REPARATIONS.
GERMANY RECEIVES A DEMAND Received March 23, 7.45 p.m. BERLIN, March 23. The Reparations Commission handed Germany a Note demanding equivalents of the thirty-six millions sterling payment in 1922 in cash, and seventy-two and a half millions in kind. Germany is also required to raise forty-six millions sterling by new taxation, and inaugurate a drastic scheme for reduction of Government expenditure, which must be submitted by April Ist. The Note, which is practically a time limited ultimatum, also insists that Germany must raise the internal and foreign loans, in default of which the Commission will put into process a levy on German capital.
