The Reparation Commission lias asked Sir John Bradbury, principal British representative, and M. Mauclere, president of the Committee on Guarantees, to go to Germany to obtain certain indispensable information from the German Government. It is reported that Sir John Bradbury's mission to Berlin is to endeavour to arrange an agreement whereby Germany will give guarantees which will meet, the French demands in connection with a moratorium. Ifc is suggested that Germany might be persuaded to transfer to a bank in the occupied territory a sum representing a portion of the capital value of the Ruhr mines and forests, thereby enabling Franco to relinquish her demand for their control. Another report declares fhat France is preparing to act alone, and occupy the Ruhr Valley within 48 hours if the Reparation Commission grants a moratorium without adequate guarantees.
