WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 26.- Groundwork for a sweeping read justment of German reparations and Allied war debt payments to the United States was laid during the conferences which were con- cluded here Sunday between Presi- dent Hoover and French Premier Pierre Laval.
 Germany is expected to shortly take the initiative by asking re- lief from the enormous reparation burden.
 France is expected to cooperate in reexamining Germany's ability to pay and radical reductions in payments are considered inevitable.
 The United States is ready in turn to do its share as its con- tribution to world stability with regard to the payment of war debts owed by the allies to this country, this being based on pay ment of separations by Germany to the Allies.
 Discussions betwee n President Hoover and Premier Laval pro- duced an agreement for Franco American unity of action to pro- tect fully their present monetary systems based on the gold standard and to increase stability of inter national exchange, also to unlock for world recovery every possible reservoir of frozen assets.
