Proposal in Effect.
PARTICIPANTS TO AFFIX
SIGNATURES TONIGHT

nieal Was Essential to Opera
ton of Moratorium.
Rr the Asrnciatad Press

By the Associated Press.
LONDON. August IL Complete
agreement has been reached on meas
ures designed to make the Hoover rep
arations holiday plan effective, it was
announced today in an official COM
munique issued by the Committee of In
ternational Experts, charged with dove
failing the Hoover plan and the Young
plan.
Hugh S. Gibson, American Ambsssa-
dor to Belgium, represented the United
States as an observer at this commits
sion's meeting. Those who participated
will sign an agreement at the treasury
Office this evening
Complete agreement was reached, -
the communique said, "as regards the
detailed measures required to give eff
feet to President Hoover's proposal in
case of payments by Germany under
The Hague agreement of January 20,
1880.
Will Sign This Afternoon.
Recommendations of the experts in
regard to suspension of these payments
of Australia, Canada, Czechoslovakia.
Greece. India, New Zealand, Portugal,
Rumania and South Africa. and a for
NAL protocol to give effect to these rec
concentrations will be signed at the for
eign Office on behalf of those govern
ments this afternoon.
Agreement also was reached in re-
gard to detailed measures Tor suspen-
sion of interallied war debts to the
United Kingdom, France and Italy of
payments under agreement with Czecho-
slovakia.
Agreement also was reached on the
principle that payments due by Hun
gary under the Paris agreement of April
20. 1880. and payments by Bulgaria
under The Hague agreement of Janu-
airy 90, 1880, should be suspended dur
ing the year ending June 80, 1882.
But in this case certain adjustments
must be made. as complete suspension
Of these payments might result in sus-
pension Of certein classes of payments
to individuals which under President
Hoover's proposal were not to be af-
fected.
Accordingly the committee agreed
in principle that all payments to funds
"A and B under the agreement signed
at Paris on April 90, 1890, should be
continued during the Hoover year.
Plan Definitely in Effect.
Negotiations are continuing in re-
gard 70 adjustments required in the
case OF Bulgaria"
With the signing of the protocol this
evening President Hoovers proposals
may be considered as having gone
definitely into effect, although as a
matter of fact they have been eff
fective Professionally since the middle
of July, when German reparations
installment fell due.
The experts have been working for
three weeks under the presidency of
Sir Frederick Leith-RoSS. They as
sembled before the recent seven-power
conference here and during that meet
ing their deliberations lost some of
their significance, but their work, pure
ly of technical nature. was essential
to operation of the hoover plan.
