ReIterateS French Stand

PARIS. Oct 2s.-(By Associated Press)-An official communicate writ ten by Premier Poincare and made pubic at the foreign office this eve- ,rns reiIeIates the French govern
 ments determination to refuse to agree to any reduction of the German debt as fixed by the London confer- ence in May. 1921.
 The communiQue insists that a committee of experts organized with Tn the scope of tho reparation com mission to investigate Germany's thority to make any reduction in German debts. It is said 1t consider ca that such a committee will be practically a mere addition to the present staff of experts of the re- paration commission.
 Quoting the Versailles treaty. the communique says the Preparation commission itself has no bower to grant any reduction in reparations and vote of the nations interested
 The French government in it's re- ply to the British government con cerning the creation of committee of experts bases its authority uDon paragraph z. annex 9, to part of the treaty of Versailles, permitting the constitution of such Committees.
 This paragraph empowers the commission to nominate all function- arieS' agents ana employees necessary to the execution of its functions, to which are not necessarily chosen from the commission and to give such functionaries, agents and com mittees full powers and authority.
 Thus the reparation commission acting within the limits of its DOW CTS, may designate such experts, the help of which appears necessary in order to obtain the information 1t requires.
 Thus this in no way duplicates on the part of the commission any abandonment of it's powers, which 1t retains integrally; the information advice and recommendation 1t would receive such committee would have no other object that to enlighten 1t as in the case of the experts now em- ployed by the commission, which has the authority to increase their num- ber."
The Birmingham age-herald., 1923-10-29

France will not accept any reduction in Germany's reparations bill, offi- cials here believe that the French willingness to join in an expert board of inquiry Is 8 distinctly hopeful step.
 In his note to Lord Curzon, Hughes said he was willing that the board of inquiry should be attached to the separations commission as an ad visory body. He had never suggest ed that the experts should have final power, and so long as they are pure ly an advisory body this government does not regard the question of whether or not they shall be at tached to the reparations commission as of any importance.
 Poincare's statement that the Ger man debt must not be reduced sounds a discordant note. But officials here will decide their course by confiden- than by what the premier says at a public speech in dedicating 8 war monument.
 The United States is prepared to recognize the sensibilities of France. Of course, If Secretary Hughes be- comes convinced that an investiga- ton would be waste of time, so far as changing Frances position is concerned, he would drop the whole matter instantly. But officials here believe that France will join in the inquiry and will not seek to disre- gard the findings of the board, es- pecially if the United States and Great Britain throw their weight be- hind them.
 There Is reason to believe here that France Is willing to make some concessions-after the formality of Saving face" is over--to obtain the co o-operation of Great Britain and the United States again.
 She would rather have them with her than against her. and when she sees that she Is to be treated fairly 1t is probable that progress will be made. At least that is the hope here. President Coolidge took a decidedly optimistic view in his farewell letter to Lloyd George, published Sunday.

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S.-CBy Asso- ciated Press.)-Improved bond prices were recorded for the general list for the past week with the single excep- tion of foreign and domestic indus trial groups and all of the active United States government securities moved higher.
 New offerings for the week to- tailed $73,4o4,0Oo as compared with S99,O64,0O0 the previous week. The bulk of the new financing last week was by public utility corporations. All the issues met with ready sale and traders reported Crders for in- vestment bonds continued to come into the market in moderate volume.
 Buying the Liberty issues was un- derstood to have come largely from operations of the government sinking fund and for the account of the British government.

 "All these problems passed through my mind during the first stage of medi sation without my being able to solve them. Much has been made in England over my Sunday dis courses; but what daily contradictory and unless discourses would an in- ternational conference mean while you, my friends. still were waiting for stones and tiles to rebuild your homes?
 eff in truth, the British govern ment is not thinking of asking us to make Germany come and sit at the conference of which it speaks; if 1t has simply, like ourselves, a de- sire for obtaining the cooperation of the United States, it is easy for us to reach an understanding on the idea already considered at Paris, as at Washington, Brussels and Rome.

 Here the premier seemed to have reached the point he desired to em- phasize: We cannot" he said, "ac- cept that the commission be dis possessed of its functions or replaced by an organism in which our share Of Influence, already inferior to our interests, would be still further re- ducted. We have reached the limit of our concessions. We shall not go farther"
 M. Poincare began his speech by pointing out that he, unhappily, had proved himself right in advising eau tfon when the German government noisily announced the cessation of passive resistence and when he warned France that intrigues and evasions had not yet ended" He then denied that France had been in- strumental in arousing information al troubles in Germany.

 M. Poincare then dealt with Gar. many's war preparations in aviation ana other ways. saying France would not sacrifice her rights to repara- tlons any more than her claims to security. He defended the occupation or the Ruhr, saying that without that Germany today would bs abIs 10 refuse payments and continue to enrich herself through her factories using Ruhr coal. whereas 1t now was to her interest to pay her cred itors at the earliest possible time in order to hasten the evacuation oS the Ruhr. oi

HAMMERS NOT ASIN|HO[ESA[E TRADE' 'POOR AS PAINTED LARGEST IN YEARS
Retail Business Also g Per Cent Heavier Than That
 Of Year Ago

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.-Reports to the federal reserve bank covering business conditions during the last six weeks show that wholesale trade was the largest in three years; that retail trade increased per cent over year ago, although the seasonal in- crease over summer business was smaller than usual, and that produc- ton of basic commodities declined. Employment was maintained ut the high level of the last several months.
 While review by the board, made public today, showed a decline of per cent in production in the six weeks period and a reduction of 10 per cent from the peak reached in May, some commodities, including ce- ment and sugar meltings, were pro- duced in larger quantities than in the months immediately preceding.
 Building Contracts Increase.
 There was also an increase in con- tract awards for business and indus trial buildings. Due to the decrease building construction as whole, however, showed a reduction as com pared with preceding months. A sub- stantial reduction in the production of iron and steel also was revealed.
 Distribution of all classes of com modities by the railroads continued at high rate in September and early October. The board found that retail stocks were 13 per cent larger at the end of September than on the same date a year ago.
 The boards summary of price changes discloses that wholesale fuel quotations declined in September for the eighth successive month, and building materials and metals were also lower. Wholesale prices, at large, however, showed an increase of per cent, particularly noticeable increases being in clothing, foods and farm products.
 Farm Products Prices Rise.
 Prices of certain farm products continued to increase in the first three weeks of October, the board re- ports, adding that wheat and cotton quotations reached the highest point in the current year. Prices of hogs, however, showed a decline.
 The annual seasonal increase in bank credits began early in Septem- Der, and resulted, according to re- serve board records, in increasing tho loans by member banks in the lead ing cities by 5000, 900 between Sep tember 12 and October 10. This in- crease, the board says, reflected chiefly the renewed demand for com mercial loans which reached new high record for the year on Octo- Der 12.
 Money rates. however, showed an easier tendency and after September 15 commercial paper rates declined an average of about one-fourth of per cent.
