PARISH July l9.-Ali the members
of the committee on guarantees are
now in Paris 10 begin today the,prep-
aration for their final report.
They brought with them several
hundred documents respecting Ger
many's financial and economic-situa-
ton. Theses documents have formed
the back ground for the conclusions
which they are now framing. Until
this work is completed and the report
presented to the reparations commits
sion the whole reparations question
will be held in suspense.
Premier Poincare is regarded in well'
informed circles in Paris as having
maneuvered Prime Minister Lloyd
George into position where the
British government Will agree to re-
duce considerably the FRENCH debt 70
England and TO renounce the BRITISH
share in German reparations.
Position Of British.
The British position is presented as
insisting that Germany could not pay
all that is being demanded OF her and
that France must agree to less.
The substance of the French reply
has been:
You ask France Ito take less; are
you willing to accept tilesstyoprselves.
You want France .stoL pay her war
debts to you. but not to insist upon
payment of her claims, collectively
authorized by the allies against Ger
many
Mr.. Lloyd George is described as
coming more toward acceptance Of
81 nf
thought that since it seemed evident
that both the Genoa and The Hague
conferences had failed and that the
German situation was daily becom-
mig more critical, an approximation
to the French point of view was in
evitable.
One of the widest-read newspapers
in France, the Petit Parisien. which
circulates throughout the provinces
as we'll as in Paris. today gives its
support to the possibility of dimin-
ishing the total which Germany would
be forced to pay reparations. thus
attempting the difficult task of bring
ing the French public into line with
the British point of view.
Fatal Disorders Condemned.
No country can be permitted to in
troduce fatal disorder into Europe.
it said After dealing with the de-
cline of the mark and the issue of
paper money. it continues:
THAT is why two correlated meas
ures seem to be inevitable.
First, agreement with all Anglo
Saxon opinion for relief for Ger
many from the pretexts she can base
on the $4,000, 100000 nightmare, re-
lief which can be given by COM
pensation for part Of this debt
through adjustment of the inter-
allied debts. although it is unjust
to treat alike the debt imposed upon
Germany through her misdeeds and
that which France contracted for the
common cause.
Second. an even more necessary
, measure is the efficient control of
Germany's finances. however dificult
the organization may be-
The Paris papers generally avoid
discussion of the proposed reduction
of Germany's liability.
