of richness. It is a guarantee Of all de-
poSits, French or foreign, made in
France. Its normal and desirable re-
distribution can only come after there
| is general return of confidence and
from needs which spring from this re-
turn of confidence
The slight improvement manifested
after the Lausanne accords came from
the hops Of the peoples that world
settlement would come. The improve
ment which showed itself cannot con-
tlnue II the next payment OF intergov-
ernmental debts is insisted upon.
1t should be noted that unless there
Is radical shift in the American COM
mercial balance with Europe, a balance
which Is today largely favorable to the
United States, these payments would
neceSsltate, because of progressive re-
ouction Of foreign revenues of debtor
countries, an increasing number of
operations soon to be ruinous for the
entire world-on the credit and eX-
,change markets.
The French government is unable to
believe that the American people would
find in the end that it is in their in
terest to have fulfilled an agreement
the strict application of which would
have as its effect the creation of more
chaos and misery in the world. The
transfers OF sums which do not CORE
Spond TO the exchanges are liable pro-
folIndly to throw out of balance inter-
national relations.
P0stpOnement asked.
1t is under the sway of these grave
rTeoccupations, cognizsnt of responsible
iti2s which weigh upon the great powers
with respect to the safeguarding of the
social and economic order that the
French government asked of the Fed
oral Government the 18th of November
last the postponement Of the payment
OF December IS
In asking it to re-examine its re-
quest in the light of the foregoing
considerations. it deems that it k full
filing duty not only national, but
international.
1t is fully conscious CT the role which
France is called upon BY circumstances
to play in Europe. 1t has no intention
of priding itself upon efforts it already
has made for restoration of economic
stability and resumption of business,
nor upon the conditions in which it
finds itself permitting cooperation
toward these ends in the future, but It
asks, apprehensively, how it can con-
tinue its efforts if the cooperation of
the United States, upon which it
thought it could count, fails to materi-
alize.
Such are the considerations which
lead the French government today to
renew through me to your eXcellency
its earnest and considered request to
examine again the application for sus-
pension OF the payment due Decem-
Der Is.
The reception which will be given
this request is awaited with confidence
by my government which realizes all
the consequences which the decision of
the President of the United States may
have for improving or making worse
the tragic situation resulting from the

chief need was an objective and sys-
tematic approach to the problem to be
solved
25. Allusion has been made in the
last paragraph to the difficulty of any
attempt to meet the payment December
Is by transfer across exchange. 1t has
been the object of his majesty's gov
ernment to take all possible steps to
mitigate fluctuations in the relative
value of sterling and gold currencies.
To this end having in the first place
repaid in full large temporary credits
borrowed in connection with the finan-
cial crisis of the preceding year. they
have acquired certain reserves in gold
and in foreign exchange, but though
these reserves are adequate for the pur-
pose for which they are designed. they
were not intended and would not suffice
to cover as well the payment of $685.,
100000 due on December Is. The ex-
change difficulty would remain even if
the device were adopted of payment in
sterling to a blocked account; for the
existence of large sum awaiting trans
fer would affect the market almost as
seriously as an actual purchase of cx-
change. TheAonly remaining alternative

Saturday and lost heart-breaking

sealed for six inning. In the seventh
our infield flunked, and booted a
couple of errors that allowed Har-

there went the game. Your Harring-

the box score. It's bad enough for us
to think about, and ust too bad to

On Monday, July 4, we had two
games scheduled with Dover, but
the morning game was washed out.
By hard and persistent work, we got
the ground in a passable condition
in time to play one game late in the
afternoon, and it was the best play
ed game that we have had this sea-
son. 1t was pitcher battle from
start to finish. With men on bases,
Postles was a past master. In the
ninth Dover filled the sacks, with
one out; then Jim showed his mettle
and retired the next two. 1t was
thrilling finish and the followers of
the team are in a happy frame of
mind. The score follows:

at third by Lee.
Frank Sigafoos went hitless, but drew
three walks and scored twice. One OF his
walks "batted in" a run, the bases being
filled at the time. Goldman strolled home
with a run in the seventh when pitcher
Lee committed balk. The young hurler
