The move for a debt settlement came ae a Nlmax to a furore over the snbjeot aroused by the Inventory pre­ sented to the chamber of deputies by Clementel.

They caused such a sensation, however, that the French government lost no time In moving for a settlement. The foreign office issued a denial of reports that payment are to be ex­ tended over 68 years and other rumors that have been current recently.
