REPARATIONS.
DELEGATES LEAVE BERLIN.
NEW PROPOSAL MADE. TASK FOR COMMISSION. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Berlin. August 25. It is reported that Sir John Bradbury’s delegation and Herr Hermes failed to come to an agreement, and the Cabinet thereupon evolved a programme to establish a reserve fund of foreign currencies to be placed at the disposal of the Reparations Commission if Germany falls behind with supplies of coal and timber. It is understood that the delegation refused, but the negotiations are continuing. Received August 27, 5.5 pan. Berlin. Aug. 25. Sir John Bradbury and M. Mauclere have left without concluding arrangements with Herr Wirth. The next step will lie with the Reparations Commission. Berlin, Aug. 26. The Vossische Zeitung takes an optimistic view of the situation. It declares the German proposal which Sir John Bradbury had taken to submit to the Reparations Commission would have been approved if the mission had the power. It is officially stated that while informal conversation® between Sir John Bradbury, M. Maeter-e, the German Chancellor and the Minister of Finance cannot be said to have led to any positive result up to the present, various suggestions were made and the delegates who have returned to Paris regard themselves in a position to advise the Reparations Commission regarding the existing situation in Germany, which was the primary object of their visit; also to advise upon suggestions made.
SUPPOSED AMERICAN CONTROL. REGARDED UNFAVORABLY. NO RUPTURE OF NEGOTIATIONS. Received August 27, 5.5 p.m. London, August 26. The Daily Express’ Berlin correspondent states that Germany’s last suggestion to Sir John Bradbury was that the mines, forests, and occupied Rhineland should be placed under American supervision and control. Apparently, Herr Stinnes and the other industrialists with whom he conferred advised this plan, but the mission regard it unfavorably. German official circles emphasise that there has been no rupture of negotiations.
