Soap to VERSAILLES PACT GOES BY BOARD Many of the Original Repara tion Clauses Already Havo Boon Abrogated FRANCE MORE RECONCILED Special Cat! Dispatch. Copyrloht. lOtt Paris, Feb. 3. Student of the situ ation hero declare- that tho trentv ot Versailles may be considered to have cone bv the board. Tho Tendon conference which mecta February 28 faces the task of revision which was necessitated because- several provisions of tho reparations agreement reached at Taris last week clash with corresponding provisions in tho Ver sailles pact. This development Is accepted as u triumph for Itrillsh diplomacy. By distributing the German repara tions payment over a period of forty two years, the recent 1'nris conference runs counter to tho treaty of Vcrsall'cs, which stipulated thirty years, nt Prcsl dent Wilson's behest, on the grounr' that only tho guilty of thia generation should suffer. I nves tine of tho killed rcnarattons commission with authority to contro nil of Germany's foreign loans and financial operations will bo protested by tho Germans at the London confcicuce as a vio ntion of thp treaty. Tho It' per cent tax on German exports, which has arousccd the Indignation of nil neu trals, will also bo cited as breach of the pact. Tho Important French news papers have become reconciled to the rovls'on of the treaty nnd are pointing out that it is to France's advantage to admit a modification of tho terms. Thus, they declare, Franco's repara tions will bo mado raoro secure, whereas useless opposition means re vision at France's cxpenfce. Two motives actuate tho postpone ment of the Brussels conference of ex perts scheduled to take place February 7. The first Is that London ngrcca with Berlin that tho treaty must be modi lied and .the second Is that tho Allic got wind of the fact that Germany hn'1 decided not to send delegates to ne gotiate an agreement which it felt In capable of fulfilling.
