HUGHES DEMANDS CESSATION OF WAR Notes to Costa Rica and Pan- ama Declare Hostilities Must Cease. Washington, D. C. — Cessation of hostilities between Costa Rica and Panama was demanded in notes which the state department dispatched to the governments of those two coun- cries on orders of Charles E. Hughes, aew secretary of state. This action was the first of the Harding administration in the realm of foreign affairs and was said to aave been based upon the grounde of broad expediency, as the dispute be- ‘ween the Central American republics involyd American interests in the Pan- ma canal zone, At the ureccion of President Hard- | ng and the state department, Secre- tary of the Navy Denby has dispatched war vessels to both the Atlantic and Pacific sides of Panama to protect American lives and interests. The ultimatum was issued on ad- vices that Costa Rican forces had in- vaded territory in the north of Panama | which indtsputably belongs to Panama. The state department, in the notes to Panama and Costa Rica is under stood to have declared that a settle- ment of territorial disputes between the two countries should be made in accordance with the award of Chief Justice White of the United States supreme court. The department told also of receiv- ing advices from the Costa Rican and Panama governments to the warning sent in recent notes by the Wilson ad- ministration. Panama's answer was understood to be satisfactory, stating the willingness of that country to ac- cept the good offices of the United States. The answer of Costa Rica, however, was believed to be regarded by the department as unsatisfactory. ALLIES TO OCCUPY GERMAN CITIES.

The German delegates last week were informed by the allied representatives that if Ger- many did not accept those terms the allies would take immediate steps. The German cabinet has unanimous- ly opposed acceptance of the allied re- parations terms. The allied demands, agreed upon at Paris and communicated to the Ger- man delegation here last week, called for payment of $56,000,000,000. The Germans countered with a proposal for payment of only $7,290,000,000. CLARK FUNERAL IS HELD Washington and Diplomats Pay Silent Tribute.
