New-York tribune., 1921-03-07

Simons admitted the soundness Of tn.
principle of having the payments vary
with German prosperity, but he main
tanned that no payment beyond the
$500 100000 as described above was
possible for Germany.
This was natural contention on
his part, but with real freedom to
bring about industrial prosperity, it
was probably an undcrstatcment of
Germany's capacity.
The Germans calculate that they
could borrow abroad G4O0 900 900 If the
loans were issued free Of taxes in the
lending countries. This stipulation is
clearly impossible for the Allies to
grant, because it is beyond their power
to induce other governments to remit
taxation. Otherwise the suggestion
shows the means whereby the whole
question Of indemnity payment is
capable of solution once reasonable
capital value and rate Of interest is
agreed upon.
Having acknowledged the debt to the
Entente and been promised a reason
able interest rate for making payments,
it is probable that within a few years
Germany could borrow from sympa-
thizers in neutral nations at lower
rates OF interest, so anticipating pay

ments and relieving herself Of the
financial burden.
The whole atmosphere Of the confer
cnce only emphasizes the desirability
Of taking the whole matter out Of the
hands of the politicians and entrust-
ing it to a business committee with
full power to make business ar
rangement.
Enforced payment is obviously i'm
possible, except in quite a small
AMOUNT. If the Entente wants a sub
stantial indemnity, it is obtainable
only through an agreement.
There was no improvement in the
trade outlook during the week, bring
ing into greater relief the fact that
the Continental position depends upon
the result of the present conference
and luckily the door is still open for
an agreement.

Humble Oil to Offer
$25, 900, 900 in Notes

Public offering is announced to-day
by J. P. Morgan e. Co of an issue Of
S25.o0o,000 Humble Oil and Refining
Company two-year 7 rer cent gold
notes at 90 and interest. The notes
constitute the company's sole funded
debt and the proceeds will be used in
part to reduce current Indebtedness
and to provide additional working
capital to enable it to continue to pur-
chase current production of oil from
its customers in the various fields
This will insure continuing production
by such customers and regular sup
ply of crude oil for the company.
Earnings of the Humble Oil and
Refining Company, control of which is
held by the Standard Oil Company OF
New Jersey, amounted to slightly less
than sl1 100000 in 1920. Against this
figure the company charged for es-
timated depreciation and Federal taxes
approximately So 500 900, leaving bal
ance Of more than $7.4o0,000 applicable
to the S25 100000 stock

Door Still Open for Real Agreement
On German Indemnity, Says Withers
Difference Between Allied Demands and Former
Foes Proposals Not So Wide as 1t Appears:
Business Arrangement Is Called Necessary

gated the whole amount of payments in
the next forty-two years and so pro-
duced q sum of 911 900, 100000.
The Germans proceeded to convert
this sum into present values by dis
counting future payments on the basis
of 8 per cent.
This brings down s11,O0o,o 100000 to
s2,ooo 100000, from which the Germans
subtract sl,ooo,ooo,o ,ooo the amount
which, according to their estimates.
they have already paid.
There is no denying that this inter-
probation of the indemnity is much
more favorable to Germany, but the
variance from the Paris terms is not 40
wildly fantastic as appears at first
sight.
German System Unfair
The German proposal to arrive at
the present value Of the Allies claims
by discount Of per cent capitalzes
the claims too low. since the Allies had
stipulated that anticipatory payments
should be calculated on basis Of S
per cent at first, gradually descending
to per cent. This change Of rate
was favorable to Germany, but not too
enormously, and might have been con-
sidered reasonable if Germany was
prepared to pay interest on the out
standing sum at the same rate, but the
German proposals overreached them
selves by demanding the 8 per cent
rate to reduce the capital claim and
then proposing to pay only 8 per cent
as interest
AS to the 81 900, 900, 900 tho Germans
alleged to have been paid, they sug-
gested naming join committee Of ex-
perts to agree on the value Of the pay
ments made
Moreover, the stipulation that the
proposed payments would be possible
only if Silesia we're retained as Ger
man territory and German trade be
left unhampercd by all restrictions
was not unreasonable, since the power
to pay clearly depends to some extent
upon these conditions.

LONDON, March e.-Negotiations at

pay nearly resulted in lamentable
iiasco and the danger Is by no means
removed that the result may plunge
Europe into continuance Of the &C
centuated after thc-war chickering's. If
not renewal Of actual military op-
erations.
As usual in this tragic position, the
world had to take dose of farce aris-
ing because the so-called statesmen
now handling international affairs are
not sufficiently we'll instructed in the
clements of arithmetic to recognize
the enormous effect produced by COM
pound interest in altering the value of
? given sum when considered as pay
able to-day or thirty or forty years
hence
Apparently the Allies demanded
100000, 900 or more, while Ger
many offered to pay s1.500,000,0 600.
Consequently the enormous difference
between the two sums made the Ger
man proposals appear to be mere inpu-
dence, and they were Immediately re-
]ected by the Allied representatives.,
who presented an ultimatum saying
that Germany must accept the Paris
terms or propose satisfactory equiv
alent by tomorrow, or the Allies
would undertake measures to enforce
payment, etc
Difference Much Smaller
Th. fact Is the differences between
the Allied demands put forward a the
Paris Conference and the German pro-
posals put forward at London are
really much smaller than they appear
on their face when distorted by COM
pound interest. This is the reason:
