the Government of the United States

the Versailles peace treaty with the
task of seeing that Germany meets
her war obligations to the allies. to
investigate Germany's financial and
economic position. This he would do

reviewing the situation from the
standpoint of an American business
man, made an earnest plea for the
use of common sense and for prac-
