MARSHAL PETAIN WILL
OCCUPY HIGH POSITION
Retains Functions as General
issin1o to Aid War Office.

PARIS, Jan. 16.-The Cabinet has de-
cided in principle, according to a semi
official announcement, that Marshal
Petain shall occupy a high position,
analogous to Major-General. in certain
armies. at the same time retaining his
functions as Generalissimo. In this
capacity he will assist the Minister of
War.
NJ Maginot. discussing his intentions
on taking up the War Department, re-
called that he had already dealt with
military matters in the Chamber when
he was Under Secretary TO War Min
lister Etienne. At that time he defended
the three years military service; now,
however. he considered eighteen months
sufficient to secure the safety of the
country. Duration of service. he said,
seemed to depend largely on the eff
cheney of the Franco-British pact. which
the Government would have to examine.
With regard to black troops. NJ.
Maginot remarked that native contin-
gents would form an appreciable con-
tribution, as this would tighten the
military cost imposed on the country.

in a letter read tonight at the annual
dinner Of the Reading Chamber OF Com
merce. declared the American people

Declaring he had been informed that

tions in relation to our country and to

at Is a deep satisfaction to note the
active interest which organizations such
as your own are taking in these issues.
We have, as people. every reason to
cultivate the most intelligent understand
ing and definite, informed opinions re-
garding affairs which involve our rela-
tions to the rest OF the world. In the
past we have not been under the neces-
eity to devote much specialized attention
to these, but in the present state Of the

themselves encouraged and supported in
their efforts along thees lines IL they

terest among the people.
$50 ] am glad of an opportunity to
point out to a group of influential
Americans that the conference, though
its labors are not yet complete, has
already recorded a great accomplish
ment in putting definite end to costly
naval competition and in the prohibi-
tions regarding certain inhuman meth
ods OF warfare. I feel confident that
no obstacles will be placed in the way
of just agreements affecting principles
and policies in the Orient, while the
pact that has been negotiated relating
to the Pacific region contains guaran-
tees Of the utmost value for future peace
in that area.
"Inasmuch as determination of some
OF these political relationships is a vital
preliminary to the great task of eco
nomic rehabilitation throughout the
world, 1t is gratifying to feel that the
settlements to be arrived at in Washing

BRITAIN CAN ONLY PAY

Entitled to Free Adnittance,
Says London Editor.

Great Britain, IL she pays the interest
or her war debt to the United States
will have to pay II in goods. and she
would be entitled TO have these goods
admitted free, Francis W. Hirst, former
ly editor OF the London Economist, told
the faculty of New York University
School of Commerce i'm an address last
night. The address followed a dinner
given in his honor at the Wall Street
division of the university at 90 Trinity
place. About $50 professors OF econom-
les and others of the faculty were pres
ent. The visiting economic expert made
the statement with regard to interest
after saying that a government lending
money for war purposes cannot expect
to get IL back, as all OF It is used for
destruction
Few people i'm America, Mr.. Hirst
said. understand how ruinous the war
has been TO England. Besides meeting
the exactions of war profiteers. the
middle classes have been forced to lower
their standards of living in order to pay
the heavy war taxes that have been
imposed by the Government. He gave
an illustration of the situation by say
ing that the Engllshman having an in
ccme OF $4,000 has TO pay out one
third of the amount in income tax.
The speaker. referring 10 Premier
Lloyd George, said that IL he really had
settled the Irish question his sharpest

pends largely on Anglo-American CO.

MCCORMICK ASSAILED
BY TEMPS OF PARIS
Semi Official Paper Criticizes
Senator's Resolution About
European Finances.
THINKS HE MEANS FRANCE
Suggests That States With
Larger Supplies of Gold Be
More Liberal With 1t.

PARIS, Jan. 16 ASSOCIATED Press).-
An unsatisfactory piece of news comes
from the United States, says the leading
editorial of the Temps (semi- official or
gan of the Foreign Office). to-day. deal
ing with the resolution offered In the
United States Senate last week by SEN
ator Medill Mccormick. demanding In
formation from European countries re-
garding their finances. Senator McCor-
mick's explanations, says the Temps,
show that the resolution applies first Of
all to France.
''Mr. Mccormick seems to intend to
continue a campaign which means that
we are unlikely soon to see him again
in France where hardly year ago he
found welcome so cordial and resound-
ing" the editorial continues.
The Temps finds that Senator McCor-
mick's resolution is the isolated initi-
ative of one of number of similar ef-
forts to influence public opinion in that
regard. The newspaper calls attention
to a cable dispatch to the Morning Post
Of London from the United States 70
President Hai ding's approval. expects
to bring up at the forthcoming confer
ence at Genoa the question of military
expenses, budget deficits and European
debts to tile United States. Are there
persons sheltering behind Mr.. McCor-
micks resolution seeking opportunities
to intmidate France?" the Temps asks.
1T is a game we would advise them to
abandon"
The Temps then deals at considerable
length with considerations intended to
dissuade the continuance of this cam
paign and at the same time to give the
matter a general character. These con-
siderations include an attempt to ex-
plain why, the Temps says, the Euro
pean States have exaggerated their ex-
pense5. 1t continues:
Firstly, some do not receive the
sums due them for reparations second
ly. others have to pay reparations. thus
depreciating their exchange; thirdly,
mistrust Is reborn continually between
European peoples as between victims
of a shipwreck who dispute their
some to expend greatly for their army
to guarantee peace"
The Temps says the situation would
never have arisen IL financial solidarity
had been established among the allied
and associated Powers at once after
the war. The newspaper recommends
that the States with larger supplies VI
gold be more liberal towards those with
out it, as IAN attempt to monopolize the
worlds gold, conqcer all the worlds
markets and dictate laws to other ma
tions of the world at the same time is
bound to result in great disillusions."

Cormick (Ill), Republican. to-day in
troduced In the Senate, half an hour

the State Department to supply such in
formation as it has on the financial af-
fairs of European governments. The
resolution asked especially for data on
the expenditures of those governments
for military purposes.
Exception was taken by a spokesman
for the Italian arms conference delega-

sertion in his statement of several days

456,000 men with the colors. The Italian
spokesman declared Italy had announced
a reduction of her army to 100000 men.
