FRENCH AGREE
WITH BELG|ANS
On Essential Points in British
Note Concerning German
ReparationS Problem

PARIS, July 26.-(By The Asso-
ciated Press 1.-The French and Bel
gian governments have reached an
entire agreement on all the essen
tial points representing the British
note, it was announced today. 1t
was not made known whether there
will be a joint or separate reply.
The French reply will not be
ready until the beginning of next
week, but Premier Poincare is un-
derstood to have in mind the fact
that the British parliament is to
adjourn August 3, and he is expect
ed to submit his governments an
swer before that date. While the
parliament has nothing to do di-
rectly with this stage of the nego'
tiations yet it is thought here that
Prime Minister Baldwin might like
to say something to the House of
Commons on the subject before the
summer recess.
The negotiations prior to the sub
mission of the proposed collective
allied note to the German govern
ment in response 10 it's reparation
memorandum will hardly be COM
pleted with the submission of the
french and Belgian replies to the
British proposal, according to the
view taken here, because it is COO
sidered that some points will re-
ouire further discussion with the
British foreign office. Therefore
there is a strong desire that every
detail of the negotiations remain
secret so that the German govern
ment may have no opportunity to
embarrass the Franco-Belgian-
British discussion.
Much of the negotiation between
Brussels and Paris has been con-
Quoted by telephone, and the dinn-r
hour has so far proved to be the time
when most of the talking had to be
done. While entertaining large
party one evening recently NJ. Her
bette, the French ambassador at
Brussels, was called no less than
four times on the phone by the
Quay D'Orsay, leaving his guests TO
wonder what crisis might have
arisen.

CRUISER AT CAPE MAY

CAPE MAY. July 2s.-The cabin
crusier Charlotte B. was brought
ashore today by United States Gus
toms officials who picked her UP
eleven miles south of Atlantic City
and nearly 20 miles off shore. The

freighter and had aboard about
$4,000 worth of whiskey.
The vessel was conveyed to Cape
May by the coast guard cutter Kick
apoo. An investigation is being made
to determine the ownership of the
cruiser, the government officers sus-
pecting that it had been stolen. The
agents communicated with the At
lantic City police regarding the own
ership.

In Comn1ete Accord

BRUSSELS, July 26 (By The Asso-
ciated Press) The draft of the
Belgian reply to the British note on
reparations, which was sent to Paris
yesterday. is in complete accord with
the French views, according to the
most reliable information obtainable.
1t holds, it is said, that the occupa-
ton of the Ruhr must be maintained
so long as Germany has not paid the
reparation due.
AS to an international commission
to fix Germany's capacity to pay, the
note is understood to express pref
erence for American exports rather
than those of European neutrals.
DUESSELDORF, July 26 (By The
Associated Press)-The frontier sep
arating the Ruhr valley from the
rest of Germany was opened at mid
night.
No official reports as to the re-
sumption of traffic had been re-
ceived at French headquarters here
up to noon, but unofficial news was
to the effect that thousands of Ger
mans were passing in and out of
the occupied region, making haste
to transact urgent business. They
were anxious to accomplish all pos
sible during the present opportunity
because of reports that the frontier
would be closed again in a few
days.

Shunting Waves of
Bothersome Neiphbor

The owner Of a receiving set was
bothered by a neighbor who broad
cast on 20 meters, but owing tt
close proximity, would overlap $50
meter waves. A solution of the mat,
ter was worked out, as shown on dia-
gram.
The principle Is to shunt him out.
Take for example a 800 meter broad
cast Everything is going along
beautifully, when buzz-buzz, etc.,
comes in to spoil 1t all. He Is sending
on 20 meter wave length, but, due
to close proximity, he oyerlaps the
length.
