GerInanys new reparations bonds will

market most of the, bonds, if the price
is high" enough. They say Germany
will be made to pay? They hope. also,
that either the oriIinal or Subsequent
buyers will be Germans. The induce
ment is a heavy reduction in the actual
total of reparations to be paid to out
siders, and knowing the financial pow
er of Germany there are many who
believe this will be the solution. If
this is the case, it will be years before
Germany actually benefits. as the
bonds are to be issued by the Repara-
tions Commission, as Germany Is able
to pay interest and sinking fund on
them from her stated annual payments
of $500, 900, 900, plus twent g-six per
cent tax on her exports.
ToSthe investor the inducement will
be a 500 bond, five per cent bond,
marketed at perhaps fifty, backed by
the entire resources of the German

will be in proportion to his success in
satisfying himself that there will be
collectors willing and able to keep the
