President von Hindenburg of
Germany has signed the Young
plan agreement for the final de
termination of war reparations,
although it was strongly op-
| posed by certain elements of
the German people.
This act is of the most im-
-portant signifiance, because it
marks the end of the long and
bitter controversy over repara-
tions which has existed ever
since the end of the World War.
In reaching a peaceful agree-
ment of this vast and complicat-
ed problem the conciliatory at-
titude of President Hindenburg
has been a great help. Although
during the war h was looked
upon as a ruthless militarist,
since his accession to the presi-
dency in 1925 his powerful in-
fluence has been consistently
exerted in behalf of peace and
