FUNDING HEARINGS
Czechoslovakia Commission and American Officials Hold Their First Meeting Today.

Washington, Oct. P)-Waiying preliminary or social ceremonies, debt commissions representing Czechoslovakia and the United States today began consideration of a fund ing arrangement for Czechoslovakia $ debt.
 Although the first formal meeting of the two groups was brief, it lasted sufficiently long for adoption of a plan Of procedure, which will permit of subcommittee conversations on the issues involved.
 In adopting that method the com mission had in view adjustments or differences as to tho amount of the debt. The American records sho" that the Czechoslovakians owe roughly s9l,000,oo0 plus accrued 1n- terest, making a total of $l1T697,- 900. Czechoslovakia' claim has been for a settlement based on debt of $S0,234,000 and interest accrued since the loans were made some five or six years ago
 Immediately after the formal ses- sion of the two commissions, experts began conversations on the point at issue. It has been stated that the Americans were willing, despite their insistence on a settlement of the full amount claimed, 10 include a pro vision for adjusting the differences in event further proof is forthcom- ing at a later time that they had de- manded too much.

Spirit Of Optimism as French
 and Germans Meet Together

Locarno, Switzerland. Oct. Rl- The first contract between the Ger man and French delegates in the security pact conference, which has as its purpose an endeavor to settle for all time the anomalous Situai1 brought about by the World war has created an optimistic feeling among the observers here.
 Seated with the French and tho other allied delegations Gustave Stresemann, the German foreign minister, and Chancellor Luther,
 were free to express themselves as they desired, and the spirit of fair play and of an apparent desire to reach an accord was manifest. AL
 most as quickly as they were ad- vanCed, number of articles of the proposed pact, which is designed to effect permanent peace in Europe were agreed to. At the suggestion of Austen Chamberlain, the British foreign secretary, the deliberations became friendly informal talks, in stead of being made up of set speeches and arguments.
 Unfortunately after the first ses- sion Dr. Stresemann was taken suddenly ill and this morning ses- sion had to be postponed while at first there were fears that his illness
 was connected with the reported plot against him. these subsided quickly when others of the German | delegation announced that pr. Stressemann was suffering from a throat affection and had some tenn
 perature.
 Although agreement was quickly
 arrived at on some articles of the
 draft pact, the thorny questions are
 yet to be dealt with. spokesmen for the Germans frankly say that 1 the serious questions at issue are
 yet on the horizon. It is considered
 to solve will be any attempt to reach an agreement which would permit | France to cross the Rhine in order 10 give aid to Poland.
 l Dr. Stresomann was considerably
 improved this morning, and a 1 spokesman for the German delega-
 tion announced that he would be
 able to attend session of the con-
 ference this afternoon.
