EXPERTS ACHIEVE
 NO REAL RESULTS
Long Session at Paris Gets Nowhere on Preparations
Paris, April g Gp-While the Ger

Paris, April g Lp-While the Ger. mans are holding fast to their DO. sitions since the latest offer made yesterday. the reparation experts oi the creditor nations are now trying 10 persuade one another to make the necessary concessions in an effort tc meet the Germans half way.
 A long session Of the allied rep resentatiyes yesterday appeared tc have yielded no positive results and the experts vent into conference again today in the question of whc was to scale down claims 10 make al agreement possible
 The British are understood tc have scrapped the Ralfour note by which they stated they would talk no more German reparauons than the amount needed 10 cover their war debts. and 70 be now demand ing their full share of reparati0ns under the Spa percentages agreed upon immediately after the close of the war. At the same time they are said 10 have included the proyiso that they are willing to abandon part of the sums paid on their debt over and above the amounts reCeiv- ed from Germany with the under standing that il benefit Germany alone and not be applied 10 reduc- ton Of the war debts owed them by the other allied powers.
 small Creditors Balk
 The smaller creditors are under stood 10 have taken the position that the principal creditors ought 10 make the necessary sacrifice 10 sat lsty the Germans Both Italy and Belgium take the position that their demands cannot be scaled down. The French attitude is that they already have abandoned half their claim 70 separations for the reconstruction ot devastated regions and pensions which total S6,099. .000,UQ0 and that until the other creditors make an equal sacrifice they are unable to so further.
 The British attitude is interpret ed here as bearing indirectly on the war debts 10 the United States. The insistence on full payments of what IS owed them by the allies, irrespeC- tive ot what amount Britain receives from Germany on reparations. is taken 10 mean that any concessions 10 her allies depend or concessions from the United States.
 The experts Of the creditor nations were in session this afternoon and it was proba ble they would confer with Owen D. Young. the chairman, later. IL Was hoped that from these two conversations some advance might be made to meet the German offer.
