GERMANS MORE HOPEFUL.
PARIS, August 19. ‘ Le Matin’s’ Berlin correspondent states that Sir John Bradbury’s mission is regarded as an indication that the Reparations Commission is seeking a means for dispelling difficulties which delay its decision, and lias caused optimism, as the conversations are to ho conducted between the Commission and the German Cabinet. It is not believed in German official circles that M. Poincare desires a policy of force, and it is doubted if tho Ruhr occupation will be carried out. Threats of the sanctions are being regarded as methods of diplomatic coercion and a political manoeuvre.
The exchange rate on Berlin opened at 5,625 marks, and recovered to 5,450 marks to the £l.
