And so the discussion is resumed on November 4, when the following text 1s adopted: “The German surface warships, which shall be designated by the allies and the United States, shall forthwith be disarmed and thereafter interned in neutral ports or, failing them, allied ports.” There remains a grave question put forward by the French delegation. “he question of reparations. At the eeting of November 2 M. Clemen- ‘au starts the discussion + “I would like to return now to the uestion of reparations and of dam- mes. It would not be understood th us in France if we did not sert a clause in the armistice to this *ect. All I am asking for is the 1ition of three words, ‘reparations : damages’ without further com- - ent.” The following, Mr. Hymans discussion ensues: ‘Would that be a con- :lon of armistice?” M.

By it they un- derstand that compensations will be made by Germany for all dam- age done to the civilian popula- tion of the allies and their prop- erty by the aggression of Ger- many by land, by sea and from the | air. - Anked to Notify Germany. Mr. Wilson is at the same time asked to notify the German govern- ment that it can send a duly accred- ited plenipotentiary to Marshal Foch. who, assisted by ‘a British admiral, would be authorized to act in the name of the allied and associated governments.
