ALSO II PER
CENT TAX ON
HER EXPORTS
Germany Is Invited to Send
Representatives to Con-
ference in London on
Feb. %, at Which the
Reparations Prog "a m
VIII Be Presented.

Paris, Jan. % (By the Associated
Press The allied supreme council to
day approved the German reparations
plan drafted by its special committee
last night
The plan provides for the payment
by Germany OF 226 billion gold marks
in - annual installments on a rising
scale beginning with payments of two
billion marks the first two years, and
in addition the payment of a II per
cent tax on German exports.
The plan was in the hands of the
printer early this afternoon and will
be signed when the council meets for
it's second session to-day, at o'clock
p. m.
The plan will be communicated to
the Germans in few days and they
will be invited to a conference on Feb.
% to consider the terms. In the mean
time the Brussels council experts will
resume its sessions Feb. Z.
The penalties provided in the repara,
tions plan are in general the same as
under the treaty of Versailles, includ-
ing both military and economic meas
ures.
Disarmament Plan Virtually Settled.
The report of the military commit.
tee on the disarmament of Germany
also has been virtually approved by the
council. 1t provides for the complete
disbandment of the Einwohnenwehr
and other so-called civil guards organ
izations not permitted under the
treaty of Versailles. The disbandment
must be completed by July l next |
The penalties for failure, Premier Bri- |
and stated, are stronger than those ar
ranged for at the Spa conference.
The council. at the final meeting this /
afternoon, will duscuss the Austrian +
problem and it is said to dispose Of /
all the questions on its program before
adjournment.
The conference of Feb. 2s. to which /
the Germans have been invited TO CON /
si1er the reparations terms, win be
held in London.
Examination of the reparations plan |
showed it provided that the ~ per
cent tax on German exports would ex
tend over the same period as the stip-
ulated reparation payments. Germany
is to be allowed an eight per cent cash
discount on payments made in advance
(The total of 226 billion gold marks
Of German reparation payments called
for by the plan would equal approxi-
mately $4,000, 100000 at normal ex-
change rates.

New York, Aug. 18-In another
day of uncertain markets the only
positive movement being further
fall in wheat to a price of l0c a
hushel below that of week ago, the
federal reserve statement was once
more the point of interest. 1t showed
that the very remarkable increase in
reserves. along with decrease in LA
bilities is continuing; the reserve ra-
ito both of the whole system and OF
the New York went to the years
highest mark.
While the gold holdings of the
II reserve banks have risen $24, ,300,-
600 during the week, rediscounts de-
creased $l3.600,000 and note circula-
ton $l7,l00,0O0. Last year, $44 ,000,-
600 was added to outstanding notes
during the first three weeks of Au-
gust and the expansion was ascribed
to preparations for the autumn
trade. In the corresponding period
this year the decrease has been
$30,000,000 and the total circulation
is now reduced by $67l 100000 from
this date on the 1920 and 1901 ,000, 900
from the high point of the after-war
period
Loans Reduced.
1t is actially smaller this week than
1t was when Germany signed the armistice
in November, 1918. The New York re-
serve bank has also reduced both loans
and note circulation for the past week
and this time has not only retained all
the imported gold, but has drawn Vs.
900 900 from other banks in the system.
Possibly reflecting the money market
transfers which caused this shifting Of
reserve money to New York, call money
rates declined below per cent for the
first time since August s. This mint Oh
easier money, following Wednesdays low
er rate for loans on time, probably mad
some influence on the stock market which
advanced in the later trading. after a
day Of purposeless movements. Largely
downward As a rule the days net
changes were made up Of fractional gains.
with a few advances running to l and 2
points.
German Marks Drop.
Recovery of exc in sterling, partly lost
before the close, was accompanied by
moderate net decline in German marks.
