Henri Cheron. French delegate. gave
a great number of figures which. he
held. proved that Great Britain was
getting more out of the Young plan
than the Dawes plan.
Chancellor Snowden expressed SUR
prise at discussion OF the repsrations
sums, since the morning waS to have
been devoted to the question of de-
liveries in kind He said that he would
refute every figure and every statement
the French minister made. but that he
could not wait much longer for action
on his resolution regarding the revision
Of the Young plan. He didn't want to
remain Indefinitely In The Hague.

The mornings session opened with
the Rumanian delegates iIing their
grievances against the reparations Ru-
Graham set fourth Great Britain's po-
sition with regard to the economic
consequences of deliveries in kind on
the reparsti0ns account. He attributed
to that considerable part of the I'M
employment in Great Britain. He also
complained Of the effect Of tariff bar
riers on British trade and that circum-
stances had facilitated the access OF
other nations TO markets built st Brit
1sh expense.
Mr.. Graham was less catekoric than
Chancellor Snow6en. He left 4 way
out Of the position taken by saying that
the British WOULD oppose any sort OF
deliveries in kind and would In any
case insist that they be limited to
very short duration.
M. Cheron replied. recalling the
fact that the deliveries IN kind we're
much reduced from the Dawes plan ~
the outset and that they run on
downward sliding scale to end entirely
in 10 years. He thought this ought to
satisfy the British. The French finance
minister also produced figures to show
that Great Britain's part in the Young
annuities at the beginning was greater
than under the Dawes plan and that
the payments exceeded Great Britains
0utpayments.
Chancellor snowden took exception to
M. Cherons speech. which he said was
out of order since the morning was to
be devoted to discussion Of deliveries in
kind. He would reply only to certain
points: First to deny that Crest Brit
aims share In reparations under the
Young plan was not considerably less
than under the Dawes plan.
Hits Interpretations.
Referring to i reference made by the
French delegate to the Bolfour note. he
said he hoped he would not be con-
sidefed discourteotis, but that m. Cher
on's interpretations of the Balfour note
is rather grotesQue to any one who un-
derstands its fun character"
The chancellor declared that former
Premier Poincare had promised Wins
ton Churchill, former British chancellor
of the exchequer, that Spa percentages
would not be disturbed and added: The
honor of at least one country Is involved
In the matter"
The feeling of pessinisrn which had
prevailed Yesterday had been somewhat
less this morning by news OF French
efforts to frld some way Of satisfying the
British on the question Of deliveries in
