GERMANY MUST PAY
 ALLIES LARGE SUM
AMOUNT FIXED BY VARIOUS GOVERNMENTS FOR DAMAGES
 Is 24o0o,ooO,ooo.
MORE TO BE ADDED LATER
Special Commission To Fix Sums For Various Losses-Must Pay Huge Sum ediately-Interest Bear
 ing Bonds To Be Issued.

Paris. - One hundred billion gold marks Approximately $24,000, 0,000,000) is the amount Germany must pay the allied and associated governments for losses and damage caused in the war, plus other billions to be determined by a special commission on which Germany is to be represented
 This is the final and definite con clusion, which has been reduced to writing after weeks of negotiation. which took a wide range and inyolv- ed frequent changes and modiffca- tions. The payment of the 100000. 000,000 gold marks is to be divided in- to three distinct amounts as follows: First, 20,000,000, 900 within two years: second, 10000, 100000 during 30 years beginning in 1921 third, 40,00O, ,000, ,0O0 when a commission shall determine how it shall be done.
 In view of the fluctuations through which the negotiations have passed. an authoritative statement was ob- tained concerning the final terms of the settlements. This sums up the conditions as follows:
 Germany is at the outset held gen. erally responsible for losses and dam- ages in accordance with President Wilson's IA points and the allied response at the time the armist1ce was concluded. To determine the ex- tent of the payment under this re- sponsibility, a commission is set up to take testimony, assemble data, and arrange all details of the payments from the enemy and distribution among the allied and associated powers.
 While the commission will admin ister the details of the payments, sui f1eient is known that a first payment will be required of 20,000,000,000 gold marks, payable in two years without interest. It has also been determined that 40,00O,000,000 gold marks shall be payable in bonds extending oyer a. period of 30 years, beginning in 1921 with sinking fund beginning in 1926.
 These 10000, 100000 marks draw ? 1-2 per cent interest from 1921 to 1920 and per cent interest after 1928.
