 Rome. Jan. 9. - Signs were not wanting today that the AventIne op. position to the Fascist, despite its action yesterday fin declaring for continued absentation from parlia- mentary participation, might after all put in an appearance in the chamber when that body meets next Monday
 Both the Giornale D'Italia and the Sereno, two of the leading opposition newspapers, reflect the apparently growing idea that the opposition will remain sterile so long as 1t limits itself to written protests such as the long one issued yesterday without any tangible action to confront the government with its accusations The Serene declares the retreat of the Aventine opposition has produc- ed the desired effect and that the time now has come for action; that the country must have placed before 1t the alternative of facism or anti facism, with the electors passing judgment.
 To bring this about. de clares the newspaper, the opposition must re- enter the chamber.
 This statement, which is believed Ito have been authorized by the op- position leaders. Is taken to mean not only the return of the Aventine absentees to parliamentary work but the determination of the opposition to fight desperately in the next gen. eral elections. Doubts now are ex- pressed In opposition quarters, how ever, as to the possibility of holding the elections before next fall.
 Another indication that the ab- sentees are planning to reenter the chamber Is seen in an urgent call from their leaders to be in Rome Monday without fail and to remain on hand subsequently,. This Is in- Iterpreted as meaning that no decis- ion has yet been reached as to whether the entrance of the Aven- tine members into the chamber should take place Monday or later at the moment considered most op- portune to produce the desired ef- feet.

ington, while Finance Minister Glenn entel of France was in lengthy and serious consultation with Premier Herriot.
 These were the obvious develop ments Of the first day in which the lid was supposed to have been nailed down tight on the proceedings of the financial conference. The interpre- tation of the suddenly-expressed de- sire for secrecy and the fact that the principal delegations were consulting their governments Is that the nego- tiations have reached the point where decisions of moment must be taken.
 There is tendency in French political circles to attribute the sil- ence of the negotiators to the desire of the Grench government to keep ammunition from the opposition press. The fact that 1t was M. Clementel who asked for secrecy is much commented upon, and is con- strued by the opposition as meaning the French are once more on the point of giving way on some of the leading questions in conflict.
 Prominent delegates declined today to indicate what the program was for the immediate doings of the con- forces. This increased the mystery surrounding the negotiations and accentuated the note of perssimism which has developed in political cir cles despite the optimistic notes giv- en out yesterday by the heads of the delegations.
 In the afternoon, Premier Theunis of Belgium went into conference with MT. Churchill and M. Clementel prepared to sacrifice reasonable part of the Belgian prlority~on Ger man reparatiofs. The Belgian of- ficial view, 1t is said, is that Belgium alone of all the allies has had some- thing real out of reparations and Is willing to have two of itas eight per cent of these repearations turned back to the allies for the benefit of either the United States or the small powers.
