Finance
Powers to which German territory Is
ceded will assume a certain portion of
the German pre-war debt the amount to
be fixed by the Preparations, commission
on the basis of the ratio between the
revenue of the ceded territory and Ger
many's total revenues for the three years
preceding the war. In view, however,
of the special circumstances under which

France in 1871 when Germany refused
to accept any part of the French public
debt, France will not assume any part
of Germany's pre-war debt there, nor will
Poland share in certain German debts
incurred for the oppression of Poland. If
the value of the German public property
in coded territory exceeds the amount
OF debts assumed, the states to which
property is ceded give credit on reparation
for the excess with the exception of
Lorraine. Mandatory powers will
not assume any German debts or give
any credit for German government prop
erty. Germany renounceS all right to
representation on or control of state
banks, commissions, or other similar in
