PEACE TERMS.
France’s Share. NEUTRAL ZONE ON THE RHINE. [Aust. and N.Z. Cable Association.] (Received Tuesday, 9.45 p.xn.) PARIS, April 14. It is believed the Allies’ claims against Germany will be £6,000,000,000, with a reservation that they may claim a larger amount if necessary. It is reported that France has been allocated 55 per cent., the allocation being based on the number of dead, and the material destruction inflicted. It is likely that the Saar Valley will belong to the French Customs’ Union. It is also likely that a neutralised zone 25 miles deep will be established on the right bank of the Rhine. Fifteen years’ occupation of the Rhine line is contemplated.
