reference to the payment OF repara-

dress Wednesday night by Walter

to members Of the council OF the
Nebraska Bankers association at Ho-
tel Fontenelie.
rhe Chicago banker based his
premise on an analysis OF conditions

hat I'm the most favorable year, 1913.

these three billion the seven billion
which the Mckenna committee esti.
mated Germany had In foreign bal
ances abroad and foreign currency

In other words, the net loss 10 Ger.

The speaker contepded that the

require an annual payment by Ger
many Of $500 million gold marks,
requirement which that country
could not meet.

whole international situation has
