The conditions are not very rosy.
last year the government ran
over three billions in the hole. If
something is not done to prevent
it, they viii run another LAO mil
lions in the hole this year, and if
the foreign countries refuse to pay
their war debt it will be that much
worse. So Hoover gave congress

should be done.
The beer he did not say any
thing about, but the one cent GASP

the wages of the government en-
ployes should be cut IL per cent.
The compensation and pensions to
veterans should be slashed. And

BY the Associated Press.
The British cabinet has reaffirmed its
contention that the proposed Lausanne
Reparations Conference is imperative,
particularly in view Of the German posi-
tion that she no longer can meet rep
arations payments. Today's newspapers
indicated that the entire press supports
the government.
In France the newspapers were be-
hind the French government, support
ing the contention of Finance Minister
Flandin that If such statements Of
bankruptcy as that made by Chancellor
Bruening of Germany last week are to
precede the Lausanne conference, then
the conference is useless. Some of the
editorials raised the old threat Of re-
occupation Of the Ruhr.
The Bruening declaration sent Ger
man bonds down a couple OF points on
the London Stock Exchange. In Berlin
the gap between the government and
the Nationalist opposition has not been
closed and Adolf Hitler, the National
Socialist leader, has not announced his
decision regarding his support for a
plan to extend the term of President
Won Hindenburg.
The Board of Directors of the World

proval to the report Of the Young Plan

ity to continue the present reparations

BRITISH REAFFIRM POLICY.
Cabinet Considers Farley on Debts More
Urgent Than Ever.

LONDON, January IL (P.-The cab
met today reafirmed the British policy
that the proposed Lausanne reparations
conference is a more urgent necessity
than ever In view Of Chancellor Bruen-
ing's declaration last week that Ger
many's ability to continue reparations
payments is at an end.
All of Germany's creditor nations,
with the exception of France, have ac-
cepted Prime Minister MacDonald's In
vitation to open the Lausanne meeting
on January Is, it was said, and tse
French are considered to have given
their tacit agreement.
Reconstruction of the French cabinet

but 1t is not thought there is any like

threat implied by its finance minister,
Pierre Flandin, when he said that in
view of Chancellor Bruening's declara-
ton the Lausanne conference is useless.
