DAWES SCHEME.
BEER TAX DISPUTE. GERMANY AND COMMISSIONER. "BERLIN, April 6. The price of beer is responsible for the first conflict, since the inauguration of the Dawes scheme, between the German Government and Sir Andrew McFadyean, Commission-Controller of Revenues.
Sir Andrew objected to the compromise in tho Budget adopted by the Reichstag whereby an increase in the beer tax was postponed till January, 1927. His ground of objection was that the postponement might lead to a deficit in the controlled revenues next year, when Germany has to meet heavy reparation payments. Sir Andrew agreed to a postponement till July 1, but the German Government proposes to submit the dispute to international arbitation, as provided in the London agreement.—Router.
