GERMANY SHOULD
PAY 3 BILLIONS
That Sum for Five Years
Would Pay Entente's
War Debt.
NV Assoclated Press.l

Paris. May 1.-The equivalent Of $3,-
zoo, 100000. q year IL what Germany
should be compelled to pay the entente
allies during as many years as may
be necessary to liduidate the total war
debt, asserts M. de VerneuiL honorary
president of the Paris Oficial Stock
holders association. He calculates
that she will be able to pay such an
annuity.
The exposition by DR.. Karl
Helnerich. the German. vice chancellor,
of the economic situation of Germany
in 1913 is taken by M. de Verneuil as
the basis of his calculations. The
figures he cites are al follows:
The wealth Of the German empire
in 1s13-375. 0o0. 100000 francs.
Annual revenue therefrom-50,00 0,-
Government and individual expendi-
lures OF all sorts-S7. 500. 900. 900 francs.
including Germany's vast outlay for
armament.
Total yearly economies--12, 500, 000,-
600 francs of which 2.500.000.000 is
credited to the growing value of exist
ing fortunes. leaving 10000, 100000
francs net savings from actual earn
ings.,
These figures of Germany's annual
accumulation of wealth are confirmed,
M. de Verneuil asserts. by all careful
German calculators and he takes the
net 10000, 100000 as the basis for hgur-
ing Germany's paying capacity. He
adds 1900. 100000 francs to be derived
from a tax of five francs per ton on
Germany's coal production OF 100000
900 tons, 650,000.000 to be raised by: a
per capita tax of ten francs per year,
100000 francs from an annual con-
tribution levied upon all cities OF more
than 100000 population, and 1.750,000,-
600 francs from increased passenger
and freight rates and receipts from
monopolies. Thus he arrives at an
aggregate of $4,000, 900, 900 francs.
A superposed tax of 90 to 80 per
cent on the coupons of all German
bonds and bonds of other nations held
in Germany would furnish another L.
00o.000.000 francs. M. de Verneuil
says to be applied to the indemnifica-
ton Of all the victims Of the war.
M. de Verneuil disagrees with those
who think that Germany's resources
will be entirely. exhausted when she
asks for peace. She will be able, he
thinks, very promptly after the cessa-
ton of hostilities to take up again,
with even increased facilities for pro-
duction, the extraordinary activity that
DIR. Helfferich exposed with detailed
figures.
France, with her great industrial
region of the north paralyzed for a
considerable period will be in a great
er. state OF inferioritS than ever ], as
compared to her aggresSor. the antici-
pateS. and he cites it as me more rea-
son for loading upon GernAsny a. COM
pensating burden that will prevent her
from enjoying an advantage so ruth

TWO PROVINCES
IN CROWN LANDS
Confscated Territory Larg-
er and Probably Richer
Than Germany.
fBy Associated Press.l.

Petrograd, May 1.-The crown lands
in Siberia which the new provisional
government has conflscated from the
imperial family and turned over to the
state, include almost the whole OF the
provinces Of Altai and Nerchinsk. en-
bracing territory larger than Ger
many and probably richer than Ger
many in its natural resources.
Since the eighteenth century. these
lands have been the personal property
of the Russian emperors, who being
occupied with other matters. have
paid little attention to their develop
ment. Both provinces are rich In
minerals, including gold. iron, zinc and
lead. Included in these crown lands
also are the coal fields of Kuznetsk,
which are said by experts to be among
the richest In Europe. The Altai
region includes also thousands OF acres
Of undeveloped farm land Of high
fertility.
The opening OF these lands is ex-
pected to simplify the agrarfan prob
lem and facilitate the work OF eco
nornic adjustment after the war.

CHINA TRYING
TO CURE TARIFF
Entanglements Such That
Industrial Conditions Are
Seriously Affected.
(Ry Associated Press. )

Picking, May 2.--China is making
vigorous efforts to free itself from the
unfavorable tariff regulations and 9TH
er treaty entanglements which en-
barrass the country financially and
make 1t impossible for the republic to
protect itself against intrigues.
Both the entente powers and the
neutrals have been appealed to by the
Chinese government in an effort to
gain greater freedom from foreign in
reference in Chinese affairs.
The severance of diplomatic rela-
tons with Germany Afforded an excel
lent opportunity for China to press its
claims for fair treatment at the hands
of the foreign powers. DIR. WI Ting
fang presented the following memoir
andum to DIR. Paul s. Reinsch, the
American minister, in Picking, which is
said to be virtually the same as that
presented to the ministers OF other
foreign powers:
with respect to the share OF the
United States Of America of the in
demnity Of 1901, it is hoped that she
will, with the good intention of as
sisting China's finances, suspend the
payment for period of ten years, af-
ter which period, the annual payments,
according to the original instalments.
without any addition OF interest, are
to be resumed.
"The Chinese government hopes that
the United States of America with
the good intention of assisting China
finances, will agree to an Immediate
imposition OF a surtax of so per cent
on the present import duty. In the
meantime, the Chinese government
will revise the customs tariff and at
ter revision, levy an effective seven
and one-half per cent duty.
1T is hoped that the provisions con-
tanned insthe protocol Of 1901 and ac-
cessorY documents which tend to inn
pede the effectiveness of the precau-
tionary measures of the Chinese gov
eminent vis-a-vis the Germans, that
is, those respecting the inability Of

tsin and the presence of foreign troops

way. win be cancelled.

Utrecht, Netherlands, May 2.-Dutch
traders seeking fresh means to sup
ply their home needs from home sour
ces and Dutch manufacturers anxious
TO displace foreign made goods organ
lied the first Dutch National fair now
in progress at Utrecht.
This first national attempt TO bring
manufactures and wholesale dealer in

seems assured. All exhibits had to be
of Dutch manufacture. The results
were highly creditable to Dutch enter
prise. The fair discloses the fact that
Holland is making bold bid for in-
dustrial independence. In the last

have been built in this country; not
