SAY GERMANY COULD PAY

Former Enemy's Ability

PARIS, April 11.-(By Associated
Press.) The economic stats at
tached to the reparation commission
are keeping books on the costs to
Germany on the one hand and to
France and Belgium on the other OF
the occupation of the Ruhr. Compli-
Gated studies are being made Of the
direct and indirect losses to both the
economic belligerents and to their

The French experts are particularly
Interested in Germany's cash OUTLAWS
for her program of passive resist
ance. These are dealt with under
several main headings, such as her
average monthly imports of 1000, 900
tons of coal at from 80 to 35 gold
marks a ton, or roughly $4,000, 900
gold marks.
Other items are the payment OF
half wages to some hundreds of
tt ousandS of workmen in the Ruhr,
the losses to the German export trade
and the losses to Germany's internal
trade.
These calculations satisfy the
French that the German government
is spending in actual cash abroad,
and in her reduced income of for
eign monies sufficient to have met
the cash separations payments under
the Cannes agreement of 10000 900

The conclusion is reached by these
experts that, if Germany were to
