nanced itself by inflation of credit.
The debt of the republic has in-
creased without halt. and further
borrowing has become more and
more costly. The increase in the
of the malady of which declining
franc exchange is the'symptom.
The French claim that their huge
expenditures for reparations will
come to an end in another'two years
