PARIS, July 6. French
and American statesmen early this
morning reached the basis of a
complete agreement for the appli
cation ol the Hoover plan for
economic relief to Germany.
"President Hoover's plan con
sists of the granting of a mora
torium 1 on German reparations
payments to her Kurbpean cred
itors nations from July 1, 1931 to
July 1, 1932. In return the United
States proposes to forego Euro
pean war debt payments duo it
during the same period.
After a series of negotiations
which had been always laborious,
and sometimes delicate and even
critical, the statesmen reached
their accord after midnight.
The draft of the text, which
was to be telegraphed to Wash
ington Immediately, is subject to
the approval of President Hoover
and his governmental colleagues.
If the president finds that it
conforms to the principles of his
plan, a final decision is expected
on Monday and the agreement will
bo put into final form at another
conference of the J-'rench and
America statesmen which probab
ly will also be hold Monday.
It will then be initialed by the
negotiators.
The Havas news agency said
that the Franco-American agree
ment fixed 12 years as the length
of time to be allowed Germany
for the repayment of the delayed
funds.
It said the thorniest part of the
disagreement was the French de
mand for jthe continuation of Ger
many" of payments in kind, to
which continuation the American
government was fundamentally
opposed. It added that tho inter
views of Foreign Minister Aristirte
BrJand on Saturday with Secre-1
tary Mellon and Ambassador Edge
were on tho subject of Germany's
good faith.
BrJand was said to have ex
plained that France was willing
to help Gormany but that she re
quired assurance that the credits
extended would not bo used for
armaments and that 'efforts at
central European hegemony must
not disturb confidence.
It was learned that an import
ant accompaniment to the agree
ment will bo the convocation in
Paris at a very early date of a
conference of representatives of
the nations which adhero to the
Young plan.
This conference probably will
be one of experts rather than of
diplomats, and will have as Its
object the dovetailing of the pro
jected Franco-American accord
into tho Young plan. The out
standing problem will be tho
question of a guarantee fund
which France is obligated to do
posit with tiio world bank for in
ternational settlements.
The impression prevailed this
morning that Secretary Mellon and
Ambassador Edgo foresee no ma
terial obstacles to tho acceptance
of tho agreement, but they had
practically no counsel from tech
nical experts.. The French states
men were aided by a corps of ex
perts and it Is conceivable that
some changes may bo suggested
by Washington after the agree
ment is examined there. :

Political Independence for the

as the most effective euro for the

advocated today by Senator Wil
liam K. Borah, Idaho, chairman
of the senate committee on for
eign affairs.
The senator's views wero ex
pressed in an Independence day
address In B1r Bend, near tho
Idaho line. Approximately 2,000
persons from Oregon and Idaho
heard him.
"Wo talk about over produc
tion," Senator Borah said, "because
we are ashamed to talk about un
der consumption. While theie Is
a Rurplus of products on one hand
and peoplo in want on the other,
I can see no over production.
"Wo have tho products. What
wo need is some one to buy them.
But how ran peoplo buy when the
medium of exchange, tho buying
power of half ho world, has been
cut into by tho selfish hrutallty
of those in power reducing the
purchasing power of half tho poo
pie of the world ?
"Since the days of Abraham, the
people of India havo . used fcllver
as a medium of exchange. It was
their wish and their habit to do
so, In 1 2 5 Great Britain forced
India to the gold standard nnd
cut her purchasing power in half.
"I do not udvocate doing nway
with the gold standard but I do
not see anything financially un
sound witli restoring silver by in
ternational agreement to tho sit
uatln which obtained In 1925 and
prior thereto."
Kef erring to International re
lationships tho senator took a
fling at those who advocate tho
entry of tho United Suites into the
league of nations. Me declared
there Is an great need for isola
tion today ns there wad when
Washington delivered his farewell
