S---- Rome, July 7.--Despite Xerman difficuities in the Ruhr, Italy has heen getting more reparations in kind during the last six months than ever before. Only coal is scarce, but the Germans promise a big incréase soon. Sugar has been coming in in large quantities and also chemicals, medicines and other articles. All this is reported by Signor Da- fello, Italian member of the Repara- tions Commission, who adds: "Today only Italy is getting repar- ations in kind. Neither France nor Belgium are receiving any, while England is merely applying the Re- covery Act. Our satisfactory results are due to our objectivity in apply- ing the peace treaties, for we strive to keep the strictly economic char- acter of the same while recovering reparations."
