Remonstrances Over German Indemnity Powers In Reparations
Washington reports strong protests by the American government against Allied Reparations Commission rules allowing sale or seizure of German property in neutral countries to satisfy initial 20 billion gold mark indemnity.

Senator Henderson says German property rights in neutral nations cannot be taken. Scotland Yard reports 178,000 identifications by fingerprints with no errors.
