Supremo War Council Delegate*
Will Meet ( criiiaiis at liru*scls
Wednesday.
Paris, March 1H.?The plans
adopted by the supreme war council
under which negotiations with the
C.erinan authorities regarding the
j turntni; over of tho German titer-,
chant shipping will he resumed, after
their recent interruption at Spa,1
provide for the holding of the sessions
of the negotiations at Brussels.
The allied delegates will leave
Paris next Wednesday for the Bel-j
gium capital and the first session in
tho resumption />f the negotiations
will probably he held Thursday in
one of the government palaces
there.
! The plans determined upon by the
council, as already stated, provide 1
| for taking over the German mer'
chant ships In return for a food supj
ply for Germany until the next harvest.
The chief difficulty thus far
| has been over the manner of payment
for the food supplies, but new
proposals are expected to meet the
former objections.
If Is understood Ihnl Uip navmrniU
will come from three sources ?
first, in the form of products such
as coal and potash; second, from,
; credits which Germany has in neu-l
tral countries which thus far have
! been unavailable because of the
i financial blockade; and, third, from
foreign securities held by Germany.
r It is estimated that these three
i sources v.'ill readily yield about
? 1500.000,000. which is the sum required
to pay for food relief to an
t extent considered adequate to carry
i the Germans until the time of their
harvest.
From the nature of the exchanges
> during the negotiations at Spa the
: allied delegates have reason to exs
pect that the new proposals will be
^ acceptable to the Germans, and the;
i belief generally prevails that an:
- adjustment will bo reached tinder
r which German ships will soon be-,
? come available to move American!
s troops homeward.
