PARIS, May 20,

It is announced that the Belgian Government has intimated that if the German Government presents new reparation proposals it is advisable, on this occasion, that they be examined by the whole of the Allies, and not by Belgium and France alone, and that a response be made on behalf of the Entente as a whole.

Signif eance is attached to a Brussels telegram, published by Le Temps, stating that tie Belgian Government would shortly hand to the French Government a communication which would express the views of Belgium on the manner of settling the reparation business. —Aas.-if.Z. Cable Assn.
