NEW DEVELOPMENTS EXPECTED

Lausanne, June 22.

IT IS DISCLOSED that France yesterday made a de- finite contribution towards the settlement of the re- parations issue. The French proposals, as outlined to leading foreign statesmen, fall far short of the ideal solution, but the veil of secrecy surrounding the discus- sions has successfully concealed the views of other Powers.

The proposals submitted include:

A SUSPENSION OF REPARATIONS FOR THREE YEARS.

Settlement in 1935

Ian Collins, the brilliant Scot- tish tennis player, who caused a sensation at Wimbledon yester day by beating Cochet. Collins in regarded as euentially dou bles player, a maker of opening for his partner to provide a spec-

AFTER THE PERIOD OF SUSPENSION, GERMANY SHALL AGREE TO PAY A GLOBAL SUM, WHICH WILL BE DIVIDED BETWEEN AMERICA AND OTHER CREDITOR COUNTRIES ON A PROPOR. ITIONATE BASIS.

Presumably, France suggests that Germany shall make one more, large payment three years hence to satisfy all claims' against her. Meanwhile, other pro- posals are in the air, and important developments are hourly expected.

BULK OF ESTATE

It is disclosed to-day that the real and personal estate of the late Mr. Malcolm Manuk, former Secretary of the Dairy Farm Ice and Cold Storage Co., Ltd, has been valued for probate purposes at $450,000.
