Omitted Press Staff Correspondent,
PARIS, Aug. 9.Despite Of
ficial denials the morning news
papers today persist in state
ments that the return Of Pre-
mier Herriot from the London
conference is due to divergen-
cies between the Premier and
General Nollet, his minister Of
war, regarding security of
France after adoption of the
plan for evacuation of the
Ruhr.
Herriot, according to the news
papers, denies unconditional accep-
tance of the proposal Of Prime
Minister Macdonald of Great Brit
ain that France and Belgium eva
cuate the Ruhr at once following
Germany's acceptance of the Dawes
program as 4 basis for settlement
of the reparations question.
The French. Premier is unwilling,
however, to, sign any agreement un-
less the entire cabinet uphOlds him.
Spoils Vacation
Resignation of General NOllet is
forshadowed.
President Doumergue will pre-
side at a special cabinet meeting to-
night at which Herriot will render
his report regarding the progress
Of the London conference.
The premier's hurried visit is up
setting many pl1ns. President DOu-
mergue's vacation party at Ram
bouillet Forest is broken up, and
the members of his cabinet being
forced to cancel all gements
and hasten to Paris. 1t had beG~
intended to hold tonight s meeting,
which is of-the utmost Importance,
at Rambouilet Sunday morning.
This, however, was found to be i'm
possible as sRastaffari, regent of
Abyssinia, had been invited there
for an official farewell luncheon
before returning to his own coun-
try. The president has decided to
stay up all night if necessary to
avoid disappointing the Abyssinian
prince.
1t is reported that Premier Her
riot will explain the general situa;
tiOn Sunday to the party leaders,
preliminary to the full report on
the conference, which he will rem !
der to the chamber August 20.
LONDON, Aug. 9-There is a
lnll in the reparations conference
over the weekend. -,,aS.i
Differs Radically
Premier Mae Donald has gone to
the r seaside at eastbourne. One
German representative has left for
Berlin by airplane. Premier Her
riot is on his way to Paris for the
purpose of disentangling and cla-
rifying the French position on the
most vital phase of the conference,
namely military evacuation of the
Ruhr. Minister of War Nollet is
reported to differ radically
the French premier on this poIn.,
the former opposing evacuation.
BERLIN Aug. 9.--Business Head
ers in Germany who are not poll
tically prejudiced manifest fear
that the London arrangements re,
garding the ..transfer problem /
will react badly ON Germany.
1t is argued that the disposition
to give extended rights with re-
gard to gold notes in the bank, nm
limited demands for ldeliveres in
kind annually, have altered the
Dawes plan and exposed the Ger
mans to the danger of new infla-
tiOn. 1t
Erich Dombrowski, probably the +
best German political correspondent
who is known abroad as Johannes
Fisehart, writes in the Tageblat:
ave must have security that the
deliveries in kind will not exceed
the peace treaty provisions. In any
event, the government must refuse
10 take over the responsibility for /,
,uo IN M aainU deliveries In kind. - ~
