Poincare vows France to full Versailles reparations until debt paid
Premier Poincare declared France will not bend on completing the Versailles treaty reparations of 132 billion gold marks as agreed by allied London talks.

The message appears as a direct reply to Britain’s Ruhr occupation stance. Continued on page 8.
