German Plea of Undue Harsh ness Declared Exaggerated, Reply To Charges (By the Associated Press.) Paris, May 23. Germany's economic atatua under the terms of the peaee treaty is the result of her own behavior, particularly through the ruthless sub marine warfare, the Allied and asso ciated council informed Count voa Brorkdorff-Bantzuu la answer to his note oa the economic questions. The Allied answer, which was mode public today with the text of the German note, ia negative. It points out that the German plea is exaggerated and ignores the fundamental considerations which led to the imposition of the terms. The loss to world shipping through ths German submarine campititfih- it is declared in reply, waa nearly thirteen millions of tons. Ths Allies propose to make Germany pay only four million tone. Responsibility for this ahortage inr shipping ia placed directly oa Ger many- and the German share in re placing it is eslled "very moderate." Ia answer to' the Germnn plea that Germany wilt be called upon to feed 87,000,000 persons, it It declared that ths peaee treaty takes 6,000,000 out ot German control. It it added that Ger man agriculture ia in better shape thaa that of Poland) Belgium and Northern Franc where the fighting wss heaviest. Ths ; Germsns complained thnt they would lose certain accessary commo dities. The Allied reply is thst Ger many can import thess goods. Germany, it is asserted, destroyed the Less coal fields, sad ths cosl fields taken from her in payment of the destruction wrought still leaves her sufficient forces of fuel Ths Germsns complained that ths Germsa populstion would suffer under the treaty, which was described aa aJIdeath sentence. The reply points out that all eoua tries are suffering ss a result of the war. sad there ia ss reaaon why Gr many, which was responsible for the war, should not suffer. Germsa figures ss to ths loss ia populatioa dus to tht blockade snd tpeeulstioa st to what will happen te the population ia ths future are declared to .bs fallacious.
