ton OF the treasury,
AS FOR the German nationa Is
whose property is TO be restored, It
Is believed there would be about an
equal division of cash and property
on the one hand and the new bonds
on the other.
Mr., Mellon believes that by 80 d.
viding the securities In the distribu-
ton proposed there would be no dis
elimination, and nationals OF both
governments would be cared for
promptly instead OF waiting on the
slow machinery OF annual payments
through reparations and army oc-
cupation costs, The secretary has
calculated that the bonds would DO
automatically retired in about II
years.
Technically the American govern
ment would In effect waive It's right
TO receipt OF the reparation and
cost payments In order that the ma
tionals might obtain their money.
