GEORGE

CANNOT AGREE
England and France Are

Payment of Repara-
tions

London. Aug. 9.-( (By the ASSOciat-
ed Press Premier POinCare, of
France, and Prime Minister Lloyd
George OF Great Britain, are appar-
emily farther apart on what is to be
done with Germany than when they
met previously and consequently the
meeting of the council OF ministers is
in danger OF breaking up with the
FranCo-British relations worse than
ever and with no agreement on the
reparation5 question. 1t is possible,
however. that France may consent to
Il short moratorium to Germany.
NJ. Puncare has indicated that
things cannot go on as they are and
France may take definite action.
NJ Theunis. of Belgium, is striving
to bring the British and French poll
Cies nearer together.
Committees of finance ministers and
experts met again to pass on the
form of their report to the full com
mittee later in the day. Part of Pre-
mier Poincare's program agreed to by
the British was that regarding the
taking over of the state forests and
mines on the left bank of the Rhine
NJ. BemelmanS. the Belgian expert,
was requested by the committee to
draw the report in non-committal
manner, simply arranging in order at
least opposition to the various prnci-
pies with the estimates OF probably
yield of each if adopted.
The estimate begins with the sug
gestion that the proposed PC per cent
tax on German exports shall be col
lected as the shipments leave Ger
many, not by the Allied importing
countries when the goods arrive at
their frontiers.
London, Aug 9.-The division OF
opinion among the delegates regard
ing Premier POincare's plan for con
troll of Germanys finances in return
for a moratorium for Germany would
be irreconciiable The opponents
base their objection to the plan on
the declaration that it would be non
productive or it would cost more than
it would produce.
Report from Berlin is that the con-
ference is being closely watched
there. The correspondent of The
Times says Chancellor Wirth has
stated that if the conference breaks
down Germany will be at the end of
her courage and must lay down her
tools.
1t was admitted that the situation
was very difficult.
The differences between the French
and British viewpoints on the repara-
tiOns problem which seem to be threat
ening the break up of the conference
were discussed at length over their
breakfast this morning by Lloyd
George and Poincare.
This diplomatic breakfast" which
lasted for three hours, was the out
standing feature of the early part of
the conferences third day. Premier
Poincare went directly from his ho-
