President Harding. Mrs. Harding; AMERICANS GIVEN PLACES OF IMPORTANCE ON BOARD PARIS. July 25. While the United States' government- ha3 limited its activities in l the re parations embroglio to an offic ial observer, and, since the Ver sailles Treaty has watched the problem as it became more intri cate day by day, there has been a little group: of Americans- here for the past four years who, have taken anything-but a minor part in the vast-Work of the re para tion commission. " Tnis unneraided little group constitutes the staff of account ants with the commission, and is headed by George P. Auld, form erly an officer of the United States navy, who holds the post of Accountant General. He 'is responsible directly to the com mission for the completeness and accuracy of all financial records having to do with the receipt and disbursement of money and com modities handed over by Germ any. " - .. Position Individual The position ' of Mr. Auld with the commission is entirely, Indi vidual, as he has no connection with the United States or any oth er government. His staff of about 20 Americans comes under the same classification. ------ i The" task of the accountancy department la one of the most dif ficult of the; commission's work. To strike its daily and monthly balances, it must deal with ships, livestock, abandoned war mater ial, rolling stock, coal and coke, dyestuffs.-and a score of other commodities, aa well as the actual cash payments of German gold marks. When the balance sheet has been tallied, it is necessary to render . the totals " in ' malks. pounds, francs, lires and dollars. The commodity valuations have Been made in nearly all the cur rencies of Europe, as well, as in dollars. " ' When currency payments are made, they Are immediately con verted to gold through the 'dollar Tate, wtith i-oughly jfoutt" marks equalling one dollar. The New York exchange rate for 20 or 25 countries by cable each day, and with these rates as a basis, daily. weekly aarid monthly parities be tween the 'various currencies are established. At the end of each month, a c6mplete report la made, showing the amount Germany has paid to date and how It has been distributed among the Allies. Much of this work is done by the American staff. One com putes the value of coal from the Ruhr; another determines the worth of live-stock in francs, dol- ars and pounds; another reduces locomotives to marks and then to-Hres, while another one quotes ducks, geese and chickens in dol lars, guilders and crowns. At the end of 1922, the account ancy department under Mr. Auld had whipped the miles of figures into an Intelligible report,: show ing that Gerjmany had turned over to the Allies a grand total of $1,982,000,000. "Jf tn"" BUW $454,000,000 was in cash; $889.- 0-00,000 in . commodities, and 639,000.0i00 In state .properties of ceded territories. Transportation Figures The ships -she had parted with totalled tw and a half million gross tons, valued at 1177.000,000 Of rolling-stock she had delivered 4.532 locomotives and -12.000 wagons, worth $207,000,000. The livestock included "T29.000 head, exclusive ef poultry. This was given a valuation . of mu.uuu, 000. The- jsoal.-coke and lignite delivered exceeded 48 million tons worth $237000,000. the dyestuffs totalled 23,000 tons, valued at $15,000,000. and the miscellane ous commodities, too numerous to rlasRify. were determined to .be worth $131,000,000. The selection of Mr; Auld to head the Important accountancy bureau of - the reparations com mission was made after he had spent several months in Paris as assistant financial advisor to tpe Peace Commission.
