June 24 The French reply to President Hoover's proposals for a year's suspension of war debts payments and repara tions was handed to Ambassador Edge by Premier Laval this afternoon. Ambassador Edge discussed the document for half an hour with the premier. The French government transmitted tbe reply this afternoon to Ambassador Osudet at Washington who Is expected to turn It over to the state department late today. Premier Laval was understood to have given Ambassador Edge detailed explanations of the contents which will be given out Friday. Answer's Nature Secret The premier refused to make any comment concerning the nature of the French answer.

He would not aay whether France insisted upon a counter-plan concerning the pay ments of uncond.uonal annuities by Germany. The United States government ha informed France the condi tions ahe is expected to attach to ber acceptance of tbe Hoover moratorium proposal probably would not be regarded with favor In Washington, it mu learned. This conditional acceptance la based upon France's belief that the Young plan la sacred to ber finan cial structure and that ft would not be interfered with. She holds that the bank for international settlement should be the intermediary for the reception" of Germany's unconditional annuities and that tbe money should be used by the bank for financing Germany and oteer European nations such as Austria. It Is understood here that Wan- ington feels that the Hoover ptan should be accepted In its entirety and that the technicalities of use Young plan should not be allowed to delay Fear for Teoag Ftaa Should the French cabinet decide to approve the counter plan, nope was voiced here that the United States would accord the move its earnest consideration- because France la convinced it would attain the object which Mr.

Hoover is seeking In his proposal. It is submitted that France, called upon to make a big sacrifice In either event, should be permitted to offer a suggestion as to bow the problem can be met Behind her policy, it was said. Is the fear that once shaken the Toung plan win finally fall completely. WHX HOLD TO PLAN FUiii Principles Not Te Be departed Front. Sttasoa says.
