Indemnity Clause May Reserve
Determination
By Fred S. Ferguson.
( I !. Stuff Coiresnonilent.)
Fi.iis April 2. An efiori is being :,
' .
made, it was learned today, to insert a '
formula in the peace treaty fur exacting
reparation from Uermaiiy without nam- j
in ir a specific amount. This forinuli. ,
would clearly establish the principles on
which (id many must pay, leaving to a
special allied commission the task of
determining how much. The special
commission, according to present plt.ns,
would continue in existence over u per
iod of ycurs, folowiug '.. Gerniuns' fi
nancial and commercial condition ami
assessing ilamugcs accordingly. It
would also be empowered to make an
inventory uftef the conclusion of peace
for the intinl puyinent.
Solution Widely Approvod.
The British, French uud Italians arc
understood to be favorably inclined to
ward such disposition of a knotty prob
lem. Recent conferences have been dc
voted to i foils to frniue i; proguim un-

There is no clean-cut issue which unites
Berlin inl0 parties. A strong royalist
attempt to reguin the government would
probably unite Berlin and save the rev

The populace and the middle class, as

of opinion is probably due to lacs of
