In the most solemn tone Premier griand last evening in the French senate pledg ed himself to apply the stern sst coercion upon Germany after May 1 unless the Teutons had sat isfied the treaty provisions concern ing disarmament, punishment of the ivar guilty and reparations. With outstretched hand,-as if he were taking an oath, M. Briand, ihotited: "Unless Germajiy gives satisfac tion on these three counts you may rely upon me that the heaviest hand will seize Germany by the scruff of the neck." The senate cheered his statement uproariously. Pact to Divide Allies. The French premier said that Germany had attempted to divide (lie allies at the London conference but failed.

Agrees on Russia. The United States' answer to the Soviet's offer to resume trade de manded guarantees for the safety of persons and property which M. Jouvenel thinks it possible that Russia will grant for the sake of trade with the United States. The French view of the Russian problem is exactly the same as America's. M. Jouvenel argued that the great est mistake on the reparations ques tion was in making it Franco-German instead of international. He said a serious mistake would be made if the Russian problem was treated piecemeal. He demanded that France instruct M. Viviani to ast- the UnitpH Sitntot t- uni France in not allowing concession hunters to secure Russian property which was really France's security. The senator declared that if French security in Russia was disposed of France should not be asked to pay her foreign indebtedness. 4 M. Jouvenel referred to America m the friendliest of terms. He aroused tremendous cheering when he said "America unfortunately sent millions to wage war alongside of us, but sent only one to make peace."

British Reply To Mandate Note Sharply Worded Hold Colby's Stand on Meso potamia "Scarcely Con sistent" With Attitude On Mexican Oil Interests London, April 6. American con tentions for equality of treatment for the citizens of all nations in man dated territory are held by the British government to be "scarcely consistent" with the attitude oi tl: United States toward American oil interests in Mexico. The British view is expressed in a long reply to Secretary Colby's note oi last No vember 20, which was made public here today. The note, sinned by Lord L'urzon, secretary of state for foreign affairs, was delivered March 1 and was in answer to Secretary Colby's excep tions to the San Remo agreement between Great Britain and France relative to petroleum resources in Mesopotamia. That agreement, Lord Curzon said, was not fully under stood, it appeared, adding that it "aimed at no monopoly or ex-lusiv rights." The Mesopotamiau agreement w'as said by Lord Curzon to be subject to oil concessions in the vilayets oi Bagdad and Mosul granted to British interests before the war and not to be treated "merely as a mat ter of abstract principle" without reference to prewar negotiations. Rights acquired in Palestine by the Standard Oil company "are no stronger" than these British rights, the no( added. Request of the American govern ment that British rights thus ac quired be disregarded, Lord Curzon added, was "scarcely consistent" with the attitude "adopted by the I'nited States in regard to simitar United States interests in Mexico." The British note expresses agree ment with the American argument that the world's oil resources should be open for development without reference to nationality, but notes than, an art of the Philippine legisla ture in 1920 reserves development of the public mineral lands there to citizens of the United States or the Philippines. Such legislation can not but be regarded as in contradic tion of the general principle enun ciated by the United States," it con tinued.
