The British Note, circulated to the Allied Governments, con- cludes that the Government does not suggest, either as a matter of Justice or expediency, that Germany should be relieved of her obligation to France or ether Allied States, but so deeply is it con- vinced of the' economic injury inflicted on the world by the exist. ing state of things, that it would be prepared, subject to the just claims of the other parts of the Empire, that Britain would abandon all further right to German reparations and all claima cf" repay- of a part ment by the Allies provided renunciation formed a Road,general plan whereby this great problem could be dealt with as

A copy of the Note, which was prepared by Earl Balfeur and approved by the majority of the Cabinet, has been handed to the American Ambassader as an act of courtesy:

Lendɔn, Aug. 2.

The British Note has generally been fairly well received pr the Press, must of the critiäism being mild. The Times fears that the prospect of securing a general settlement of the reparations for the question has not been improved thereby owing to the effect on America. The Westminster Gazette says that the case policy followed is manifestly strong; but it would bave preferred the Government to have set America a generous èxample by can- The Delly News thinks telling the indebtedness of the Allies. that the Note is chiedy a warning to France. The Chronicle sng- gests that a, partial general cancellation of the European debt might be possible even without America f France was in the mood. The Morning Post deeply deplores the Note, which will much annes America and make France despair. It condemns the apply- ing of charity in egual doses to France and Germany.

Paris, Aug. 2 The text of M. Pigure's raply to Germany shows that France requires an assurance that two million sterling will be paid by Aug. 15th. Coercive measures are threatened in the absence of such an assurance by Ang sth. Then to add that a very complete plan of such measures has been decided on, but will not be disclosed at present.

JAPAN AND PACIFIC ISLANDS,

Geneva. Aug. 2.

The Permanent Mandates Commission of the League of Nations has insidered the report' of the Japanese Government on the stministration of the Pacife Islands held by Japan under a Man- date Commission. Special attention is brought to beat inter clis on questions concerning labour, regime, regulation of liquor traffic. education, land tenure, and the ascal system. It was arranged that certain points upon which the Commission, desires, further elucidation be dealt with more thoroughly in the next annual report.

THE STRIKE IN ITALY.

Rome, Aug. 2.

The day passed quietly. Public services were maintained regularly and everywhere the railwaymen remained at work. Sol- diers of Fascisti are replacing the striker. The only disturbances were a fight between Communists and Fascisti supporters at Genos. where two Communists were hurt, and a collision at Leghorn where a number of persons were injured. The strike is a complete failure in many town.

FRENCH RAILWAY DISASTER.

Paris, Aug. 2 Graphic details of the accident at Ville Contal (mentioned in Earlier Cables show that the trains were crowded with pilgrims. many of whom were blind and cripplet. The driver of the first engine in crawling up an incline, discovered that the train was over- loaded and the driving wheels refused to grip the fog-damped rails. The train slipped back, increasing in momentum. The driver of the second train saw the runaway approaching and applied the brakes, but was unable to avoid the crash.

THE AMERICAN STRIKES.

Washington, Aug. 2. The Railway Executives have rejected President Harding's proposal that the striking shopmen be reinstated without forfeiting seniority and other rights, but they have conditionally accepted his other two proposals for settling the strike. Firstly: Operators and workmen to agree to recognize the wilding of all decisions of the Railroad Labour Board. Secondly: Carriers to withdraw all law. suits and the Board's decisions to be taken before Boards by either

party for rehearing.

Signor Biagio Boriello, a prom. inent Neapolitan director of companies, and a member of the Supreme Council on Mercantile Marine, has been in Loudon with of an influential delegation Italian commercial magnates.

In the course of an interview at the Hotel Cecil, London, Signor Boriello expressed some interesting views on the sympathy and understanding, both com- mercial and otherwise, that is perceptibly growing up between to the the British and Italian peoples.
