GERMANY CANT
PAY IT'S FIFTY
MILLION GOLD
Debt Due July Is, Payment
Would Expose Reichsbank.
CHIEF ALLIES WILL
HOLD A MEETING
Berlin Sending Delegates. Marks
Sell Five for Cent.
tsy Tho Associated press,

PARIS, July "a special meeting OF
the chief allied powers to discuss the
situation in Germany was foreseen in
official circles today after confirmation
of the report that Germany is sending
ENJOYS to request a two year moratorium
on cash indemnity payment.
BERLIN, July 9-The german govern
ment has started an action which in
cidentaly may result in absoIving Ger
many from meeting the payment of 5O,-
100000 gold marks required by the allies
on July Is, in sending DIR. Fischer, chair
man OF the German war debt commission
and Herr Schroeder, under secretary of
the ministry of finance, to Paris to con-
fer with the reparations commission on
the question of readjusting the present
schedule Of gold payments.
Can't Pay Money.
Although this move is considered a
temporary expedient with the prime pur-
pose of influencing the deliberations at
Paris official financial circles would well
come this revision as indicating gen.
eral solution of the present schedule Of
gold payments, which Chancellor Wirth
has declared Germany is in nos position
to carry. out, particularly since the re-
cent collapse of German exchange.
Would .sExpose" Bank.
Officially 1t was stated today that the
Reichsbank was technically in a position
to deliver go, o0o, 900 gold marks next
week but that their release from bank
vaults would badly expose the instftu-
tion whose officials believe that this
available gold fund shall be devoted to
steadying the mark at home and abroad.
Five for Cent.
While official financial circles decline
to say if the present mission to Paris is
a direct outcome of the conferences now
going on in Berlin, banking officials be-
lieve that the progress which has marked
these deliberations in the last few weeks
has contributed materially to encoHrag-
ing the German government in its de-
cisions to approach the reparations COM
mission at a time when marks are sell
ing for less than five for one cent.

Moving in a
Hopeless Circle

Both sides appear to realize that they
have been moving in 81 hopeless circle
In the long run, by taking up seized
property under the classified headings.
It is hoped to reconcile the two divergent
viewpoints, for It seems certain that Eu-
rope will not supply credits without res
titution, and the Bolshevil1i will not grant
any form of restitution without getting
credits in return.
The immediate problem is to find a
compromise which would have the faoili-
ties of the communists and satisfy the
demands of the western countries, which
hold property rights to be sacred.

THE HAGUE. July 9.-The experts
conference on Russian problems has held
on through a great crisis. but is not yet
considered out of danger.
All the delegates as they sit today in
their icy hotels at Scheveningen are
unanimous in this view but their depress
ion, which is very evident, undoubtedly
is influenced by the persistent absence
of sunshine, the equally persistent biting
North Sea winds and interminable rains
The danger arises from the attitude
Of the Russian delegation towards resti-
tuition of confiscated property and promi-
nent European representatives frankly
declared today that unless the Soviets
made many concessions from the intran-
sigeant policy announced Friday. it would
be quite useless to continue the confer
ence.

Russians Plan
No Restitution at All

"Russia's plan for restitution is not
restitution at ALL" said one gloomy dele
gate today. THE Bolsheviki have no in
tention to restore property but plainly in
dicate that they will distribute conces-
sions, including appropriated property to
the concession hunters who have the
most money If the former owner hap
pens to have ample funds to develop his
factories or mines, he has good chance
of getting them back; otherwise, no."
There are some indications that the
Russian leaders are talking for commun-
istic home consumption and that while
insisting that restitution is impossible
they will in practice consent to arrange
ments for virtual restoration, without
seerning to do SO

English Remain
DOggedIy Optimistic

The English delegation remains doggedly
optimistic; it believes that a suitable
compromise will be found on the problem
of the property of foreigners in Russia.
The Italians also are hopeful.
The pessimistic groups think that the
Russians do not care whether the con-
ference succeeds or collapses, as they
will hope to make advantageous seperate
agreements with different financial
groups and thereby obtain immediate
credits. for which they consistently clam
or and which the conference may long
postpone, even if a general accord is
reached.
Such is brief summary Of the situation
as the conference is about to start an
other week Of active negotiations.

Want to. Know
Who Holds Debt

The Russians complained again today
of the refusal of the delegates of the
non -communistic countries to grant in
formation asked in the famous question
aire of thirteen points concerning for
eign holdings of the Russian debt. The
most significant question was the demand
for information as to the social situation
Of the bond holders, his profession and
annual revenue and the general financial
situation of his family. Another sought
to determine how each holder had ac-
quired his bonds, whether by purchase
or inheritance. The Bolshevlki further
wished enlightenment as to whether the
bonds were kept on simple deposit or
utilized as security for credits.
After seeking exact information con-
corning the amount and character OF the
bonds the thirteenth point insisted upon
the presentation of documentary proof
that all questions were being answered
truthfully.
The European delegates refused COM
pliance, not only because they considered
the question irrelevant. If not imperti-
nent, but also bcause to answer them
would neoessitate stupendous national
inquiry. with months Of labor and great
expense.
Some of the questions created consider
able alarm, as indicating desire on the
part of the Russian delegation to apply
communistic theories In all their dealings
in foreign lands. The issues involved are
so staggering that tho European groups
are beginning to realize the difficulties
and responsibilities Of their task.
