Persons seeking work, II -Seise

a month, and many of the bureaus de-
nand as high as 20 and 20 per cent
of the first months salary.
The law provides that no fee In eX-
cess of 81 shall be charged by an en-
nIovment agency, but a large num-
har of such bureaus have been found
which have been charging 10 or Il
times the lawful rate.
One bureau, which caters to secfe-
tarial and stenographic positions, De
manded 10 per cent for temporary

PACT
To- Be SOUNDED

PARIS, Jan. 2s.-(By The Assoi-
ated P~ressl-The Franch government
has received from Berlin reliable in
formation tending TO indicate that
the German government will within
a day or two make a move to feel
out both France and Belgium on
the qestion OF a security pact among
the three powers.
There have been limitations from
Berlin recently that Germany was
preparing for such a step.
There is no precise indication as
to the form the German move will
take On the basis of official infor-
nation. however. the opinion OF the
foreign office Is that the Berlin
government Is paving the way for
a roundabout revision of the treaty
OF Versailles so as to get out from
under the deterrent influence of the
Franco.Polish alliance.
1t is anticipated that the offer
of the Germans to guarantee the
security OF the French and Belgium
frontiers will be made conditional
upon the immediate evacuation OF
the Colonge bridge head and the ear
ly liberation OF the entire Rhineland.
The French government, It is de-
clared. will in no case consider a
proposition that would involve the
abandonment of Poland to the mer.
else of Germany and its first reply
will probably be that France prefers
the Geneva protocol for her security,
