GERMANY AND THE DAWES PLAN.
7
London, December 14.
The report of Mr. Parker Gilbert, Agent General of German Reparation payments, on the first year's working of the Dawes Plan, shows that the plan has realised its objects in balancing the German budget and stabilising the German currency.
Full provision is made for a milliard gold marks, which it is estimated Germany will be able to pay the first year, and although some money has not been handed over, the balance is at the disposal of the Agunt General, who pays a tribute to the manner in which the Germans have co-operated in the work.
The report expresses the opinion that Germany, for some time to gone, must rely on long credits from abroad, but that the pros peels for a peaceful reconstruction of Europe are hopeful, although Germany has still many difficulties to evercome.-Reuter.

In an editorial, the journal says that it is a little disconcerting to find that the Dutch East Indies have made considerably more pro- gress in, bud-grafting than Malaya and elsewhere. Results hitherto have been highly encouraging and seem to show that bud-grafting will loom very largely in future planting developments. It concludes with a tribute to the Ceylon estates as models of efficiency and good cultivation.-Reuter.
