FRANCE AND RUSSIA
SPLIT OVER DEBTS
Bonds of Latter Give Paris
Serious ProbIem-Compro-
mise Fails.
By the Associated Press.


PARIS, June 3o.-Russian bonds
widely held in France constitute an
"interallied debt" problem for France
that is in many ways quite as serious
as the money owed to the United
States.
A joint Franco-Soviet commission Of
experts has been sitting for weeks
trying to find some compromise be-
tween the French, who wish to be
paid, and the Russians, who would
much prefer, not to pay their prede-
cessors' obligations.
These pre-war Russian bonds sold
in France amount to about 10000. .000,-
900 gold francs, on which Russia paid
no interest after the revolution. The
French government, however. paid the
coupons in Russias stead during the
last year of the war.
The French experts proposal, one OF
the plans eventually to be submitted
to a more formal commission, which
will try to negotiate a settlement, IS
that the, 16 900 900 900 be scaled down
to 10000, 900 900, and that there shall
be a 1O.year moratorium on payments,
although the interest shall accumulate
during that time. The interest from
1918 to 1926, when the moratorium
would begin, would be paid in French
paper francs instead of in gold.
This is not acceptable to the Rus
slams. They propose that the back in
terest should be cut from 1000, ,000,0 900
to 1000, 100000 francs because during
that interest period France and her
allies were trying to destroy the Soviet
revolutionary government.
In any case, they say, commercial
credits Of like amount must be given
by French banks when any payments
are made by the Soviets.
The seriousness of the problem lies
in the fact that there are several mil
lion small bondholders in France,
many of whom look at their unpaid
coupons and blame the French gov
ernment for not collecting for them.

Backing Engine

Head Before Shouing
Him-Injured.

Private Samuel T. Walters Of No.
26 Engine Company, while laying out
a hose line early today near 9th and
H streets, tripped over another hose,
falling directly in rear of his COM
pany's engine that was backing. The
wheel of the heavy apparatus, striking
his head, pushed him a distance of
approximately 80 feet before the en-
gine was stopped. the driver, Harry
Bickster, knowing nothing of the ac-
cident.
Walters, suffering from injuries to
his head, right hand and with one ear
almost severed. was taken to Casualty
Hospital and given first aid by Dr.
E. ]. Gurvich, later being turned
over to police surgeons.
The almost severed ear was sutured
in an effort to. save it, but surgeons
fear the operation will not be success
full. Walters did not lose conscious
ness. 1t was said at the hospital this
afternoon that the patients condition
was serious, although his recovery us
expected.

THRIFT AK FALTERS.
OVER CLERKS HERE.
List of Cuts in Federal Per-
sonnet Expected July ! Are
H.. Still Incomplete.

On the eve of the end of the fiscal
discussed large cuts in the Govern
ment personnel in Washington are
scheduled to become effective, the
Personnel Classification Board, the
agency designated by the President
to receive and pass upon all sepa-
rations from the service, is without
any idea of the number to be affected
by the scheduled reduction in force.
Any figure which would be given
out today on the total number slated
for release would be little more than
a guess, according to Guy f Allen,
chairman of the board.
Only a few of the bureaus and
divisions within the Government
service in Washington which must
cut down their working staffs be-
cause of decrease in appropriations
have sent in the lists of employees
whom they propose to eliminate from
the pay rolls. Others are holding up
their lists for various reasons, Mr..
Allen said, and will probably hold
them until several. days after the
new fiscal year. 1926. begins tomor-
row. complete tabulation of the
number of employees scheduled to
leave the Government service in
Washington, as of July /. will not
be available for 10 days.
Put Figure at 1856.
An unofficial check-upsof the num-
her already announced as scheduled to
go shows that not many more than
500, and possibly less, will be included
in the lists to be sent to the Per
sonnel Classification Board for review.
to- OF oh sc
up as the fiscal year 1926 begins: Two
hundred are slated to go from the
division Of loans and currency of the
Treasury, 189 are scheduled to go
from the adjusted compensation unit
of the Veterans Bureau, 81 will go
from the Interior Department in a
reorganization development, and 20
will go from the State Department
total of 4S6.
The personnel board has received
only scattered returns from those
bureaus which have announced their
intention of a personnel reduction,
and although some few may be added
by the Emergency Fleet Corporation
and other Government agencies, Off
cials of the board expect the total
reductions as of July l due to reduced
appropriations will not exceed 500.
Talk of a total of 5000 clerks being
give ntheir walking papers is looked
upon by board officials as a flight of
fancy. Even in the face of the limited
returns they have so far, they can
not visualize any such figure as that.
400 of Dry Force to Go.
The reductions to be effective to-
morrow will be augmented by a de-
crease in the force employed at the
prohibition unit of 400 beginning Au-
gust l. This decrease will be gradual
and will be spread over several weeks.
The Personnel Classification Board
is instructed, under the presidential
executive order Of June 4, to review
all cases of employees ordered dis
missed, checking on the credits al
lowed under classification. credits for
dependents and other claims the en-
ployes may have for retention in the
Government service. Five days is
allowed employees for appeal from the
order of separation, the appeal to be
made to the board.
