Cul. Thomas W Miller. Alien
I'roperly Custodian, who has bce.i

piesented u plan to President Harding
out of which it Is expected a polii
hOon will be evolved.
Heie aie the essential objects whu.
it is sought to attain by the plan:
s. I'lr.'t American citizens whose re!.,
lives lost their lives In the Lusitani.i
o who lost pioperty at the hands
;erniriii dining the war shall bo paid
Second (iermun citizens who hav .
small estates which have been seized
by the American Covernnient shall
not le made to suffer unduly, b.it
should have their pioperty bach a.--
roon as possible, and the derma -i
Government shall be leciulred le
agree not to apply its'seveie tax law
to this particular ptopett).
Third -Insteinl of permitting- th.
Cetman Coveinment to eonriscwi.
through taxation the bulk of the s
tales held bv the Allen Propeity Cu
todlan, Hie American Government
shall use a pait of the proceeds ti

luted, 101 a billion dollar credit.
While the Harding Administratio..
is not committed to any specific pin

submitted by Col. Sillier u the II im
otlicial solution brought forwaid
,The I'nited Sldtes Government n-.

Intend to sanction any .urh schenn-
Tho new plan, therefore, attempts
ute approximately that part of tin
German assets which would go to th,
German Government Instead of to ll--cltizens.
If the United States weie to return

property seized from Germans, Hi.
Allied Governments and citizens
Allied countries would immediatel
bo benefited while German owriei
would bo hurt, as would American
citizens, whoso claims against Gtr -many
