Germany Gives Promise to Belgium on Reparations
Paris reports that Germany pledged to settle the war before the Owen Young reparations plan takes effect on September 1. The pledge clears the final barrier to signing the reparations agreement after months of deliberation, with Germany sending the note to Dr. Hjalmar Schacht and Schacht delivering it to W. H. Young for Belgium. Belgium demanded restitution for currency destruction during occupation and the confiscation of Belgian francs. Also noted is an isolated school notice: about twenty high school yearbooks remain for sale, with purchase possible at the high school between now and June 15.
