§ 52. Sir F. WISEasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if the United States of America has received any payments from Germany under the reparation payments scheme; and, if so, what is the amount?
§ Mr. McNEILLUp to 31st October last, the United States had drawn for reparation 29,106,000 gold marks (about £1,455,000) under the Dawes Plan.
§ Sir F. WISEMay I ask whether this reduces the amount that is due to Britain and the other Allies?
§ Mr. McNEILLMy hon. Friend is quite capable of seeing the effect of that under the ordinary operation of the Dawes Plan.
