Politically speaking, the World War ended with the Treaty of Versailles ten years ago; financially considered, the liquidation of the conflict has only now been definitely adjusted. Perhaps it is too much to say that the financial obligations of the war have even now been arranged, but at least the only important issues outstanding are the settlement of the French debt to the United States and an agreement between Germany and Belgium in regard to payment for the debasement of the Belgian currency during the war. Fortunately both these issues seem destined to be settled shortly in consequence of the agreement on the fundamental question of German reparations to the Allies.
