FRANCE WILL PAY
PUBLIC ANTAGONISTIC Paris, Deeember 11. Cabinet has decided to pay the debt instalment of 19,000,000 dollars due on Thursday, with the reservation which is being announced to-morrow. The Cabinet unanimously supports M. Herriot but the decision has antagonised a large section of the publie. Despite police preeautions, 6000 ex-servicemen marehed from a protest meeting to Quai d'Orsay while the Cabinet was sitting. The police scattered the demonstrators, hut hundreds reaehed the front door shouting "Not one cent for America." The police will strongly guard the Chamber of Deputies to-morrow, when M. Herriot will submit his debt proposals. The opponents include the Royalist newspaper Action Francaise, which descrihes it as a dishonourable payment and urges the citizens to go to Parliament as a protest.
