TO TAKE HUN VESSELS
IN PAYMENT FOR FOOD
Supreme War Council Delegates
Will Meet Germans at Brus-
sells Wednesday.

Paris, March 13.-The plans
adopted by the supreme war council
under which negotiations with the
German authorities regarding the
turning over of the German mer-
chant shipping will be resumed, af-
ter their recent interruption at Spa,
provide for the holding OF the ses-
sions of the negotiations at Brus-
sells. The allied delegates will leave
Paris next Wednesday for the Bel
gium capital and the first session in
the resumption of the negotiations
will probably be held Thursday in
one OF the government palaces
there
The plans determined upon by the
council, as already stated. provide
for taking over the German mer-
chant ships in return for food sup
ply for Germany until the next har-
vest. The chief difficulty thus far
has been over the manner OF pay
ment for the food supplies, but new
proposals are expected to meet the
former objections.
1t is understood that the payments
will come from three sources
first, in the form OF products such
as coal and potash; second, from
credits which Germany has in neu-
tral countries which thus far have
been unavailable because OF the
financial blockade; and, third from
foreign securities held by Germany.
II is estimated that these three
sources will readily yield about
$500, 900, which is the sum re-
quired to pay for food relief to an
extent considered adequate to carry
the Germans until the time OF their
harvest
| From the nature OF the exchanges
! during the negotiations at Spa the
! allied delegates have reason to ex-
pect that the new proposals Will be
acceptable to the Germans, and the
belief generally prevails that an
adjustment will be reached under
which German ships will soon be-
come available to move American
troops homeward.
One OF the main influences In
. bringing about the decision of the
supreme council was said to be let
ter read by Premier Lloyd George
from a British general setting forth
: the extreme seriousness OF the food
