GERMAN LOAN PLAN BEFORE DELEGATES Tnter-Allied Conlerence Discusses Saleguards Offered By The Associated P Lendon, July The guarantees provided for safeguarding the German loan with which it is proposed to launch the Dawes' reparation plan were the chief topie of discussion among the delegates to the inter-al- lled conference tod The discussions between the financial delegates of the conference and the British and Amer. fean bankers who are being relled upen to take up the bulk of the pro- posed $200,000,000 loan, which began fmmediately with publication of the findings of the committes on defaults and penalties, were continued, The sufficlency of the financial safe- guards which this report proiides was & question which overshadowed every other issue In the discussions amongst the delegat: financiers and diplo- matie experts, While the official delegations insist- ed upon maintaining a note of aptim- fsm and while the bankers remained silent, there were unmistakable evi. dences that the financlers wera dis- satisfled with the recommendations of the committee regarding the question of Germany's default, \While official quarters were not in- clined to regard the bankers' attitude as raising a crisis, It avas recognized that this reassertion of the bankers' proper demand for security for the proposed loan must be met with pro- per guarantees since it was generally recognized that successful launching of the Dawas’, plan depended in the first place upon flotation of the loan. The British attitude has always been that it is*af. po.use ta prepare elaborate plans dependent upon the loan unti] it is clear that the loan is certain” to be forthcoming. Every effort is being made in the discussion between the conferees and the bankers to obtain the bankers' ap- proval of, the scheme, While the general feeling regarding an ultimate agreement is still optimis- tie, it cannot be denied that the situ- ation 18 not quite so bright today in view of the differences which have arisen since the committee’s was made public last night. TIn this ennnection, it is emphasized that after all the committee’s report is tentative and, of course, has no binding effect until it is ratified by the plenary con- ference and embodied in the formal protocol, The vagueness of the article under which France might insist upon her right to separate action in the event of Germany's defanlt is a principal stumbling block. In the background thers always appears the figure of Raymond Poincare, former French premier, as one of the most powerful critics of the conference and the French have to keep this in mind in connection with any concessions they may grant regarding French rights under the Versailles treaty. 1t is understood that the American bankers are most frank in their dis- satisfaction with the present security for the loan although outwardly they are maintaining a ‘non-committal at- titude. In the conversations between the conferees and the bankers, it is learned that some consideration has been given to a proposal accredited to the Belglan delegation under which the reparation commission would be further ‘Americanized by placing un- der it not only the agent general of reparations and the representative of the loan bondholders but also another American who ‘would be the represen- tative of.the bankers. It is under- stood that this proposal-is tentative and that the exact status.of. these offi- cials under the reparation commission has not been definitely worked out. The task before the conference of dissipating the doubts and anxieties which the bankers feel about the se- curity for the German loan is increas- ed by two conisderations.
