FRENCH TO ENFORCE
PAYMENT OF DEBTS OWED

Paris, Aug 5.-The French Gov
eminent today ordered into effect
the penalties against Germany for
failure TO pay in full the install
ments Of the pre-war debts 10
French citizens.
The penalties concern German
properties sequestrated in France
Certain payments that were being
made Co Germany on account Of war
losses are suspended in Alsace and
Lorraine as are also the indemnities
under the arbitration agreements
res he'd between France and Ger
mauy in August and September,
1927.
No military action is involved.
The first Of he French measures
consists Of the immediate suspension
OF all payments to German nation
ais for debts contracted with French
men before the war. both in France
ard IN Algace Lorraine The Off
GERS IN Paris and Strasbourg whi0h
were set up 70 liquidate these debts
were notified 10 cease functioning
at once and 70 pay no more German
claims until further orders from the
Premier
The initial measures also include
the suspension Of all further pay.
ments 90 Germans for German prop
erty sequested in France. This prop
erty includes estates. villas, art col,
lectiOns, etc.
The agreement reached al Baden
Baden under which Germans were
being compensated for the house
furnishing, stocks, bonds and cash
left in Alsace and Lorraine is also
suspended.
II was explained at the Foreign
Office that these first measures TAX
en- are not penalties IN the strictesi
sense Of the word, but merely action
to safeguard the French Interests
which have been jeopardized by the
Germans refusing to pay.
II Belgium and Great Britain as
has been indicated, desire 10 foregn
payments from Germany on the pri-
vate debts due their nationals this
will have no effect on the French
position, IT was said.
The German note asked the
French Government 20 reserve its
decision until the subject was dis
cussed at the coming London meet
ing of the allied heads Of govern
ments, in view Of the fact that both
Belgium and Great Britain were
willing TO consider the debt question
in connection with the moratorium
isnue. The French Premier takes
the view that payments on pre-war
debts is a matter for German bust
ness men who are obviously pros
porous and that it cannot be coupled
with German governmental finances.
