Germanys latest repara, tlou offer proposes that the sum total of her obligations in cash and kind under the Versailles treaty be fixed at 30,000,000,000 gold marks. The German government, in a note made public here Wednesday simultaneously with its receipt by the entente and .Washington govern, ments, proposes, that twenty bllllone of the total be raised before July 1, 1927, by 'a bond issue at normal rates of interest on the international money market Five billions would be raised before July 1, 1929, in the same manner and the remaining sum similarly before July 1, 1931. The note asserts that Germany, in accordance with existing treaties, will also make payments in kind which are to be credited to her account The note expresses the governments conviction that the new proposals represent the utmost limit of Germanys capacity to pay and expresses grave doubts as to whether the offer does not exceed her ability in view of the heavy dislocation and weakening bt the relchs economic organization caused by the Ruhr occupation.
