 Paris, July H. (UP) = The Lausanne agreement to end rep arations depends upon reduction of war debts by the United States. Premier Edouard Herriot said when he returned from the con- ference.
 ''In case the United States does not agree to debt reduction, France will remain in her previous posi- tion,n. the premier said.
 That means that the entire rep arations problem would have to be gone over again on the basis established by the Hoover mora torium.
 The cabinet heard Herriot's re- port today and unanimously ap- proved his accomplishments at Lausanne, particularly the gentle mans agreement" regarding re- duction of war debts.
 That was the extent of our en- gagement at Lausanne" Herrfot continued. "Everything else is subordinate to the French parlia- ment's vote"
 The premier said that the inn portance of Franco British cord iality at Lausanne must not be overlooked. We worked in full agreement. The British and Americans were most happy at the reslt. cannot see anything to criticise in the accord"
 Herriot hoped that accusations that his government had signed away Frances sacred rights, separations payments from Ger many, would be offset by the ''gentleman's agreement" or safe- ty clause in the Lausanne treaty. which looks to debt reductions from Washington. Although the agreement does not specifically mention the United States or European war debts to America, it stiuplates that the Lausanne treaty must be ratified by the creditor powers and that this rati- fiacti0n :.will not be affected until a satisfactory agreement has been reached between them and their own creditors"
 If no such settlement Is reached, the gentleman's agreement said, "the legal position is that which existed before the Hoover mora torium."

 This governments official po- sition is that the only relief 1t is even willing to discuss is tempor- ary adjustment of current debt payments to "capacity opay." It does not want to discuss such ad- justments, at least publicly, until after the November elections Diplomatic circles here indicated the European powers would not make any overtures until that time.

CROWDS BLOCKED
 TO E. MOUNTAIN
Formal Opening of Munici= pal Golf Course Satur-
 day Proved Success
CHEERS FOR MAYOR

All roads led to East Mountain Saturday afternoon and many who made the trip on that day went over the ground yesterday, some being there at the peep of day waiting to take turn on the new golf grounds. Most people came in cars Saturday, but quite few managed to get there on foot, so that when Mayor Frank Hayes hit the first ball the entrance was crowded, and his honor was given a great hand. After this the visi- tors scattered over the vast terri tory and while the number was large they were not so noticeable as when they gathered at the main entrance.
 The city government was well represented, and for that matter. one could see men, women and children from different parts of the city, and many from other places, all loud in praise of the transformation that had taken place on the wooded. rocky ground which had remained in it's orig inal condition until the park de- partment took hold of it and con- yerted it into one of the finest golf courses in the state. Of course there is much to be done yet, but it was complete surprise to Wa terbury people who had not seen the place since they had gone over it as berry pickers to wit ness the transformation that had taken place since operations were commenced last year. Even some of the big real estate developers would not believe that so much could have been done in short time unless they had gone over the ground and satisfied themselves that what the papers had been publishing was true.
 Quite a few citizens who have lived all their lives in Waterbury never were out there before and when they stood on the high eleva- tion and viewed the country as far as they could see, they could not help saying that the park de- partment had selected an ideal site for the city's recreation field The weather conditions were ideal for the official opening and the management must have felt pleased at the interest taken in the result of their labors by citi- zens in all walks of life. Now that the city is well supplied with parks, playgrounds and golf course, there is no need of leaving Waterbury to take part in legiti- mate exercises.

Brussels = GU. P.) - Professor Piccard, noted Stratospherian, will attempt to track cosmic rays in the upper regions of the earth's en- yelope in an effort to solve the mys- teries that lie within.
 These rays are believed to per- wade all space and also are sup. posed to be the cause of several phenomena which thus far have evnded every explanation. They are the most powerful rays known to science. As they exist in the stra- tosphere. Professor Plccard be- iieves them to be less subject to electrical and magnetic disturb- nnces.

France Asserts The United States Must
 Reduce War Debts
If She Does Not France Cannot Stand By Lausanne Treaty-The United States Will Not Do It Say Officials

States are due December 15.
 The coming election appears to be a controlling factor in the ad- ministration's present attitude on initely opposed to any reduction. the debt question. Congress is def
 Some observers believe the American attitude might later be- come more lenient. especially If the former allies should follow up their surrender of separations with substantial arms reduction.
 A number of officials held 1t unlikely that German separations ever would be resumed at present rates even though the United States refused to make any debt concessions.
 According to the Lausanne pact and the accompanying gentle mans agreegent," reparations would revert to the scale set in the Young plan if the United States declined to reduce the war debts. But these officials contended it would be politically impossible for the reparations-receiving coun- tries to persuade Germany to re- sume Young plan payments. One official termed the gentle mems agreement" merely a polit- ical expedient to protect Premier Herriot of France from criticism on the ground that he had sur rendered separations without get ting anything in return. But it was conceded that the French parlia- ment is not likely to ratify the Lausanne pact unless the United States makes concessions. So the Lausanne agreement may not be- Icome effective for long time. War debts owned the United l, States amount to about $11,OOO..
 100000, contracted chiefly after the armistice. Reduction on the
 basis of the separations reduction
 would cut them to about $2,00O,- 000 900.
