NO MORE DELAY,
 IS FRENCH VIEW
Paris Thinks Debt ParleyS
 Should Start at Once

Paris, July 3 P)-The prevailing view in France is that negotiations for settlement of Frances debts 10 the United States and Great Britain should be initiated with tho least possible delaE At the same time 1t Is recognized that formulation of a plan at present is beset with diff cultics which will only be removed when the finances of the country are again placed on q sound basis.
 The ambassador in Washington having been instructed to inform tho American government that France ia disposed 10 send a commission for discussion of the question, tentative plans for the composition of this . body are already under way. Tho mission will leave at the end l of the summer, the view here being that no useful purpose could be sery- l cd by an earlier trip as it is known that the American debt funding commission is already occupied with several other European debtors.
 NJ. CaillauX, the finance minister, is not likely tO head the mission. al- though he would like 10 do so. The names of number of prominent tinaucicrs arc mentioned in his stead, 1monG them Robert Mason, acting head of the Credit Lyonnais.
 The government is fully alive to the fact that, with the interest piling up daily prompt consolidation of the debts is necessary, and it Is un- derstood Foreign Minister Briand will make this clear in acknowledg- ing the latest memorandum or debt "rcminder" receiving from the Brit iSh foreign secretary. 2
 If is also realized that speedy funding Is the only way 10 obtain favorable terms, In this connection tho Petit Parisiene says France is entitled to hope to obtain from America miNimum rate of two per cont, moratorium of several years and q time limit of 7o or S0 years in which to cXtingush the debt.
