Towards the end of negotiations the German Government put for- ward an alternative proposal with the object of safeguarding pay- munt for current exports of Unit- ed Kingdom goods to Germany and enabling outstanding debts to be liquidated without setting p clearing system. The basia of proposal was that the Ger man Government would guarantee that 56 per cent. of the value of German exportą to the United Kingdom should be definitely earmarked for payment of Unit- ed Kingdom exports to Germany. This alforntion should, according to the dormal trend of Anglo- Geenin trade, he suficient lo ensure full payment.

At the outset foreign exchange certificates for the Import of United Kingdom goods into Ger- many will be issued without restriction, but the German Gov- ernment after consultation with the British Government may tom- porarily restrict the issue of such certificutes. But In exercising this control they will give aspecial consideration to exports of Ger. many which are particularly im- portant to the British, amely coat and coke, herrings, rarns, tissues and textile manufactures,

The German Government fur ther agrees that it will continue, as from January 1 next to pay full interest on bonds of the Dawes and Young Loans in bene. ficial ownership of British holders on June 15 last and will offer to British holders of Non-Reich Loans 4 per cent. funding bonds guaranteed by the Germán.

The agreement was the best possible. in the circumstances but he did did auggest. It would remove all difficulties in the way of Anglo- German trade and he advised ex- portera to continue to proceed with caution.-British Wireless.
