Berlin, April 10th = ASSOCIATED Press:
Count Won Brockdortf R%antzau, the For
eign Minister, speaking before the Ma
tional Assembly at Weimar today said
Germany would not sign a peace treaty
which deViated in any essential from
President Wilson's Fourteen Points"
The financial demands to be made in
the Peace Treaty are obviously causing
as many difficulties to our enemies, as
those regarding territory, said the Foreign
Minister. 1T is impossible to solve the
question Of financial claims without ne
gotiating with our experts at the Con-
ference table. We will give a clear ac-
count to our opponents relative to their
demaa Is, and our ability to pay"
