Sir John Bradbury’s was the minority vote. The German experts first spoke, declaring that the German Government did not consider it indispensable to execute coal deliveries according to the exact percentage established) in view of the suggestion of the Reparations Commission last March that any deficits in the supplies of timber should oe made np by cash payments. The Germans then withdrew.
