**G.P.H.F.**

**From:** Paris

**To:** Washington

**Fax:** 808-314 (Summary)

**Sent:** Jan. 28, 1945

**Reel:** Feb. 3, 1945

The Minister of Finance says that American soldiers are quite unjustified in complaining of high prices in France. Their food being supplied to them by the army, and their lodging by the French under Mutual Aid, they have no expenses except for luxury articles and entertainment, the prices of which are just as high for the French. He rejects BONNET's suggestion that the Americans should pay only half price for these things, the remainder to be provided by the French Government, on the grounds that it would be most unfair to place any extra burden upon a people who already are suffering from no heating and an uncertain food supply. He says that cases of fraud by dishonest shopkeepers are being dealt with for the sake of the French as well as the Americans, and that American residents of France find nothing unfavourable in the position of American soldiers in that country.
