London conference asked for French
sacrifices while eliminating all dis
cussion of those areas within which
France might obtain compensating
concessions.
= See Curb on Action.
From the French point Of view they
were asked In London to agree that
it should be for Britain and America.
the latter acting unofticially through
the agents-general, to decide wheth-
er Germany were actually in default,
although neither country was inter-
ested in German reparations pay
ments and both would be in German
loan repayments; that even in event
!, of a decision that Germany was in de-
fault, there should be no allied ac-
ton beyond the Rhine-that is, in the
Ruhr-and that France should pledge
herself in advance against any inde-
pendent action, such as she had taken
in the Ruhr.
From the French point of view,
again, such concessions represented
the deliberate attempt of British
craftsmanship had been unable to
bring about, and thus tie French
hands and insure the restoration or
Germany economically without re-
gard to French rehabilitation. You
must see that at this point the de-
termining factor would be interna-
tional confidence, or lack of conf
dencc, and there does not exist as
between France and Great Britain
any such confidence as would be re-
quired to float such Il policy.
The British SO distrust France as
to believe that the French would
again invade Germany without re-
gard to the rights of British bond
holders If French political interests
seemed to require such an action. The
French believe that the. British
would close their eyes to German
evaslons of the Dawes program in
order to protect British bondh olders
and TO preserve British trade and
commerce. And both these convic-
tions go right back to the traditional
marked Anglo o-French relations for
more than four centuries.
Interests Are Different.
1t is patent, too that British and
French interests are totally different.
The rehabilitation of Germany is for

perity, and such German restoration
carries with it no political or military
peril. Therefore Britain Is ready to
lend Germany money in order to
bring about this restoration. But for
France the restoration of Germany
is at best a deadly risk, to which
France will consent only because 1t
is necessary detail to the payment
by Germany to France of the repara-
tions sums without which France Is
hopelessly bankrupt.
II France is not to get reparations
then, not only is she indifferent to the
question of German economic restora-
tion, since she will not benefit there
by, but politically she must prevent
1t because it constitutes a very great
menace to her, a menace only toler-
able If 1T is accompanied with the
reparations payments which will rem
der France solvent. But IL Germany
repays principal and interest on her
loans ard IN achieving economic
prosperity advantages Britain there

British Seek Control.
But quite obviously If Britain and
France cannot come to terms and
Germany does not accept those terms,
German economic restoration will not
take place. Frances fiscal collapse
may arrive and the recovery of Brit
ism trade will be postponed indefi-
nitely. And that is precisely why
British finance is undertaking to con-
troll the situation and coerce all
hands into accepting a solution salts

Looked to Guarantees.
Nor was there the smallest modi-
fication of the French attitude in the
matter of security and Of interallied
debts. On the contrary. as the mass
Of the French voters conceded that
the occupation of German territory
must not endure beyond the. time
whep such occupation contributed to
the collection of reparations. they
looked with more earnestness into the
matter of guarantees, and in the ma
ture of things looked with more e& :
peetation toward the British course.
Now it is manifest that in the
present temper Of Britain and in. the
state of mind of his immediate politi-
cal following, Macdonald cannot offer
France any hard and fast guarantee
based upon Il contract which might
be regarded as an alliance. The best
he can do is to find some way through
the league of nations of binding the
British government to come to the
support of any nation wilfully and
wantonly attacked, as France was in
the present Prime Minister of Britain
opposed the support of France in 1914.
Herriot has indicated that he Will
accept this method, but it Is not too
much to say that 1t leaves France
fairly cold and not a little anxious.

AS to the matter of the interallied
debts. every one wanted America ut
London, even if we were there un-
officially. but it was known in ad
vance that we would never attend any
conference where the question of
debts was on the agenda. Therefore
the British left this matter out and
the French had necessarily to accept
this omission, since they desired
American presence, but the double
omission of the questions of security
and debts made the conference, from
the French point of view, danger
ously restricted.
You could perhaps assume that the
French might consent TO substantial
sacrifices in the matter of the rep
arations-sacrifices, at least in con-
siderable part, like what were asked
of them in London-proyided they
were offered a British guarantee of
security against German attack and
a British scaling down or cancellation

Distruxt Hurts Farley.
The unfavorable circumstance is
the dominant distrust Of motives on
both sides of the channel: the hopeful
detail Is the fundamental good faith
which 1T seems to me underlies the
actions of both Herriot and Mac
Donald and the vital interest both
countries have in. arranging affairs.
Today Herriot is bound by an opposi-
tion in the French Parliament which
might easily become the majority II
he made concessions which seemed
TO lessen French chances of getting
reparations, and Macdonald Is con-
trolled by the advice Of financial Lon
don, which must furnish the monev.
and therefore reserves the right to
dictate the terms. All of which is
another way of saying that Herriot
and Macdonald are dominated ty
their own national sentiments, which
are based on very obvious and wholly
material interests.
But the present conflict Is material.
after all. Infamed national egos
have been pretty generally suppressed
both in Britain and France. and both
in Paris and in London 1t has become
fairly clear that neither France nor
Britain can have it's own way and
the situation, but compromise will
have to be marked by very great
sacrifices, and before they can make
these both Herriot and Macdonald
have got to prove the need before
their publics. So that, in my judg-
ment, the London conference will be
at best a step, perhaps a very short
step. at worst disappointment
rather than a final failure. Settle
ment now between Britain and France
will result from bargaining, and be
a patchwork, not a clear and definite
affair. Neither nation can have its
own way and both are coming to
perceive this fundamental fact.
Therein lies the ultimate hope of ad-
justment.

Money Is one Essential.

Money Is One Essential.
Now the immediate problem was
putting the Dawes plan into opera
ton, but to put it into operation it
was essential to get an international
loan for Germany. So far all coun-
trles. even Germany. were at one, and
1t was quite obvious that Germany
was willing to accept many onerous
and unpopular. provisions and condi-
ions in order that she might also lay
hands upon the loans and thu. esr>, e
from her own financial morass Every
one, Including. .the Germans. conceded
that the essential condition was
that Germany should get money
abroad, and in practice it could only
come from London and New York.

what would the situation be? The

reason for carrying out the contract
which he had signed-na mely, the
