At the Landen conference between | Premiers Liey@ George and Briand the following plan will be suggested | by France: 1, The allies are to recemnise the bankruptey of Germany. 2.

GROAT WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.—German notification to the allies of her in- ability to meet fully her next repara- tions payments opened up today the possibility of flotation of German bonds in America, provided the allies guarantee them. ‘That Germany could realize $500, 000,000 in this way is the view of competent authorities on allled-Ger. man problems. To this government Germany's last note is no surprise. Authorities have seen her caming to the “end of h rope,” making it necesmry for allies, they believe, to take one of the following courses: 1. Immediate reduction of the reparations sum. 2. Granting of a breathing spell or moratorium on the January and Feb- ruary payments. 3. Opening of credit channels to Germany. but financial interests would only hearken to such a method were the allies to guarantee repayment of the bonds.
