BRITISH MAY BALK
]. AT WAR DEBT PLAN
Paris Delegation Calm, While
Opinion at Home Flares.
Statement Today.
Sv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, May 8-Private talks between
the reparation experts concerning the
proposal for settling the German repara-
tioIIs problem, made by owen d. Young,
went on today in a calm that con-
trasted Strikingly with the evaporation
shown in London dispatches over the
suggestions of the chief American dele
gate.
The British delegation was asked if
there was any prospect OF an ulti-
matum to Mr.. Young or Of sudden
break in the negotiations, as had been
intimated in press dispatches from
London.
"All that Is ridiculous. We are study
ing the question without excitement.
There may be something TO be said be-
fore the end OF the day" was the reply.
Get Youns's Explanation.
Mr.. Young's explanatory memorandum,
setting forth how he arrived at his fg-
ures and suggesting to the credito'. ma
tons that they change the perez 1'ages
in the partition of reparationS - suit
themselves. is now in the hands Of all
the delegations.
The text of the German conditions
on acceptance, which was promised for
today, is still being withheld. Accord
! ing to the best information, that text
may never see the light of day. There
seems to be feeling on the part of the
, German delegation that there Is no
reason for producing it.
/ 1t was declared this morning at Ger
man headquarters that the delegation
had never been asked for it. This DIES
not agree, however, with previous H.
formation from an equally reliable
source.
Rumors About Germans.
! It was reported in the Hobbies of the
/ Hotel George v, headquarters Of the
second Dawes committee. all yesterday
/ afternoon that the Germans were pre-
pairing a text of their reservations. 1t
was even reported at one time that the
text had been delivered.
In the evening some of the experts
declared that DR.. Hjaldmar Schacht,
chief German delegate, would bring for
ward his reservations today, but the
experts waited all this morning in vain.
DR.. Schacht did not appear at the hotel
and at the headquarters of the German
delegation 1t was said that the Germans
had expressed themselves on Mr..
1oungS proposals just as the oCner
experts had They supposed that when
all the delegations had taken their posi-
tionS some subcommittee would take up
the matter, which would then be
thrashed out in common.
The barometer of the conference
after many violent fluctuations indi-
Gated stormy weather early this after
noon and the attitude of some of the
delegations showed that trouble was
apprehended. The calm of the British
and the American was, however, some
what reaSsuring.
