Representative of U. S. Slated For an Important Role in Execution of Experts' Plan. Paris. —The report of the experts who have been engaged lor the past three months in the task of ascertain ing Germany's capacity to pay repara tions was handed to the Reparation Commission. The two commltte«s were under the chairmanship of Brig adier General Charles Dawes and Reg inal McKenna, respectively. The League of Nations is drawn into the reparations problem by the Dawes report, while an unofficial rep resentative of the United States is slated for an important role in the execution of the experts' plan. An American member of the general board of control for the proposed new gold bank of issue is quite likely to fill the important post of "commis sioner." His duty will be to decide when Germany's capacity to pay has been reached, while the League finance committee will be asked ten arbitrate if the commissioner's decisions in ap plying the "index of prosperity" are disputed by feither Germany or the Allies. Recognizing the obligation of Ger many to pay, and declaring that -she has resources with which to pay, the experts insist that if Germany does pay she mi)st have her hands free to exploit her economic resources. The experts carefully omit in their r&fcort mention of the Ruhr, but make it plain that the French and Belgians must satisfy themselves by leaving garrisons in the Ruhr, if they see fit, but taking their hands off the Ruhr and Rhineland Railroad and the Ruhr industries. The first prerequisite to the pay ment of reparations, the experts as sert, Is sound money in Germany. They propose to this end the estab lishment of a new gold bank of issue with 400,000,000 gold marks capital, in the organization of which they make it to the interest and profit of Germany, as-well as to the advantage of the Allies, to co-operate. In order to prevent these payments from affecting adversely •Germany's financial stability, an index of pros perity has ben fixed, making it pos sible to judge whether the amounts of the scheduled payments are or are not beyond Germany's capacity.

"To Japan the question is not one of expediency, but of principle," Am bassador Hanhara said.

"It is difficult to believe that it Is the intention of the people of your great country to resort to a mesure which would not only seriously offend the Just pride of a friendly nation x x x x but would also seem to involve the question of good faith and therefore of the honor of their govern ment." In transmitting the letter to Sena tor Colt, Secretary Hughes stated merely that it was for his considera tion in connection with presentation of the senate immigration bill which the Bhode Island senator has in charge. _ The secretary added only that the view of 'the agreement held by the Japanese embassy "correspond* with my own understanding of that agreement."
