WHAT CAN GERMANY PAY?
TIRED EXPERTS PARLEY SIX HOURS’ DISCUSSION (Australian and N.Z. Press Association} LONDON, Thursday. A message from Paris says the members of the Committee of Experts on Reparation looked very tired when they emerged from the Council room last evening, after a six hours’ discussion of Germany’s capacity to pay her creditors. Obviously the creditors cannot usefully ask Germany to pay more than a sum declared by the most competent. authorities to be the maximum she can pay. -On the other hand the Germans feel that once the paying capacity of their country is fixed they will be required to pay to the full limit. So the experts have come to immediate grips with the real issue. The “Financial Times’* says it is disquieting to see early disagreements which are described as marking a critical, possibly a fateful, stage of the proceedings of the committee. It is the function of the experts to ascertain the true situation in Germany and to make recommendations based upon it. The waiting world will accept no excuse for avoidable failure to produce an agreed plan.
