FRANCE CONDEMNS REPUDIATION IF WAR
 DEBTS BY BRUEN!NG

PARIS, Jan 12 (F) - Chancellor H. Bruening's announcement that Germany was unable to pay her war debts, was answered by con- demnatoTy editorials and seni-of- ficial statements, asserting that France might refuse future finan- cial aid to Germany and bring pressure in other capitals to render Germany financially helpless
 The French government also might retaliate by invoking econ omic and military sanctions as pro- yided by the Versailles Treaty, the Young Plan and the Hague Agree ment and might even occupy the Ruhr Valley, it was indicated.
 Although the French government was intensively aroused over Bruen- ing's declaration, it was pointed out that Germany has taken no of ficial action and a repudiation an- nouncement will probably be made by Germany as a move to improve her position at the Lausanne Rep aration Conference on January 25.
