Occupation Puts Big Burden On
Germans.
Paris, March 12.-Economists to-
day awoke to the fact that Germany
is burdened by the newly executed oc-
cupation of the Ruhr ports with more
than 100000 gold marks daily,
which, added to the 4,64O,000 mark
charges daily for the other occupied
areas, brings the annual cost to Ger
many for the occupation to the as
founding total of 2.062, $50, 900 gold
marks, or more than the annual in
demnity demanded under the proyi-
sions of the Paris reparations act.
The lopsided nature of the customs
sanctions" is Furthermore shown by
the official statement that Germany
must pay the cost of the new occupa-
tions as we'll as the salaries and ex-
penses of the customs officials, who
will be myriad.
This means that the cost of oper-
ating the customs barrier against
Germany will be approximately g.
600 gold marks daily, and in this
respect Stephanne Lausanne, in to-
days Matin. estimates that the proba-
BILE income to the allies from the
customs will be 15O.O0O,OOO marks
which is only 10000 daily.
Thus the German taxpayer will be
forced TO pay 65,0OO.OOO more an
nually than the allies will receive,
and this is especially significant, as
NJ. Lauzanne estimates that the Gus
toms receipts will dwindle monthly.
