Decree names the first Claims Commission

It is further understood that the claims already presented to the Claims Commission appointed by the Decree of 4 November 1916 may not be submitted anew to the New Claims Commission, which will review the conclusions of the Commission appointed by the Decree of 4 November 1916 touching these claims; it may require the production of new evidence when it judges it necessary and take such final decisions as seem to it just and equitable.
