THE REPARATIONS CONFERENCE

Londay, Aug, K A fealing af passimism as regards the Downing Street Con- ference is apparent, in consequence of the considerable diver- gencies of opinion which revealed themselves during the course of the expert committed's examination of M.

Meantime, the experts are) peg- ging away in the consideration

a report for pre- sentation to the main conference. The Frunes quarters in London, however, anticipate that Britain will reject H. Poincare's morning and conferred with him lengthily with a view to recan- plan as a whole. Mr. Llyod George visited M. Poincare early this

ciling their various standpoints. He subsequently left Claridge's Hotel accompanied by M, Theunis.

The Parisian papers which yesterday enthused asar M. Pola- care's presentment of Franch views at the opening of the Con- ferents are no less dissatished to-day with the proceedings of the axperts' committee and complain that the exesésive British considera- tion to Germany is to the detriment of Franke. On the contrary this is strenuously denied in British official circles in London where it is pointed out that the question is not one of the principle of reparation but of the manner of obtaining the same. Fear is ex- pressed that some measures proposed by the Allies will result in the destruction of all prospect of payment." The Italians and Belgians are nowise idle in the present negotiations. They are striving to present a solation commonly acceptable. It is pointed out how- ever, that the first and most important matter is the settling of the question of a moratorium.
