U.S.REFUSES TO REDUCE BILL UPATION COST MUST BE PAID IN FULL, AMERICA TELLS ALLIES Source of Funds Not Important; Week-end in the Ruhr Region Marked by Killing of French Soldier and One German Civilian. PARIS, March 19.—(By The Associated Press.)—A re- fusal by the United States to accept reduction of its bill for the expenses of the American army of occupation by the value by the German ships seized in American ports was pre- sented today to the allied representatives in conference here on the reimbursement question by Eliot Wadsworth, assist- ant secretary of the treasury. Reimbursement of the $255,000,000 expense in twelve annual installments out of possible German reparation payments which the allies proposed, was accepted in principle, it was stated, but Mr. Wadsworth made it by) that the American view was that the bill should be paid and it should not be the concern of the United States whether it was met out of German payments or otherwise. The allied representatives, in the face of this rejection of their pro. posal, presented last week and after- wards submitted to Washington, called a separate meeting for tomor-. row at which they will try to evolve another proposition which will be given Mr. Wadsworth at a full meet. ing of the conference Thursday.

COBLE} March 19.—(By The As: sociated Press.)—Of the 1,450 news- papers published in the Rhineland and the Ruhr, 455 have been sup pressed by the occupation authorities for periods varying from three days to several months, according to seml- official German figures. Suspensions in the Rhineland total 298.

It is up to you, You can, by put- ting forth your best efforts, “cinch” the gift of your choice. With the close of the first period right at hand, vote getting !s now al- most a matter of hours. Candidates are putting forth their supreme ef forts to win the leadership in the race for the grand prizes. Leaders’ Margins Small. Candidates who havo been slightly down in the vote score are “‘elbow- ing” themselves closer and closer to the top. This {s apparently making the ones who had a few more votes to thelr credit realize that thelr mar- gin of leadership is very narrow and that it 1s anybody's race for the big prize.
