension of all payments to German nationals for debts contracted with Frenchmen before the war, both in France and Alsace-Lorraine. The offices in Paris and Strasburg which were set up to liquidate these debts were notified to cease functioning at once and to pay no more German claims until further orders from the premier.
 The initial measures also include the suspension of all further pay ments to Germans for property e. questered in France. This property includes estates, villas. art collections, etc.
 The agreement reached at Baden Baden under which Germans were being compensated for the house furnishings, stocks, bonds and cash left in Alsace and Lorraine also is suspended.
 Sounds a Warning.
 It was explained at the foreign of- flee that these first measures taken are not penalties in the strictest sense of the word but merely action to safeguard the French interests which have been jeopardized by the Ger mans refusing to pay. If these meas- ures fail to bring a satisfactory settle- ment further and more severe meas ures it was said, would be enforced.
 The nature of these is withheld pending the effect of the present Ac- ton.
