AMERICA'S WAR CLAIMS
NEARLY ONE BILLION DOLLARS. Frees Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. WASHINGTON, January 29. (Received Jan. 31, at 9.10 p.m.) Senator King has introduced a measure providing that enemy alien property seized during the war should be returned to the owners. Strong opposition developed to the proposal, it being pointed out that America’s claims against Germany total nearly one billion dollars. Enemy property seized in the United States was valued approximately at 800,000,000 dollars, which represents the only way by which America’s claims can be paid.—A. and N.Z. Cable.
