 Paris, Jan. 6.--Plans for an inter- allied debt conference at Brussels next March. to which the United States probably would be invited to send a delegate, are declared to have been formulated by Winston Churchill, British chancellor of the exchequer, who Is due to arrive here this evening at the head of the Brit ish delegation to the conference of allied finance minister.
 MT. Churchill, it is said, will pre- sent his proposal to the allies for a conference during private converse tions with other heads of delega- tions. He already has an appoint ment with M. Clementel, French minister of finance, for tomorrow to discuss, 1t is understood, the general subject of debts. It is believed that the British chancellor will undoubt- edly go over plans for the proposed conference at that time.
 French Delegation
 The French delegation to the coh- which opens here tomorrow, was finally named at the eleventh hour today just when all of the other delegations were on their way to Paris. Finance Minister Clementel will head the delegation represent ing France.
 MT. Seydoux, chief of the com mercial section of the foreign office, will be the principal aide of the finance minister. Other members of the delegation are NJ. Aron. one of the French experts who helped pre- pare the Dawes plan; Ferdinand Buisson, director of the cabinet min istry of finances and Pierre Deyris, an expert on the financial problems of peace who has been in close touch with all after-war interaIlied difficulties.
 Beigians Arrive
 Premier Theunis, with the Belgian delegation, was the first of the allied representatives to arrive in Paris today. M. Theunis was met by M. Clementel and the Belgian ambassa- dor. It is understood that Theunis will have a preliminary talk with members of the French delegation before the opening of the confer ence.
 Winston Churchill, British chan cellor of the exchequer, who is due to arrive here at four o'clock this afternoon, it understood to have an appointment with M. Clementel for tomorrow morning to talk over the debt question.
 Premier Theunis was accompanied by former Premier Delacroix and | Camille Gutt, Belgian member of the reparation commission.
 In accordance with a decision of the Belgian cabinet 1t is said that Premier TheunIs' delegation will re- sist any discussion of the Belgian priority claim to two billion five hundred million gold marks in separations, which, contrary to the views of the reparation experts, the Belgians contend has not been en- tire paid.
 The British viewpoint Is that there muh 1osiam5 aoinfif fiji fififoat priority and that, in any event, if the Belgians continue to collect on this claim. they cannot demand fin addi- ton their eight per cent reparatior payments as fixed in the Spa agree ment.
 Will Await Action
 The Belgian delegation will await action by the creditors as to wal debts, it is said. If the British wan to talk of these debts, the Belgians as debtors. will discuss them. Bu the. Belgian representatives feel tha the whole debt question should b' discussed at a special conference anc that it is practically impossible tt liouidate the European war debt' without coming to some sore of al arrangement with the United States
 Mir. Churchill is now credited herr with the intention of raising the deb question in the conference. Hi reason, 1t is reported, is that thi matter is so intimately linked will he settlement of other questions tha a satisfactory result Of the confer ence will be difficult to obtain If th' debts are excluded. It is believed however, that if the question is dis cussed it will be at special meeting of the European delegations inter ested. and on purely Europeal aspects a the problem. since tn American delegation has been in structed to abstain from any confer ence discussion on interallied debts
