EXPERTS WORN OUT
TRYING TO SATISFY
DEMAND OF British
Two Sets Of Figures Do Not
Agree; Snowden Is Up
held by Exchequer

The Hague, Aug. 20.-(AP)-The
reparations experts; who worked un-
til after midnight in an effort to rec
oncile the conflicting estimates Of
the yield in money of the four r-power
offer to Great Britain were hard At
work on their labors again today.
What has developed thus far in
dicates there will be two reports on
this problem. The experts Of the four
powers will support the contention
Of France, Italy, Belgium, and ia
pan that they offered so per cent
at least Of the amount demanded by
Philip Snowden, British chancellor
Of the exchequer.
The British treasury men, on the
other hand, will uphold the chancel-
lor's claim that the offer amounted
to no more than from 20 to 80 per
cent Of what he demanded.
All Of the experts are frankly
worn out by their mission. Premier
BRAND Of France has made all arr
rangements to 60 home Saturday be-
fore leaving the league Of nations
assembly while Arthur Henderson,
the British foreign minister, must
leave soon in order to prepare for
the league meeting.
It is now accepted as practically
certain that whatever happens to
the reparations conferences, the num-
Der Of troops occupying the Rhine
land will be reduced before Christ
mas from about 62,8O0 to $500
through the withdrawal Of the Brit
tsh contingent. Tho strength Of
the different occupying forces is
now given Is: French, $4,000; Brit
ish, 5000; and Belgians, $500.
