Increased Cash Transfers to
France Exceed Interest

BERLIN. September 23.--"Prophets
who year ago said that eventual
French stabiliZation would be made
with German help now bid fair to he
eight" according TO Prof. David
Friday. the American economist.
Prof Friday visited Berlin in
January and then predicted the Ger
man Industrial recovery with such
astonishing accuracy that he has
earned a reputation for almost un.
Canny knowledge. Now. after weeks
in Germany. he has received this
correspondent.
Much Nearer Solution.
"Stabilization of the French cur
rency is Europe's chief financial
problem" he said. 1T is nearer solu-
tion today than ever before. for the
world in the last six weeks has be
come convinced that Germany will
meet her reparations payments.
But GermanyS Importance for
Premier Poncare of France is not
alone in confidence that France can
reckon on regular payments from
Germany and construct a budget ac.
cordingly. In August the agent gen.
eral of reparations made the first
large cash transfer to the allies under
lIfe bdNSS pldn, Oh WHICH france re-
ceived about half, approximately
$4,000. 600
This cash was of the utmost i'm.
portance in maintaining the franc dur.
ing August. the possibility of which
experts generally had questioned. in
the face of the billion in paper. franc
payments, which must be met
But the franc held astonishingly
and the agents statement for Septem-
Der showed why the franc had not
fallen. There was a greater surprise
when early in September, the agent
general announced that Germany had
agreed TO increase the current reparta-
ton payment by $4,000, 900 of which
France will get about half or an addi-
tional billion and a quarter francs.
Her total reparations receipts for the
current year, therefore, will amount
at the current rate to 5000, 900, 900
francs. This year France will receive
about $15,000,000 month, nearly
twice the first years payments. In
other words, France will have from
Germany more than soc, 200, 900 francs
a month.
