23 They provided both for the ones as well as the others, reciprocal rights aud obl gations, which must all be taken within their scope and in their tota lity, as being part of an indivisible whole. To modify some of them without a- dapting the others, to relieve some without relieving the others, is both un lawful and unjust. To be able to explain as clearly as possible the situation created for Rou- mania in the matter of reparations, we must examine the c'aims and the obli gations of the Roumanian State deriving from each treaty indiviiually, showing also their meaning and the modifications introduced on their application.

(Article 232). But a special privilege is created for Belgium, to be reimbursed lor all the loans accorded by the allies till November ll1918. At the same time it is provided that the totality of the damages which fall to the charge of Germany for reparations, shall be determined by the Com mission of Reparations, constituted in the shape and having the powers speci fied in annexes No. II-VII of Part VIII. The Commission of Reparations must notify to Germany by May I-st 1921, a list representing the aggregate of the liabilities for reparations which Germany must pay in a delay of 30 years, beginning on May I-st 1921, at the dates, and in the manner determined by the Commission of reparations (Article 233 j. The Treaty determines clauses respecting Germany’s various obligations of payment, so as to enable the allied and associated Powers to undertake the restoring of their industrial and economical life, before the final determination of the claims. Germany is obliged to pay, for this object during the years 1919 and 1920,
