ALLIES REPLY DEPENDS
 ON ACTION OF GERMANY
A Showing Of Good Will 10 Meet Obli- gations Win Result in Modify
 ing. Occupation.
By The Associated Press.

By The Associated Press.
 Paris. Jan. 10--The reply of France and Belgium to Germanys memoran- dun requesting discussion of points growing out of the occupation of the Ruhr and the Rhineland will be based on the general principle that notifications in the occupation regime and tho exploitation of the pledges seized will depend entirely upon the disposition of the German government respecting the execution of the reparation clauses of the treaty of Versailess, it is forecast.
 A showing of good will by Germany to meet her obligations and a real effort to put herself in a position 10 do so will justify discussion of modifi- cations in the regime, 1t is felt, but until such good will and effort have become apparent the allies can give up nothing they have gained by going into the Ruhr.
 The position here outlined is the gium, it is said in the best informed quarters
 The Belgian draft of the reply is still being studied at the French for- eiRn office and views are being ex- changed with Brussels with the ob- iect of making the two answers as nearly identical as possible. A full accord already has been reached on the essentials, it was said. and the re- plies will probably be ready for de- livery to the Germans tomorrow or Saturday.

caused, he again went home and
sent William to stop the search
and claim his clothing.
