EARLIER TELEGRAMS.

REPARATION COMMITTEE'S, REPORT FORECASTED.

Paris, April 8,

The firal report of the experts on Reparations, to be published to-morrow, is a huge document of sixty pages. According to forecast it proposes that Germany should immediately pay 16 milliard gold: marks, also annual payments of between a minimum of 1,400 millions and a maximum of 2,000 millions of goli marks.

Alternatively she will pay one rollliard of gold marks the first year. 1.200 millions the second and third years, 1,750 millions the fourth year, 2,460 millions the fifth year, and onwards,

After the sixth year the Reparations Commission demand supple- mentary payments, calculated on the basis of Germany's prosperity, possibly amounting to several hundred millions of gold marks.

The German railways are to be handed over for 50 years to a international company, with a capital of twenty-six milliards of gold marks, of which the Reparation Commission will hold eleven milliards of 6% debentares, giving an annual yield of 660 millions of gold marks after the fourth year.

Without entering into the question of the military occupation of the Ruhr, the experts think that Germany's economic restoration can be lastlag, only if her economic unity is fully re-established; and EL Pre- they suggest a permanent committee of five experts, with sident nominated by the Reparation Commission, to regulate the movement of German capital, aud to administer the capital left tem- porarily in Germany --Router.

'CHINA'S FINANCES.,

London; April 8.

Liang Shi-y, in a Reuter interview dealing with Chinese Finance. said that foreign capital was welcome, but only on conditions which must benefit both parties, and not be one-sided. He was of opinion that preference should be given to Chinese products, but did not object to the employment of suitable labour from abroad.

He advocated that the Government should build the railways. and the people provide the rolling stock, and incomotives. Thus, even with its present capitai, the Government could construst twice the present length of line, and save time.

Mr. Liang will be banquetted by, the Legation and Chinese atndents, and is to stay six weeks in England. He will then tour the Continent, returning home ria America-fruter.
