GERMANY BXPECTED 10 PAY THE YEAR Export Surplus - Indicates Money Can Be Raised With- out Further Debts. -BY EDGAR ANSEL MOWRER. By Cable to The Star. ERLIN, Germany, April 17. Granted eommen:m stability, Germany ‘hls year will be able to, meet the plan. reparatiops payments and f-he terest on all” foreign debts— equalize the balance of payments—for the first time since the currency was stabilized, without further borrowing of any type. ‘This is the tremendous assumption to be drawn from the published figures for the export surplus for the month of March, ‘This figure, including 'deliveries in kind, amounts to about 263,000,000 marks (about $65.750,000). The total export surplus for the first three months of this year amounts to 480,000,000 marks (about $120,000,000). Last year's figure for-the same quarter was only 221,000,000 marks (55,250,000). Surplus Near $700,000,000. Assuming the same seasonal fu tions to hold as last year, this yea bllnnce payment should show a_total fus of nearly 2,800,000.000 mlrkx ($700,000,000), as gainst 1,600,000.000 marks ($400,000,000) Jast year. This is almost the identical sum commonly essumed by experts to be needed by the Germans. ‘The renarations payments amount to | about 1,800,000,000 marks ($450,000,000) annually and the interest on ‘private debts abroad is about 1,000,000,000 ($250,000.000). Granted the fact that German invisible items are active,\this would leave Germany in poscession of an active balance for payments. These rks, however theoretical, will not long remain so. They constitute an almost overwhelming argument against John Mavnard Keynes, Moulton, Maguire and other economists, who have conjured up the spectre of trans- fer difficulty as an impediment to repa- ration payments. Transfer Trouble Temporary. Orthodox economists have alwavs maintained that the transfer difficulty would be only temporarily possible, since reparation pavments from sound automatically create the needed exnort surplus. Th's fact is beine sp-edily demonstrated by events. .The chances now sre 10 to 1 thet either this or the following year will show the needed exports. This does not meen that the renara- | tions_carnot be certainlv pald at thfl, present height. It simnlv. shifts the problem from a mythologial one to the real one of collecting ,the necessary sums as taxes. | ‘This egain_is a psycholozical problem. The su d-manded are there. but will the peov'e in their present frame of mind sllow them to be collected ot a time when the government is struggline with the heavy burden of unemolovment :fl‘nd? tax returns are steadily diminish- Tmports Are Held Down. ‘This auestion only the future can de- cide, but it can be hoped that the pr ent " published . figures will ‘begin to silence the prophets of the transfer im- pos‘xeiblllty thesis who are muddying the | waters, There is reason to believe that the German government, confident lh|l’t. ‘,l; goods—has adopted & firm policy of furthering exports and throt- tling imports with this aim in mind and that the entire present policy of en- | couraging production of native grown foodstuffs is ly justified on this basis and some Germans are con- fident that should prosperity return their exports surplus can be driven high above the present figures.
