United States Stand.

This government has replied in
It's note IN effect.
I. The United States has as much
right to collect reparations under
its separate German treaty as the
allies have under the Versailles
treaty.
,. The Dawes agreement provides
for Americas equal right with the
allies to payment from the repara-
tons fund.
3- BY foregoing claims for pen
sions and personal allowances sucn
as the allies have made. the United
States has already reduced its claims
TO a bare minimum which is in
significant compared with the total
reparations.
The French ministry Of finance
has issued "A c0mmunique saying
that when France admitted the right
OF the American claims she did so
without consulting the other allies.
Some interpret this as "a denial Of
the fact that France agreed 10 the
justice OF the United States posi-
ton.
Americans here believe. however.
that the cOmmunique was drafted to

WASHINGTON. Dec. 12.-The
United States has dispatched a firm
note to Great Britain which will be

As a result Of the American stand
and attitude Of the other allies in

Britain is expected to ask that the
dispute be submitted 10 the world

The British case is based on
points:
