Backing for Germans
Paris, May 3. Authoritatife dis
approval of a plan that has been ad
vanced for Ske ' rehabilitation - of
European financial credit was ex
pressed today by the financial mem
bers of-the American delegation. It
was made known that the United
States would Jiot be a party to any
joint action having for its purpose
the restoration df German business.
It had been proposed by the Brit
ish that a German bond issue of
$5,000,000,000. be arranged, with
Great Britain, France, the United
States and the other associated pow
ers as guaranters. The American
delegates opposed this-
The apportionment was to be
based on the relative wealth of the
signatories.!. '
The objections raised was that the
failure of any one of the guaranters
to bear its share would require in
creasing the burden and responsibili
ty of the others, thus creating an
unjust situation. -. : -
