WORLD CAPITALS ARE JUBILANT
EUROPEAN RECONSTRUCTION NOW MADE POSSIBLE.
Agreement was reached to-day by the Powers at Lausanne. Word was flashed from the seat of the conference to the capitals of the world and in all save one, Berlin, the news was received with en- thusiasm and thanksgiving. The nations, in effect, have wiped out all German reparations and in their place have arranged for bonding of the debt, in the sum of 3,000,000,000 marks.
The agreement goes farther than that, con- taining five resolutions, in all, embracing a variety of matters, political and economic, It contains an understanding between the central Powers for as- sisting the eastern and south-eastern states' re- establishment.
The agreement is interpreted as being a great stride towards closer international understanding and one of the surest means for the preservation of peace.
