Tremendous Indemnities.
[By Carl d. Groat, United Press staff
Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-Tremen'
dous indemnities for her barbarism
kconfront Germany.
Whether that fact will delay or de
ter her acceptance Of the United
States-allied armistice terms consti
tuted an absorbing topic of specula'
ton today.
The logic Of the situation appeared
to be that she would yield. as she
can never get better terms. 1t Is
stated.
The SOLDERING realization OF years
of taxes for her crimes, however, may
swerye Germany into desperate
effort to rally her retreating armies
her war worn populace and to fight
on.

basic Wilson peace formula. 1t was
held here.
1t was pointed out, Germany ao-
cepted that formula. leaving details
to be worked out at the peace table.
Hence the note may not change the
position of Germany toward accepting
the armistice.
1t was pointed out that Wilson de-
clared for restoration" of invaded
territories. The allies at Versailles
gave notice that this would be inter
preted as hard cash for damages
done the allied civilian population and
property by land. sea and air.
II Germany had an idea that Sbtg
restoration indemnities were not in
tended by Wilson, it is foreseen that
she may fight on, desperately hoping
for better terms, later.
Expect Answer Tomorrow.

ected to indicate soon, perhaps to-
morrow, whether she will ask Mar
