ALLIED REPATRIATION CLAIMS
 TO BE FORTY MILLION DOLLARS
Associated Press Service.

Associated Press Service.
 PARIS, March 21---lt is announced that the repatriation claims to be pre- sented to Germany have been placed at forty billion dollars and the peace treaty will embody !, demand for the payment of that huge sum in connec- tion with the war settlements.
 President Wilson, David Lloyd George and Premier Clemenceau have fixed upon the indicated sum as a just re- compense to those who suffered from the German invasion of France, Bel sium and Siberia after a series of conferences held during the present week, and will recommend that the allied repatriation claims be fixed at that figure.
 The question of | hw Germany is to pay such an immel SC indemnity in addition to other claims running into the hundreds of millions is a source of considerable speculation. It is pro- posed by peace conference officials that the payments be spread over ;t period of forty years. as it is believed that Germany will not be able to iquidate the debt within Il les ser period Should the proposal receiveN ihe approval of the Peace Conference i, will mean that Germany will hate to pay practice
 double the original sum. Prin- cipal and interest together will amount to about eighty billion dollars if the Germans require the. entire forty years to complete paymen

HEAVIES TO FIGHT
Beckett, Conqueror of Wells,
Matched With Goddard.

LoNoN. March 15.-Joe Beckett, the
English heavyweight boxer who knocked
out Bombardier Wells in fight on Feb
ruary :. has signed an agreement with
Frank Goddard to meet in the ring in
London, the winner to fight Georges
Carpenter, the French heavyweight
The contest will not occur before May.
Beckett and Goddard occupy peculiar
positions in English puSilism. Each has
knocked out an English champion, but
neither is recognized as title holder
Goddard stopped Dick Smith. the light
heavyweight champion of England. in
the seventh round but as the victor
scaled ISL pounds he did not become
champion of the light heavyweight class
Beckett. who stopped Wells in the third
round, is not recognized as title holder
because the fight did not take place I'M
der the auspices OF the National Sport
ing Club. Beckett, while the de facto
champion, is not champion de jure
There is small doubt that Wells will
fight either Goddard or Beckett for the
English title or forfeit.
