Solution.

under which an American com
mission would determine how
much Germany should be re-
auired to pay the allies in repair
ations has emerged from the Ell
fort to find a way for extending
American aid toward solving the
economic troubles Of Europe.
Although, thus far, discussions
of the proposal have been kept
outside the formal channels OF
diplomacy, the exchange OF
views has developed "a thorough
understanding in authoritative
circles that the United States,
Great Britain and Germany are
willing to assent to the creation
of such commission.
The plan now is before Premier
Poincare of France and he is ex-
pected to make his decision after
he has concluded a series of con-
ferences with industrial leaders
of his own country and Germany.
1t is assumed the plan will be
communicated later to all the ma
tions Interested in reparation
payments.
Officials Of the Washington
government, who, from the be-
ginning of the present discus
sions, have been unwilling to do
more than hint way was being
sought to render aid toward d
European settlement, today re-
fused to discuss the plan for an
