WANT PAY IN FULL
Trance and Belgium Serve Notice on
Germany That They Are Not TO he
Put of on Promises.

ny The Associated Press.
Paris. May France and Belgium
have again served notice on Germany
that they intend the raparation bill
shall be paid in full and that there
will be no consideration OF any Ger
man proposal as long as passive re-
sistance In the Ruhr continues
Replying In a joint note TO the
German offer OF last week the Ruhr
allies point out that the sum of 3d.
600. 100000 gold marks represents less
than one-fourth OF the total which
both the reparation commission and
Germany recognized as the amount of
her debt.
France and Belgium advance no
proposals Of their own, restricting
their reply to categorical rejection
of the German terms.
The communication to Berlin char
acterizes the German offer as badly
yelled systematic revolt against the
treaty of Versailles" which. II It could
be considered, would result certainly
in the total and final destruction OF
the treaty In the necessity OF negotiat-
ing another and in the moral, econ
omic, political and military revenge OF
Germany"

visit to the Ruhr. Mr.. Scattergood
left Immediately for the United
