PROGRESS MADE

London, Aug. 8.-(By the A. P.)--
Such progress has been made in ad-
justing the differences between the
Germans and allies over the program
for putting the Dawes reparation
plan in effect that there is still hope,
according to British spokesman, that
the international conference may
complete it's labors in day or two.
Several outstanding problems re-
main to be settled, however, and the
Americans who are optimistic, as are
most of the delegates, see small
chance of leaving London before the
middle of next week.
The Germans do not conceal their
determination to accept no settle
ment not putting an end to the pre-
sence of French and Belgian troops
in the Ruhr which they still insist is
without the authority of the treaty
of Versailles.
The Germans have accepted moral
engagement to float q loan of 40.-
100000 pounds, thus fulfilling one of
the most important of the reparations
commissions requirements for opera
tion Of the Dawes plan, and also have
agreed to the entire allied program
for declaration of defaults.
