T RANGE MUST
REVISE DEBT
OFFER
American Commissioners
Reject Settlement in
Present Form.

WASHINGTON, April 26.-R)--
France must revise lis new offer for
settlement of its war debt to this
country, the American Debt Commits
sion decided today.
The decision was reached at the
second meeting of the American Com.
mission to study the proposal put for
ward last week by French Ambassa-
dor Berenger. Secretary Mellon will
confer with the ambassador before
negotiations are resumed.
Although France will be asked 10
modify its offer it was emphasized 10
day by the American Commission that
the lateSt discussions have not been.
terminated.
One of the principal bitches is how
much France shall pay at the outset.
Mr.. Berengcr proposed initial pay
ment of S25,O00,000 annually but the
commission is understood to desire
higher first payments.
The commission hopes to work out
an agreement on a trading basis with
out formally submitting counter pro-
posal pending submission by the
French ambassador of new offer.
The negotiations do not depend on
the controversial safety clause which
would relieve France of its debt re-
sponsibilities in the event of failure Of
Germany to meet its reparation pay
ments.
The American Debt Commission has
expressed itself firmly against this
and Ambassador Berenger is not ex.
pected TO insist on such a guarantee.
