Tentative suggestion of the Imperial
German Government also be adopted.
so that this question Of treaty inter-
probation can be submitted forth
with to arbitration pursuant to
article s. Of The Hague Convention
for the pacific settlement Of interna-
tional disputes.
In this way both the question Of
indemnity and the question Of treaty
Interpretation can promptly be set
tied. and 1t will be observed that the
only change made In the plan pro-
posed by the Imperial German Gov
ernment is that instead of eliminat-
ing either one Of its alternative sug-
gestions. they are both given effect
