The pact agreed upon by Premiers Briand and Lloyd George was telegraphed to the British capital last night. The council planned to recess today until 5 p. m. while a sub-committee engages in the delicate task of fram- ing an invitation to the forthcoming | linternational financial and economic | conference to a country which has al- !ready formally accepted. This situ- |ation arose from the action of the Ru n soviet government which in| |it agerness to be represented at the Gienoa meeting sent a regular accept- | ance to the council's tentative query lif an invitation would be acceptable ! under certain conditions. | Meanwhile the French delegation is | waiting results of consultations in| >aris regarding settlement of the German reparations question. The program agreed upon by the delegates here provides for pay- ment in 1 of 720,000,000 marks and at least an equal sum an- | nually thereafter. ‘ The supreme council is to discuss [this matter with a German delegation | neaded by Dr. Walter Rathenau, which is expected to arrive from Ber- | lin tomorrow. With this disposed of the council will have remaining to onsider only the question of the An-| ora agreement between Irance and the Turkish Nationalists, The council plans to impress upon the German delegates the fact that| the allies cannot longer tolerate dis- |order in Germany's finances. Germany | will be asked immediately to reduce the number of public functionaries, |increase railroad freight and passen- igl'r rates and pass laws preventing exodus of capital. Upon the assur- |ances the German delegation is able |to give of carrying out these reforms depends the final decision of the coun- |cil as to whether to reinforce the |guarantecs to the allies as authorized | by the treaty of Versailles, The French have proposed that the {allies appoint a commission to take | |charge of the she defaults in the reparations pay ments. Mr. Lloyd George however, | prefers to give the Germans a chance |} {to put their finances in order and | balance their budget before adopting | further measures of control i Activities Tonight | The first meeting of the year for the democratic town committee will be held this evening at 8:30 o'clock | at the office of Lawyer David L.
