The premier is convinced that in
taking a percentage of the values
OF exports a cue solution has been
found. 1T is not a tax on exports, -
he said. "but a measure of paying

No Tax Placed
He explained that no TAX was
placed on exports as such. The Ger
man government would be required
10 take the total value of the ex-
ports and pay the equivalent of 20
percent into the relarations fund,
but the percentage could be paid
