Twenty-Five Million Yearly.
Parte, Jan. 12.?The British and
American delegations at the confer
ence of the allied finance ministers
have reached a final and definite ac
cord relative to the payment of the
United .States of the costs of the
army of occupation and war damage
claims. This was officially announced
tonight.
_ The agreement is subject to rati
fication by a plenary session of the
conference, but, inasmuch as Italy,
France and Belgium entered the ne
gotiations already pledged to support
the American viewpoint, and diver
gencies existed only between the
British and Americans, ratification U
regarded as a foregone conclusion.
The United States, under the agree
ment, will receive about $25,000,000
yearly on the total of her claims,
amounting to approximately $600,
000,000. Thus reimbursement of the
United States will occupy a period of
25 years.
