SCHACHT IS SILENT AS ALLIES ASSESS BILLIONS WAR DEBT (Continued From First Page.) accounted for in allied circles by the fact that whatever may be the out- come of the efforts to settle the vexed question of reparations, the demands upon Germany will be much redyced from the $33,000,000,000 which the reparations commission fixed in 1922 as the total the Reich must pay. How much of that original sum will be reduced, the experts themselves were unable to tell, because the amounts presented today as the creditors’ de- mand, are still subject to discussion or bargaining and they are likely to be reduced still further since the Germans are felt certain to make counter pro- posals which would call for a compro- mise between the reparations debtor 1 and creditors. Plans of Germany. The German ideas as to the final neighborhood of $8,000,000,000. The more than that and as nearly as can be estimated on the known elements in the situation will ask somewhere be- tween $10,000,000,000 and $12,500,000,000 present value, payable with interest in 58 annuities. The interest, however, is a variable quantity, because the annuities are so fixed as to meet in advance as far as possible and to foresee variations in Germany's economic situation. In fact, there is no interest properly speaking, but simply a series of annuities which if valued at their present worth, less interest for deferred payment, would amount to $10,000,000,000 or $§12,500,- 000,000 cash today. Instead of fixing varying rates of interest, amounts are led to the annuities to cover what would be demanded in interest for de- ferred payments. The manner in which the total amount will be distributed remains a secrat, although there appears no doubt that the annuities up to the end of 37 years are higher than for the following 21 years. This would indicate that the allies have followed to this extent the German desire to end the principal pay- ments as soon as possible. The lighter sums run along to the end of 58 years— that is to say, to the end of the period for payments to the United States un- der the debt settlement. It was said in expert circles, however, that no special significance should be attached to that | ¢ has had more to do with that problem | fact. Versailles Total. The grand total of $125,000,000,000 claimed by the allies from Germany prior to the conference at Ver- sailles seemed out of all proportion to the delegates when they finally dis- cussed the figures over the conference tables. It was decided to leave calcu- lation of the total to the reparations commission. In June, 1920, the allies discussed the question again and reduced their claims to $67,000,000,000. The respective shares of the creditors were fixed at that time as _follows: France, 52 per cent; Great Britain, 22 per cent; Italy, 10 per cent; Belgium, 8 per cent, with smaller amounts to other creditors. Less than a month later the allles, at Spa, considered a total of $60,000,- 0,000, payable in 42 annuities, out, | o, 00 after the Germans had announced in March, 1922, that they would default in the payment due on reparations May 1, the reparations commission fixed the final total at $33,000,000,000 (132,000,- 000,000 gold marks). Move for Moratorium. Three months later, however, Ger- many informed the allies that she could not continue the payments pro- vided for in the ultimatum and asked for a moratorium. This question of a moratorium was to dominate repara- tions problem for some time, with the British supporting the Germans. In January, 1923, Germany, who had offered $25,000,000,000 at the peace conference, reduced her offer to $7,500,- 000,000, at the same time requesting an international conference to fix her capacity to pay reparations. The result of this demand for an in- ternatiorial conference was the organ- ization of the first Dawes committee, which, while omitting to mention the total that Germany must pay, fixed the annuities payable at 1,000,000,000 gold marks to begin with, pm‘re&slvely to increase to 2,500,000,000 gold marks in the fifth year of the operation of the lan. " ‘The of the second Dawes committee, at which the allled dele- | gates now have agreed am them- selves on the total of their claims, was called in response to a general desire of all the nations involved to make a final settlement of the reparations problem in the interests of the financial stability ‘The compromise on reparations was ereiutiation of 5 part of the repara: me a repara- tions debt and the final establishment of the total that to pay, which had been in scheme amount are well known to be in the| allies it is known, will certainly demand | SECRECY SHROUDS “HOOVER MEETING | President May Have Discuss- ed Reparations With Stim- son, Melion and Mills. | President Hoover summoned Secre- tary of State Stimson, Secretary of the Treasury Mellon and Undersecretary of the Treasury Mills to the White House yesterday for an unscheduled confer- ence, the note of which was kept secret. While no cfficial comment was forth- coming, either from the White House, State Department or Treasury, it was | understood tha% the conference con- cerned the agresment that has been reached in Paris on Germany’s war debt | to the allies. & Secretary Stimson’s summons to the he was compelied to cancel his usual press conference within a few minutes of the hour the newspaper men were to assemble. Col. Stimson did not a range another hour to see thé col spondents and declined to be inter- viewed in his office on any subject. Secretary Mellon and Undersecretary Mills were equally uncommunicative. I'm Alone Not Discussed, The only information that could be obtained at the White House was that the conference had nothing whatever to do with this Government’s dispute with Canada over the sinking of the rum-runner I'm Alone. A White House attache sald this internaticnal problem did not come up at all, but sealed his lips thereafter, refusing to either con- firm or deny whether the President called his State Department and Treas- ury chiefs to the parley to work out what attitude the United States would take on a further cut in reparations. Deductions based solely on the of- fices of the conferees, however, pointed strongly to the reparations problem. ‘When President Hoover turns to final consideration of reparations, Secretary Stimson and Secretary Mellon are the c;b;:et om;?lrs who will be most helpful im, while Undersecretary Mills he Treasury Department official i'h’i than any other person in that depart- m;n; m tbl(r,p;ellon. im] ‘ation quarters were puzzled tonight, however, to find a pmeans whereby President Hoover can reduce the United States' claim against Ger- many below its present figures, which admittedly are very small now. Press fl:;pltcflhfia d!rom Paris indicate that the other led powers have agreed upon substantial cuts and atrons‘l‘y inthr?-te that some similar action may be taken by the United States, if the unofficial American members of the reparations committee of experts, J. Pierpont Mor- gan and Owen D. Young, have not al- ready been advised to that effect. $240,000,000 Is Due U. S.

F. of L. Head Asked to Act . in Dispute by Contractors and Builders. An urgent appeal for arbitration of the demands of several building trades {unions for wage boosts, said to range | in some cases as high as 10 and 20 per i cent above present scales, was carried | yesterday by local contractors and | bullders directly to Willlam Green, | fle&flmt of the American Federation of Spokesmen for the buiding trades , employers’ section of the ‘Builders and i Manufacturers’ Exchange and the | Washington Operative Builders' Asso- | clation, in & personal letter dispatched to President Green, pointed out what they are convinced is a situation of real seriousness which they believe might even result in tying up the Federal, municipal and private building pro- grams, with loss, to the public, union workers and the contractors and build- . Green was petitioned to use his good offices to bring about arbitration. The builders and contractors, it was stated, are wiliing to arbitrate, but union leaders in the several building trades have refused to submit the matter to arbitration, it was added. Fears are expressed that if‘a peaceable means of settling differences are not provided, strike may result. 2 Cite Lack of Reasons. Further, the contractors and build- ers declare, the several unions in de- manding pay boosts have assigned no jreason for high wages, And while it ,already is declared to be “an almost impossible thing” for a Government worker in Washington to buy a house on a salary of about $5 a day, a plumber is paid $11, a hoisting engineer, $12, and a stonemason $13 for a day's work. Recently iron workers employed on the new Internal Revenue Building, being erected to the south of the Post Office Building, won an increase in pay and later formal demands for pay in- creases were repol to have been filed with the contractors here by five other building trades union workers. Also, it is declared in the letter to Mr. Green, some iron workers on' other Jobs in Washington now are “on strike” to obtain pay increases. Where the |iron workers are idle, they lay the trouble to a “lockout,” however. The letter to Mr. Green was signed president of the by W. B. Putnam, Association; H. Concrete Contractors 3 C. McKnew, vice president of the E. J. Murphy Co., paint dealers; F. F. Gillen of the Charles H. Tompkins Co., con- tractors; Edwin H. Rosengarten, vice president of Davis, Wick & Rosen- garten, contractors and builders; Rob- ert W. McChesney, president of the Electrical Contractors’ Association, and Rufus 8. Lusk, executive secretary of the Operative Builders’ Association of Washington. Last week, at & mass meeting of about 200 contractors and subcontractors, the employers voted to resist pay increases, but the next day spokesmen for build- ing trades unions professed to be un- affected by this action and indicated they felt the position taken by the local | contractors was of littlc importance. | Local contractors and builders, how- ever, declared that increases won by union workers on present operations will have a much more serious effect, in increasing the cost of future operations as well as threatening to tie up the ad- ditional Federal and municipal opera- tions for which contracts as yet have not been let. It is pointed out that the private construction operations along in ‘Washington amounts to about $50,000,~ 000 a year. g Text of Petition. The petition to President Green says in relation to the Federal building pro- gram that “An increase in wages might just be the one thing that would cause this program to be stopped. You know full well how some determined members of Congress can stop almost anything, Government was building at the wrong time and that costs later may be lower, such Congressmen might be able to stop for the present the entire development of the Triangle and the new Municipal Center. “However, as serious as that might be,” it adds, “consider what may hap- pen to our school building program. A. L. Harris, municipal architect, stat- ed at a public meeting of empll:nm on April 11 that because appropriations for schools are based on present labor costs that some schools might not be built if these increases were granted. And every one knows of the pressing need | for more District schools. “Even though this were not so, if there are strikes the work on these schools will stop and they may not be ready on schedule time.” In conclusion, the petition says: “We are perfectly willing and we de- sire to arbitrate the ‘That is the reasonab] of settling any dispute, but your men refuse to arbitrate. If there is no arbi- inconveniences and tremendous loss to the community, and labor is the greatest. loser of all.” Represenatives of the Washington Building Trades Council have indicated that the council’s executive board, at at meeting tomorrow, may consider the resolutions of the Builders and Manu- facturers’ Exchange, in which the ex- change announced its members d refuse the wage increase demands. ‘The resolutions were formally trans- mitted to the council, which repre- sents 19 organizations of building tradesmen. 13 IN GAME HELD UP. $1,500 Cash and $800 Jewelry Taken by Four Bandits.
