THE GERMAN “INDEMNITY.” from Paris Advices y that the German peace delegates show a gen- eral willingness to agree to the Allied terms, except that! they insist they will not pay an indemnity. This determination may not be so It is largely a serious as it sounds. matter of definition. By “indemnity the Germans are said to mean ‘“‘puni- tive damages,” a payment made by way of fine or punishment. said to be willing to pay any reason- able sum that is put down as ‘‘repara- tion,” that is, compensation for com- putable damages inflicted by them in the course of the war. This seems to be somewhat of a quibble. It is drawing pretty fine dis- The Century Dictionary “indemnity” as ‘“compénsa- tinctions. defines tion for loss, damage or injury sus- tained,” which seems to be just about what most people, including, the Ger- mean when they mans, speak of “reparation.” But after all, it matters little what All the will technical terms are used. sibly pay equa] the actual “loss, damage or in- they on the If the Huns prefer the mild there In any event, the They will pay all that can be squeezed out of them.
