What virtually amounts to a modi fication of tho reparations clause will be discussed in the form of proposed minimum and maximum totals of reparations. Tho Trench probably will not nc ccpt a lower minimum than 100 bil lion marks gold, but are likely to consent to fixing the minimum repa ration payable bv Germany at 1")0. 000,000,000 marks, which was the limitli (ho American experts reported thev found Germany able to pay.
