He also planned to have a talk with Bonar Law prior to the Britisn Prime Minister’s departure for Lon- don earlier in the day. It was un- derstood that the Lausanne confer- ence would be the subject of this} conversation. ‘ | It is regarded here as probable that Premier Poincare will take for basis of action against Germany the recent decision of the reparations commission in adjudging Germany in default in her deliveries of wood. In a few days, it is believed, the com- mission will also find that Germany has defaulted in her conl deliveries. Sir John Bradbury, British mem- ber of the commission, is understood to have advised President Barthou that he will not attend the meeting next Tuesday at which the coal de- liveries ad Germany's request for a moratorium will be taken up. The decision is held in French circles that Great Britain plans to Obstain from participation in affairs of the commission and will be repre- sented by bserr. MAY CALL CONFERENCE.

High treasury officials on the other hand said today that they expected to see an early settlement of, the British debt question and indicated the belief that no serious difficulties would arise between the two delega- tions.
