That manufacture Of real beer can
not be carried on in the same plants
used for manufacture Of near beer
the kind containing less than one half
OF one per cent. of alcohol.
That breweries may sell only to
wholesale druggists, who in turn sell
to retail druggists who must have

It is maintained in the German note
that the 10000, 100000 marks which
the Peace Treaty provided should be
handed over by May has been more
than paid.
The note asks that a joint commis-
sion of experts fix the value OF the
German deliveries on reparation ac-
count, but it declares that in any
event it would be impossible for Ger
many to pay 12,OOOOOO,OOO marks by
the first OF May.
The note concludes as follows:
"If, after the experts have conferred,
it is established. that there is a deficit
in the payments by Germany. she is
ready to begin negotiations with the
Reparations Commission regarding the
floating Of loan abroad"
The Reparations Commission met
this morning to consider the German
reply, which was transmitted from
Berlin last night. The Germans fail
ure to pay is deemed a violation Of the
Treaty of Versailles which the COM
mission will report to the Allied Gov

German experts already have been
heard by the Commission before fix
ing the valuation Of the German de-
liveries credited as payments against
the 10000, 100000 marks. This val
uation therefore was considered final,
