"There is nothing lacking in it, only it list not alive." r "Jt is no secret," the premier as serted, "that the reparations com mission of which France is only onc iHth, had, been unable to agree as to the amount to be fixed as indemnity and the manner in which it should be p'd. Therefore, the premiers had to take hand in the matter." Situation Clarified. In a tone in which some of the ...... f . I , , . Jiiciiiorrs oi me cnamoer acciareu they noted sadness, M.

Concerning M. Tardieu's argu ment that the German. debt should he "mobilized" and discounted, M. Briand said: . "If there was the remotest possi bility of .discounting this debt or obligation which is impossible owing to' the troubled condition of the world's money market we vll rml1 rpfiic 4a rlrt en i c it rlmti 11 lose too much on exchange.
