TELEPHONE OPERATORS VOTED TO GO ON STRIKE V, By Associated Press. Boston, April 12.

DOUBT WHETHER HUNS CAN PAY Americans Believe the Total Amount of Bill Will Not Be Collected By Associated Press. Paris, April 12.—While the mem bers of the British and French par liament are mobilizing for a pro posal to exact nothing less than full indemnification of the Allies by Ger many for all the costs of the war and are insisting on Germany's abil ity to pay the full bill, the Amer ican representatives on the repara tions commission express considera ble doubt whether even the account to be presented to Germany under the plan adopted by the Council of Four (estimated at about $45,000,- 000,000, with the payment spread over a period of thirty years), can or will be collected in full. They assert that they can see the possibility that the ways and means of holding Germany to payment will grow weaker as the years pass and that Germany may take advantago of some convenient opportunity in later years to repudiate her obliga tions to the present allied powers under the peace treaty. For this reason the American and other delegates on the reparations commission have opposed a now pro posal which the French brought in to Specify labor and other requisi tions for the restoration of the de vastated French provinces in the first few years after peace, maintain ing that this revived the principle of priority as between the various creditors of Germany which had been rejected by the commission and the Council of Four. They argued that France in this way might receive disproportionately a large share of her claims in the first years while the ability of the associated governments to enforce payments was still good and that other states dependent upon later payments in money and materials might be left "holding the bag" if Germany proved recalcitrant. The difficulty probably will be met by the French offer to account to the other countries for the cash value of labor, materials, cattle and other things exacted for the restora tion of the nine northern provinces. Germany, although her prisoners will be released at the end of the armistice, probably will lie required in the peace settlement to provide a part of the labor needed for re building of devastated regions as well as labor at home in the manu facture or production of materials to be used in restoration work. | Continuous Service g and Long Run !"
