France Stubbol INSISTS on
Seizing RUN Ney
OTHER PREMIERS AGREED
Belgium Promised to Aid France
In Occupation of Ruhr
But Opposes Step

London, Dec. 11-(By the Associa.
ter Press)-Irhe adjournment Of the
prem.crs' conference tonight for eight
days to avert the open rupture be
tween France and England over the
German ieparations mas peen virltu
ally decided upon.
The British cabinet, ii was author.
itatively stated, rejected Poincare's
flat demand for the occupancy OF
Ruhr as a guarantee for the German
moratorium Bonar Law informed Poin'
care that the british public opinion
was overwhelmingly opposed to mill
tary measures against Germany.
London, Dec 10.-The possibility OF
the four premiers reaching an agree
mcnt which VIII enable the Brussels
conference to assemble with any pros
pect of success seems tonight to hang
on an extremely tenuous thread. AS
with all previous attempts to solve the
reparat ons problem, the ma n Difficult
ty lies in French determination to Sc.
cure penalties or guarantees of mill
tary character for the fulfillment of
German obligations.
Mr. Bonar Law in the present confer
ence has shown himself to be as warm
ly opposed to any occupation OF the
Ruhr as was his predecessor, while
the italian premier, Signor Mussolinl,
also opposes anything except what he
terms economic and productive guar
antees.
Premier poincarc asserted today
that France would demand the occu.
patton of the Ruhr as q fundamental
guarantee for any moratorium and the
stiflening of the French prem'er's at.
ttude changed the hopeful view to one
OF gloom NJ. Poincare reasserted his
demand for the Ruhr otter receipt of
advices from Paris that his attitude in
London had been interpreted in the
Chamber OF Denaties and by portion
OF the press Is a weakening II the face
of Mr.. Bonar Law
NJ. Poincare went to the premler's
meeting today in determined mood
and informed the others that France
fatty rejected Chancellor Cuno's new
proposals.
The chances Of settlement We're
anything but bright tonight, since the
British prime minister with emphas $
equal to that of the French prime
minister, said that the occupation of
the Ruhr and the exploration of the
Rhineland would be penalties, and not
economic guarantee ;"
1t became increasingly clear ton ght
that France is alone in her demands
for radical guarantees.
Mussolini favors guarantees Of a
much milder character, while Belg .um
opposes any guarantee. Of military
nature. Belgium however is in pc
cUliar position. Her fin1nciers and
economic advisers are all against the
French program, but the government
is committed to assist France II she
invades the Ruhr.
