PARIS. Dec. is.-The shadow Of re-
awakening German naval power, which
with the aid Of Russia, would easily
be enabled 10 exceed the limits set
BY the Treaty o. versaillss, eompel'
France to adopt a new program Of
naval building for the protection OF
her coasts. Minister Of Marine Raj.
hertz announced 10 the Chamber OF
Deputies to-day.
The naval chief dropped a hin. that
the government believes 'he washing
tom treaties will be rr,Ihed by France,
however. when he said that the new
program will conform 70 the agree
ments reached there.
Replies to Socialists
Repiylng 10 the Socialist query OF
last week, Against whom must France
protect her coastsi" Raiberti said to-
day:
"Aralns, Germany. whom che Treaty
Of Versailles left a menacing NUMBER
OF cruisers, destroyers, torpedo boats
naval equipment and sailors. Fifteen
thousand German sailors are under
going intensive instruction. with a
certain number cf officers these form
the framework for a navy OF the pre-
war German ealiber, without mention
ing those who are secretly preparing
for naval career AZ the scientific
schools. Nothing prevents Germany,
either. from constructing big additional
naval units In Russia, and perhaps
utilizing the Soviet navy, which Is be-
ginning 70 grow"
Raiberti said that the French navy
had been reduced by 100000 tons since
1914 and aho had considerably de-
Perforated, because within the last eight
years all the naval powers except
France had reconstructed their fleets.
For 1879. he said. there remain in the
French fleet only three capital ships,
three cruisers which we're obsolete
two years ago. and twelve torpedo
boats and submarines under the new
program.
Must Protect Nation
"The French navy Is dying" he
said. "and this should be known
abroad" This declaration was ap-
plAuded.
"But," he continued, "Frhnee has
i.5O0 miles Of coast 10 defend and she
must assure iiaison with her colonies
and even guarantee the existence Of
the nation, and so she must build. The
government will therefore present a
program within the limitations OF the
Washington treaties IL Parliament
ratifes them"
Raiberti declared that the naval air
craft Of France we're also In bad shape
and must be revived IN order 10 give
proper protection 10 the French coasts.
However. he announced that the 1898
naval budget would be 100000 francs
lower than that Of 1922.

ddered a. a rart Of the reparations
problem. President Harding and hss ed-
wiser are patiently waiting TOT me
clamor to subside. They have pointed
out again and again In conversations
which ought 70 have reached the gov
ernments in Paris and London, that
from the point Of view 81 the Cniteo
states there Ia absolutely no connec-
ton between debts 3wing 70 this coun-
cry BY The Allies and the reparanonh.
A. this government views the situA-
tion, the reparatiOns question SINNERS
down 10 one simple interrogatlcn
eHow much can Germany pay Per-
hsps this should be modified 20 read (:
"How much can Germany be com.
PEELED 20 payl"
The belief Of this government is that
Germany should be compelled 70 pay
just as much as the Allied govern.
ments can extract from her on the
theory stated officially BY Secretary
Hughes that the German government
should be compelled 20 pay 20 the
limit Of Germanys ability 10 do 80.
The amount, however. Is something
which. in the opinion OF President
Harding and his advisers. should be
determined By experts, and after being
90 determined should be regarded as
settled question.
Setting Sem First Task
The plan which this government is
formulating looks 70 the accomplish
ment Of that purpose. With that
agreed upon the rest Of the troubles
Of western Europe could be adjusted
after the example set In the four
power Pacific pact.
To The British and French claims
that debts 10 the United States must
be considered in connection with TINS
problem, the answer Of the United
States "a very Arm and, In the view OF
officials here, very obvious. IL is;
what bearing has any dept OF
Britain OF France 20 the United states
on the question Of how much money
can be obtained from Germany"
II 10 not a question Of how TO bal.
nhce the budgets OF France or OF
Britain. This government has friend.
iy concern, as well as the interest OF
creditor. In that operation. But II
insists that the mere fact that France
and Britain both owe money TO the
United States has nothing whatever 20
do with a calculation as 70 how mueh
reparatiOn money can be extracted
from Germany
No ResTLoss 70 France
The contention Of the French that u
the amount Of reparations they are TO
receive from Germany is to be cut down
certainly their debts 10 the United
States and 70 Britain should be Tor
given ls the real stumbling block. The
american governments answer Is that
IN asking that the amount Of repara.
tions be fixed this government Is not
asking the French 10 forego a penny
II is not a real loss, but a mere paper
loss, n the French were counting on
getting twice as much in repsrations
as there is any possibility OF their
really getting.
Another development Of the day was
the very strong insistenee OF leaders
in the Senate that in planning. FOR the
relief Of the European situation this
government should not make any po'
litical commitments whatever. Senti-
ment on Capitol Hill Is very strong
against any cancellation Of the debts
Of Europe 70 this country, which situ-
alton Is we'll understood By the Presi-
dent and State Department.

which NJ. Tehitcherin, the Russian For

tions during a heated debate with Lord
Curzon this afternoon. In n session de-
voted 10 the discussion OF plans for
control Of the Turkish Straits.
"The United States, Germany and
Russia do not recognize the league
said Tchitcherin. 1.-THE league Is not
even able 70 control a single Polish
general In wilma. II Is unable 20 ac-
eomplish anything In the Lithuanian
dispute. What good arc the guarantees
OF such an organization
Tchitcherin said the Allied proposals
for the regulation Of the Straits were
directed against Rnssia, and put a
premium on navalism and militerism.
Tchitchern Sees Allied Plots
These proposals. he added, ERE de-
signed 10 separate Turkey and Russia.
II is an Allied scheme which offers
fallseious protection 10 Turkey but
grants passage Of the Straits 70 war
ships, which would expose Russ los

forces Russia 10 arm and the guaran-
ties are completely ihusory for TUT

Both ". Tehitcherin and Tsmet Pashs
offered new suggestions concerning con-
troll Of the Straits. Tsmet was mild and
accepted In principle most Of the pro.
posals made BY the Allied powers, but
I
demanded that the Russian proposals
be considered AZ length in the sub
commission along with the new Turkish
proposals.
Lord CurIon denied this request, say
ing Il was impossible 20 continue the
deliberations indefinitely. He asserted
that concessions had been made 20 the
Russians by providing In the Allied
proposals that no feet shall be ad-
mitted 10 the Black Sea which Is
stronger than tho strongest navy pos
s,ssed by any Black Sea power.

OF LEGAL SUIT PAPERS

The White House correspondents
had a thrill yesterday.
A deputy United States marshal,
with an armful OF processes from
Virginia, Iowa, Illinois and other

at the White House where Jewell
was comforting with the President.
He had never seen Jewell.
When the strike leader emerged
from the White House he jumped
into an auto and sped away. The
correspondents also began to trickle
away. The perplexed marshal felt
his quarry slipping away, but he did
not know what Jewell looked like.
Finally he took a chance. He
showed the papers into the hands
OF correspondent of New York
paper, but the correspondent refused
to be served.
Here take 'em any way" said
the deputy and rushed of. leaving
