PREPARATIONS BOARD
RETURNS TO PARIS
Hopes to Agree Upon Policy
This Week.

PARIS, Nov. IL ASSOCIATED Press) -
The Preparations Commission returned
to Paris this afternoon after two weeks
in Berlin without having reached de-
cision as to the best means Of saving
Germany from financial collapse. The
British, the Italian and, 1t is believed,
the Belgian delegates on the commission
are of the opinion that the report of the
experts submitted in Berlin forms the
soundest basis for the solution of fnan-
cial difficulties, that is. balancing the
budget and stabilizing the mark The
American observers also indorsed the
experts report as a possible solution.
Louis Barthou, the French chairUan,
however, with the support of his Gov
ernment, still believes that rigid control
of German internal finance should pre-
cede any other measures for assisting
Germany.
While not admitting failure. the dele
gates are frankly disappointed All but
the French say the French Government
must act. They point out that declara
tion by all the Allies that there would
be no effort to drain Germany's till
would go a long way toward assisting
her to her feet. This would entail a
moratorium of several years.
The British regard the situation as
most critical, both financially and politi-
cally. The Berlin Government Is not
considered a strong one, and should the
Allies fail to agree the British observers
feel that the present Ministry could not
continue. The Commission VIII begin a
series of meetings Monday in the hope
of reaching a decision by the end OF the

Austria Making Progress.

Upon visiting Vienna Prof. jerks was
pleased to find the Government and
financial circles employing measures of
self-help, while hoping for eventual as
sistance from without to effect perma-
nent stabilization. In place of the previ-
Gus apathy he found the Viennese busily
studying the introduction OF new gold
currency basis. having called in Swiss
and English experts.
Prof jerks was most favorably i'm
pressed with financial reforms in
Czechoslovakia. He found the Czechs
attacking the currency problem with the
grim determination OF a crusader. Peo-
pie had carried their jewels and gold to
the Governments till and thus had con-
verted half the floating debt into long
time bonds and reduced the note circula-
tion. DR.. Rasin. Minister of Finance,
was graphing with the problem of re-
storing the currency to double its pres
ent value.

Although positive results in repara-
tions and sterilization of the mark
have not been accomplished yet. Prof.
Jeremiah w. jerks is more confident
of the ability of the German people to
save themselves than when he first
came, at the invitation of the German
Government. to study the economic
situation here. Accompanied by other
experts, both American and British.
Prof. jerks has been travelling over
Europe inv sstigating conditions gen.
orally. He gees a hopeful sign in the
concern of all to find an understanding
for new credit abroad through deter
mination to effect financial reform at
home. Like other central European
countries, he told THE New York
HERALD correspondent, Germany must
initiate such refrom before expecting
outside aid.
Prof. jerks defined the essence OF
this reform as the establishment OF a
sound currency, ''the only cure for
economic ills; and the postponement
of remedies till reparations are set
tied will only make the final settle
mcnt more difficult.
Sees ViGor i'm Industry.
There are signs Of vigor In industry.
which is fairly prosperous despite the
financial disorder" he continued. Ger
many still holds important markets,
notably Jugoslavia, Turkey and Bel
gium. The Germans must follow the
straight and narrow path for their own
salvation. They must save and work
wherever possible exerting every en-
crgy. They should begin at once. Then
It is not improbable that the Germans
may manage to balance their domestic
budget
"Germany's recovery is conditional
upon two factors-a moratorium In rep
arations giving the Germans a breathing
spell and the moral support of the in
ternational banking world. 1t isn't
necessary for Germany to receive much
outside money. 1t will suffice If assur-
ance is given that Germany will receive
help in meeting merely her most urgent
needs to accomplish financial stability"
Prof jerks thinks the eight hour day
must go. With existing low wages and
reparations payments German workers
see no hope OF improving their lot.
Urges Ratio with Gold.
when j first visited Austria and Ger
many" said Prof jerks. II thought the
best method would be the introduction
OF a restricted gold currency issue along
side the paper. Such a method, however,
seemed premature In Austria, owing to
the small available gold supply and the
overwhelming demand for wages which
. n gold standard would evoke. II would
be preferable in the preliminary period
to fix merely definite ratio between
gold and paper and maintain stable ex-
change. Restoring the German currency
TO a gold basis would be easier and moro
rapidly accomplished.
First. it Is necessary to determine a
ratio between gold and paper. Assum-
Ing that Germany would take the cur
rent exchange rate as the basis for such
stabilization there is enough gold In the
Reichsbank already, with proper foreign

support, to put the mark upon a firm
basis. But were the mark given several
times greater a value than It has at
present Germany would need very large
foreign loans in order 10 stabilize her
own currency. This would involve heavy
rates of interest And then, such foreign
loans are not available.
THE mechanism of the restoration of
a gold basis is fairly simple. A ratio
once established, Germany could gradu-
ally take up the paper marks, issuing
gold ones in smaller denominations but
equal value. Germany possibly could
follow the Russian method of striking
out some ciphers.
Marks VIII Never Come Back.
Europe Is sug-ering with notions of
inflated finance. The French should, for
short time. be content to receive fewer
gold marks from Germany. 20 enable
her TO get into a position to pay more.
German property owners must console
themselves with the thougd that the
mark will never come back TO its old
value, and they must accept the con-
sequent loss OF part Of their fortunes.
Workers must consent to-Feceiving fewer
marks but not less than the real value
in purchasing power. Fiscal stabiliza-
uon In Germany Is practical, and II will
be of great benefit to all foreign coun-
tries. including France and the United
States"
Under the most advantageous circum-
stances, Prof. jerks declared, complete
withdrawal of deprecated paper could
not be accomplished In less than six
months. Preparations in their present
form, he insisted, were absolutely in
with any stabilzation of the
mark. AS for other central European
countries, it was impossible forN them
to restore peacetime wages so long as
the workers fostered the Illusion created
by the high figures on the paper money.
and therefore the impoverished States
could not risk too abrupt defation of
their fictitious currency.

FOR RECIPROCITY
Maryland Officials Believe

Seventeen States Place Charge on

PLAN MEETS APPROVAL

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, August 10.-That the
proposed 2-cent tax on gasoline in
Maryland will bring about reciprocity
between this state and the District
Of Columbia and will go far toward
solving the difficulties which have
been perpleXins officials with regard
to motor vehicles in tho two terri
tories, is the opinion generally held
by men in touch with the situation in
Baltimore.
John N. Mackall, chairman of the
state roads commission, is an enthus-
laStlc supporter of the idea. He be-
ileves that the question of The up
Keep of state roads can be solved in
TINS way. Mr.. MackaIl pointed out
tiiat seventeen states have already
adopted this plan, and said. that he
believed the other states will adopt it in
the near future. The Maryland tax
Will become effective January l, 1924.
The one drawback to the plan at
adopting it, is that the motorist liv
ing IN d state, which has the tax.
; but near the border line of a state
which has no tax, will be able to
buy his gasoline across the line and
escape the levy. Pennsylvania al
ready has placed a tax on gasoline.
however. so that one border line pos
slbility for Maryland is thus removed.
1T IL explained that large motor
| trucks from other states, which now
use the Maryland roads without con-
trlbuting to their upkeep, will be
caught by the proposed law. The fact
is that these trucks. which do Il
great deal to destroy the roads, will
be more heavily taxed because they
use much more gasoline than the
| average car. In addition. owners Of
| these vehicles will have to pay an
extra tax at the time of securing
| licenses
The definite plan of operation in
collecting the tax has not been
worked out as yet. but it is thought
| that it will be d tax at the source
! that is. the tax will be collected
! from the carrier who brings the
| gasoline to the filing station.
