HC Deb 18 February 1926 vol 191 c2166W
Sir F. WISE

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the amount the United States has received from the Reparation Commission?

Mr. CHURCHILL

Up to the present no part of the share of the United States in the Dawes Annuities has been utilised by the United States Government; such share (which amounts to approximately £1,200,000) remains to the credit of the United States in the books of the Agent-General for Reparation Payments. Apart from the Dawes Annuities, the United States has received about £12,000,000 in respect of the cost of the American Army of Occupation, including paper marks supplied by the German Government to that army to the value of about £7,700,000.

Sir F. WISE

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer the salary of Mr. S. Parker Gilbert, the Agent-General for Reparation Payments?

Mr. CHURCHILL

Mr. Gilbert is an international officer appointed under the Dawes Scheme, and I have no official knowledge of his remuneration.
