27th. —The
question
of
|
German
reparations
is
again in
she
l
handes
of a conmittee
experts.
This Com-
mitte2 which
was
apnointed
after
a
pro-
’
longed
discussion
by the Supreme
Coun-
l
cil
this
afternoon,
is
to
coasider
cer-

tain
details
and
report
to
the
Couneil
before
a
final
decision
is
taken.
The
discussion
of reparations
was
taven
up
this
afternoon
in
an
atwosphere

M. Doumér
attitude,
thoughn
practicglly
disavowed
by
the
press
gen-
erally and
suppos=dly
by some
members
of the
French
Cabinet,
caused
consider-
|
ably embarrassment
at
the
Conference
when
the
subject
was
resumed.
The
‘
Britisk
Prime
Minister
is
underst
od
I
to have clearly indicated
that
the
radical
'
demands
made
by
M.
Doumer
were im-
|
possible
of realization.
-Mr. Lloyd George
|
took
up
the
whole
quesiion
of
repara-
|
tions
at
the
opening
of
the
session
of
|
the supreme
council.
He¢ declared

the merits
of
the

‘'Germ:n:

asserted,

of how

it.
Germany
could
