FIRM HANDllNG

P9, RIS, Aug. .. (Associated Press)
———l-’icmier Poincare's firm handling of
the controversy with the Germans
over the payment of private debts has
brought general satisfaction here. It
is rrgarded as auguring well for the
attitude the premier will take at the
coming London conference which will
deal with the reparations question, in~
tcrailied debts and related issues.

The. question as to what constitute
the treasures of “retortion” mention-
ed in the. French note to Germany
was of paramount interest this morn—
ing. ‘he Germans. according to LB
JOYRNAL. know already that they
consist of the expulsion of 80,000,
Germans from Alsace-Lorraine and
the confiscationof their property in
of the richest persons on the left bank
of the richest persons on teh left bank
and the seizure of the
Dusseldorf. Dulsburg and

 

cities of

The critics of M. Poincare, such as
my‘ newspaper l’OEUVRE, however,
look upon his letter as a noisy out-
burst. The probability, they say. is
that the affair will be thrown in with
the whole question of reparations and
lute-rallied debts.

plan for settlement of the shopmens
strike so far as it dealt with the sen-

from the labor leaders' meeting 1n
Chicago, was expectcdrtoday to pre-

There had been no indication of
what new step, if any. the Govern-

ed at the VYhitc House that the tone
of the replies and the circumstances
.under which they were made would
influence, to some extent. the Presi—

The Government. it is known, views
the railroad strike as serious in efifect
only because of the present stoppage
of coal production. In order to cope
with that problem. it has been inti-
mated repeatedly that: the Adminis-

an attack on the city by the Greeks
had been averted. Troop movements
continued all last night and today.
with additional allied forces debark-
