British Proposal Sparks Franco British Reparations Clash

Lloyd George proposes cash payments be limited to 26 percent of German export value with potential in kind options, while a loan may fund peace treaty charges. French finance minister De Lasteyrie questions the interpretation, leaving negotiations at a standstill as Italy and Belgium show varied support.
