Barrow-in- Furness ship building districts, the Bradford weaving and the Greenwich and Leyton engineering districts. It also further attempted to limit its assistance to districts where ex - .service men in distress predominated, but found that ex -service alien pre- dominated in almost all. necessitous a districts. The scheme provides that ex -service men must be given prefer- ence up to '75 per cent. of the men employed. 23,000,000,000 Marks Printed in 10 Days A despatch front Berlin says:— Bank notes totalling twenty-three billion paper marks have been put into •circulation within the last ten days, according to the newspapers here.

The Reparation Commission decided that the total debt should be divided into three categories: "A" bonds, $3,000,000,000; "B" 'bonds, $9,500; 000,000, and "C" bonds, $20,500,000,- 000.

Thus the Allies col- lected from Germany during 1921 $1,621,964,000. 1922—During 1922 and up to March 22 Germany paid $70,487,230.12. Here she professed difficulty, and was a1- lowed to scale down cash payments for the year to $180,000,000. This left her obliged to pay $109,512,769.88 in monthly installments.
