PLANS TO SETTLE
WAR CLAIMS MADE
Bond Issue Project Agreed
to by German and United
States Interests.

A comprehensive plan for early set
Element of the entire alien property
question and the war claims of Amer
lean citizens has been worked out by
the Treasury Department and repre-
sentatives of Germany and the United
States.
Based on the expected payment to
the United States from Germany of
PREPARATIONS under the Dawes plan and
payments for the cost of the Amer
lean Army of occupation in Germany,
the plan would authorize the issue of
5 per cent bonds, payable within 25
Years, in the sum of about
$3.50, 600, 900.
The bonds would be issued not by
the American Government. but by a
trustee, and would he guaranteed by
the American Government.
Payment by Bonds.
The bond issue would be against
payments from Germany, and would
be sold in the amount of about $50
100000 to the alien property custodian
and issued for the satisfaction of
claims in the amount Of about $780,
000,Q 900 TO Germans and 100000. 600
to American claimants.
The $50,000.000 cash derived from
sale of bonds to the alien property
custodian would be added to Il sum
of about $30.000.000, representing
earnings prior to March t, 1928, on
German property seized and held by
the United States, to constitute the
sum of about $50, 00O, 900 in cash for
satisfaction of American claims. The
balance of American claims would
be paid by the bonds in the amount
of 500 900 900.
The alien property custodian
would be authorized to return to the
German corporations and individuals
practically all of the property
which is still held in kind and jim
addition would pay with the bonds.
in the amount of about 100000, 900.
additional German claims.
Needs Congressional Approval
The plan would. of course. have to
be approved by Congress with legis-
lation.
The whole proposition would accom-
plish two things, it was set forth:
First, the German corporations and
individuals would get back their prop
erty or an equivalent value from the
alien property custodian: second. the
Americans who hold war claims
against the German government
would be paid either by cash or bond

committees representing both German
and American interests.
According to Secretary Mellon, the
proposal would not place any burden
upon the American Treasury or the
American taxpayer.
Should the Dawes plan work as well
as anticipated the payments from
Germany under it would eXtinguish
the bond issue within about seventeen
years.
