REPARATION CONFERENCE
ON WAR INDEMNITY,
[United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.]
THE HAGUE, January 11
“Where are we nowP Where are we now?” asked M. Jasper at the morning meeting, the “Big Six” rejoining : “Nowhere!” Mr Philip Snowden again demanded that the Germans should get down to facts. M. C’heron and Mr Snowden expressed disappointment that the German delegation had not submitted any concrete proposals on the various points to be discussed. Herr Meldenlmurer began by explaining the attitude of the Germandelegation, but Mr Snowden curtly interrupted him. “There has been too much talk by the German delegation. This discussion has lasted too long. It is intolerable. When one is a plenipotentiary, one should be able to settle matters without having to refer to someone else!” This blunt hint resulted in Herr Curtius promising that the German delegation would submit, the desired concrete proposals within two hours, for which he would send an undersecretary to Geneva, instead of going himself.
Uneasiness prevails in German quarters, in view of Herr Schacht’s expected arrival to-morrow regarding what standpoint he will adopt on the un settled points.
