LLOYD GEORGE SAYS
CLAIM RIGHTEOUS
Advises Germany Accept Bill for
ReparatiOns as Formulated
Must be Enforced.

Birmingham, Eng, Feb. s. The
British prime ministers advice to
Germany is to accept the bill for
reparations as formulated by the
supreme council at Paris.
"Our claim is righteous one and
we must enforce it," Mr.. Lloyd
George declared in a speech here to-
day when he received the freedom
of the city of Birmingham.
The reply was to the speech in the
Reichstag recently made by DR.. Wal
ter Simons in which the German for
eign minister stated that the repara-
tions plan could not be accepted by
Germany as basis for territory for
negotiations.
"A great part of this speech,
the premier said, was based on
g. complete misconception of what
had been done at Paris. Such mis-
conception. could be. cleared up in
the forthcoming London conference.
If full bill were sent to Germany,
according to the Versailles treaty
she would be compelled to accept
1t but l fail to see how that could
improve matters and very respect
fully advise DR.. Simons to take the
Paris bill.
IF he has any alternative pro-
prosals, the Allies are prepared to
consider them SO long as the pro-
posals represent a bona fide effort
to liquidate the liabilities of Ger
many. We are willing that Germany
should pay under conditions which
best suit her own means, require
ments and resources, but if it is a
mere attempt to evade payment we
cannot put up with that
Mr.. Lloyd George called atten-
tion to the fact. that before the
last election he had emphasized that
Germany was morally bound to pay
for the wanton damage she had
inflicted, but one would only get
from debtor what the latter was
incapable of paying.
Germany, he said, had not vet
been taxed to the level of Great
Britain and France and it was intol-
cradle that country held respon-
sible for the war and which had suf-
fered no damage should have a
lighter burden than her victims.
Speaking at a banquet tonight,
the premier again referred to Ger-
many.
Exchanges will have to be sta
bilized. have an idea that Ger
many is not trying to stabilize
hers"
Germany, he said, " continues a
strong and powerful nation and she
should be made to- pay. He would
tell Dr.. Simons when he met him
shortly in London that Germany was
not making real effort to pay her
way.
Referring to home conditions. the
premier declared that the nation
simply was going through difficult
ties inevitable after a great war but
he did not doubt but what it would
weather the storm as ii did after
the Napoleonic wars.
Let us stand together" he adj
monished. 1T is unity that will
enable us to win. This is no time

company accurate weights. The
scale is provided with a dead rail
one foot from the live rail. The
weighing platform which is of the
articulated type is constructed with
"a inch steel girders, 10 pounds
to the foot, on top of which is
II inch steel channels riveted to
the girder covering cast iron rail
stands on which the rails are Sc
cured. The dead rails are mounted
on similar cast iron stands, set
one foot away from weighing the
rails. These stands are mounted
on pairs, II inch steel eye beams
which span the scale pit and rest
on the side walls of the founda-
ton. The cast iron stands support
ing the rails are located in OPEN
ings in the deck. but entirely free
from it. The top of the stands are
provided with hoods and the open
ings are protected by sheet iron
plashings secured to the decks
and carried up under the rails of
the rail stand.
This arrangement allows a full
movement of the platform and
stands and also ventilates the pit.
The deck is of rigid construct
ion, built on heavy joice, resting
on the side walls of the pit. The
deck floor is built of two thick
nesses of one inch tongue and
groove British Columbia pine and
is waterproofed with layers of
pitch, paper and burlap, finished
with a five-eight's asphalt surface,
covering the pit and extending
over the side and end walls. The
deck has a slope from the center
of one half inch to the foot, to al
low drainage. This is an improve
ment over all former attempts
achieved in the past for protecting
the vital parts of scale mechanism.
The weighing shelter is six feet
wide and sixteen feet long. This
weighing floor is three feet above
the foundation. The front of the
house is we'll lighted having three
windows and two bay windows. A
stove in the basement warns the
room and electric lights are to be
installed later.
