FRANCE NOW READY TOACT BY HERSELF Poincaire Says Govt. Must Take Steps if Brussels Fails Parls, Nov. 11.—Premier Poincare has told the French senate that the Trench government had decided to act alonc with respect to Germany It the Brussels conference falled to give France satisfaction. He ex- pressed the opinion that no general settlement of the reparations pro- gram was possible unless the ques- tion of inter-allied debts was solved at the same time, “France is not imperialistic,” he declared. "I can say that she is the least imperialistic of the nations, but she has rights to defend. We do not contemplate any personal action |rate. but ¢ before the Brussels conference, if we do not obtain satisfaction there {8 nothing in the world that can pre- vent us from acting alone in the full- ness of our rights.” The premier was replying to Sen- ator Hubert, who asserted that oc- cupation of at least part of the Ruhr district was indispensable to bring the heads of German industry to a reasonable attituyde on the execution of the Versailles treaty and the pay- ment of German reparations. Avoid Ruhr Question, M. Poincare agreed that energetic action was necessary but avoided the question of occupying the Ruhr. He recalled that he was ready last Aug- ust to present a general plan for the payment of reparations and inter- allied debts. But the British cabinet {ssued a note in which the debt of NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, N lVb‘MBbK 11, 1922, INCREASE SHOWN IN OCT. BUILDING 14 Per Gegt. Ahead o Last Year, Statistics Prove Bullding ‘contracts awarded during Qctober in the twenty.seven North- eastern states (which include about three-fourths of the total construc- tion in the country) amounted to $268,187,000, according to the F. W, Dodge company. This figure is 14 per ent ahead of that reported in Oe- tober of last year. The progress of the #easonal decline in October is shown in the drop of 7 per cent from the previous month, In view of the fuel and car shortage and other re- strietive factors, construction activity is continuing at a very satisfactory Residential eonstruction continues very high rate, October contracts having amounted to $110,776,200, or 44 per cent of the month's total. This was an increase over September residential construc- tion, Other important items in the October figures were: $41,477,000, ot 16 per cent, for public works and utiliti 's; $82,087,000, or 13 per cent, for business buildings: $27,640,000, or 11 per cent, for industrial buildings; and $§17,437,000, or 7 per cent, for ed- ucatidhal buildings. Construction started during the first 10 months of this year has amounted at for this class to $2,887,446,000, This is 23 per cent greater than the total for the entire year 1921, and 47 per cent greater than the total for the first 10 months of 1921, The revival of residential conctruc- Great Britain was linked with Brit-|tion this year has overshadowed every ish debt to the United States. At the game time, continued M. Poincare, Mr. Lloyd George declared solemnly that it was necessary to accord a moratorium to Germany avithéut charging her default against her. “T remarked at the time,” sald M. Poincare, “that a moratorium was a purely negative measure, that it could not contribute to uplifting the reich or the world, T proposed that before granting a moratorium the al- lles take as pledges 60 per cent in the dye industries and aviation and estab- lish customs houses on the Rhine, but I met with opposition, particular- ly of Belgium." German Industry Profiting. German industry, he said, had con- tinued te profit from the deprecia- tion of the mark, but finally it was realizing that it was\likely ‘to be- come the victim of its own maneuv- ers. “Lord Curzon has promised us the support of the new British govern- ment,” sald M. Poincare in conclu- slon, “and we are always ready to press a cordial hand extended to us. We count on the friendship of Great Britain as she may count on the friendship of France." Senator Berenger asked’' the pre- mier: “Is it true, as has been said, that the 90,000,000,000 francs ad- vanced hy France on reparations due from Germany are lost, that France will never collect anything more than the interest?” M. Poincare replied: “If such fears are expressed, they are due to the present situation. But our right# re- main intact and w¢ shall keep intact the guarantees that we hold under the treaty of Versailles.” ARMY ASSIGNMENTS Wahington, Nov. 11. — Secretary ‘Weeks has announced the following assignments of general officers con- tingent on promotions and retirements effective next month.
