FRENCH F|NANC|ER
TO GIVE DEBT DATA
Parmentier Ready for Sec
ond Step in War Funding
Negotiations Here.
TO BARE FRENCH BUDGET
Facts Will Be Studied by y. S.
Treasury Experts Before Com
mission Meets.

The second step in the negotiations
leading to the funding of the $780,
0O0,000 war debt Of France to the
United States was to be taken today
at a conference between Treasury Of
fcials and Jean v. Parmentier, direc-
tor of finance of the French treasury.
NJ Parmentier was to present state
ments on the financial condition of
France with respect to the war debt
TO the United States covering the
French budget. the volume of the
country's exports and imports and
foreign and general trade situations,
as agreed upon at a meeting last
Secretary Mellon, chairman of the
DEBT funding commission.
Experts to Study Data.
After the data has been studied by
treasury experts NJ Parmentier is to
meet with the full body of the debt
commission to discuss the position of
france toward payment of her war
time obligations to this country as re-
fected in the information supplied as
to her abilities and resources. The
view has been expressed officially at
the Treasury that interest payments
by France will be further deferred
until such time as that nation can
9esin the regular liquidation of her
debt under arrangements to be
worked out by NJ. Parmentier and
the debt commission.
The present French indebtedness
totals $3,17l.000,006 of principal and
ACCRUED interest. From Nav. 1917.
to September, 1920, the Treasury
made cash advances to France under
the liberty loan acts aggregating
$Z.S9I 100000. on which there have
been repayments of $64,e00,0e0 of
principal, and interest payments of
sl5S,o0o,000 against which there is
$430.0Oe.OO0 of interest accrued and
remaining unpaid.
Evidences of these debts are in the
form of demand notes. which are to
be funded into longtime obligations
which, under the act of Congress
creating the debt commission, must
mature in not more than twenty-fi five
years and must bear interest at not
less than Az per cent.
Other French OBLIGATIONS.
In addition the Treasury holds obli-
cations OF France with fixed maturi-
ties and bearing interest at per cent
received from the Secretary of War
on account of the sale of surplus sup
plies. which, according to Treasury
ofhcials. may or may not be included
IN the funding scheme, depending on
the decision of NJ. Parmentier and the
debt comm ission.
These obligations are as follows:
s4o0.000,006. dated August /, 1919,
maturing August /, 1929, interes st paid
TO date, S30,000.000; S6,566, 600, dated
May 3. 1920. maturing MAY 9, 1890. in
terest paid, $656.000; and $774,Ooo,

NEW YORK, July 1S.-Working
feverishly to check the flames sweep
ing a warehouse in the heart of Green
wich Village, firemen today were un-
able to pierce the thick cloak of
mysterious black smoke which COM
pletely shrouded the building and
were forced to rig powerful search
lights. The fire started with an ex-
plosion about s am. Several more
followed.
BY noon, the casualty list stood at
two dead, nearly thirty injured, ana
three missing. The toll was taken
chiefly from the ranks of the fire and
police departments.
