REPARATIONS BODY MEETS NEXT WEEK International Experts All Set for Sessions in Paris Paris, Feb. 6 (UP)—A determined effort to insure the economic re- Kabllitation of Europe will be mada Wwhen the international committtee of experts on reparations begins its ses- slons here next week. Indication that a conciliatory apirit will be shown to promote solution of the tremendous financial problom left by the ‘World War was given today when the United Press was informed that France will waive nearly $6,000,000,000 rights granted her by the Versallles treaty, The treaty provided that Germany must pay the French pension bill, estimated to ‘be 150,000,000,000 francs, France, it was understood, will de mand from Germany only restitu- tion for damage done to French property, and & sum equivalent 10 the French war debt to the United States and England. How Much snd How Loug? The problem faced by the ex- perts Is essentially to determine how much Germany can pay with- out being crippled. and how many yeara she would be allowed in which to pay it. The exact total of repara- tions has never been fixed, and i has become obvious that Ge: never could pay the staggering to- tal which the allied nations would like to get—about $30,000,000,000. Fconomic experts point out that Germany cannot be stabilized eco- nomically or industrially until she Knews definitely how much she has to pay and can regulate her finances ceordingly. .L\\'nr d’e’hu will be trcated as a corollary by the Europecan experts. whose governments, in effect, hold that their debis to the United States must be paid out of German repa- rations. The United States has held consistently that the debts are a separate issue, and are payable whother Germany provides sufficient reparations or not. Rhincl Also Problem A third problem is the evacua- fion of the Rhineland. A plan is heing considered to withdraw the troopa and substitute an allied com- mission of control in the Rhineland. ‘'he first plenary session of the experts will be held on Monday, after a preliminary session Batur- day. The United States is repre- sented only unofficially, Washing- ton having refused to designate a deitegation of experts. Any action taken, therefore, will not commit the United States government. The personnel of the delegations follows: Great Britain: Sir Josiah .Stamp and Lord Revelstoke. France: Emile Moreau and Jea Parmentier. Italy: Alberto Pirelll and Antonlo Buvitch. Belgium—Emile Francqul and M. Gutt. Japan—Kengo Mori and Vicount Takashi Aoki. Germany—Hjalmar Schacht and Albert Voegeler, United States—J. P. Morgan and Owen D.
