GERMAN PREPARATION
QUESTION IS BEFORE
COUNCIL OF ALLIES
tBy Associated Press)

CANNES, France, Jan. 7.-The Al
lied supreme council planned to begin
consideration of the question of Ger
many's war reparations today, in an
atmosphere somewhat cleared by yes
terday's decision to get together with
Russia and Germany in an interna-
tional, financial and economic confer
ence. The air of pessimism noticeable
Immediately preceding the opening OF
the council was largely dissipated by
the successful results of the first days
session
The Belgian delegation has announc-
ed that it will insist on Belgian's pri-
ority to 2500,000,000 gold marks OF
the German reparations. This is re-
earded as an important obstacle to
the British plan. which the French are
disposed to accept in part.
Both the Belgians and the French
are opposed to moratorium for Ger
many, but the French are inclined to
agree to a reduction in the cash pay
ments, provided the difference is
made up by deliveries of reparations
in kind. The British stick to their
proposal to reduce the total payment
due this year from 2,00O, 900 900 gold
marks to 500,000,000 marks on condi
ton that materials be delivered to the
value of 2,000,000,000 gold marks.

terested in the campaign for Russian
relief will be held with s. E. Mich

and will open the doors to American
markets along this line of commercial
interests as soon as Russia can get
on her feet again.

ular thing by attending this conference
