"4 [ ' THE EVENING STAR, BONARLAW TELLS [Proposals of Allied Powers To Untie Reparations Tangle WHATBALKSALLIES Cannot Make Germany Pay and Establish Credits, Too, He Declares. | MUST CHOOSE ONE WAY Premier in First Direct Statement of Reparations Policy Pleads for Accord. By the Associated Press. PARIS, January 3.—“You can get certain amounts of money by taking immediate possession of Germany, but you cannot take over Germany &nd re-establish her financial stabil- ty,” declared Mr. Bonar Law, the British prime minister, last night in the course of the first direct state- ment he has made on British policy concerning reparations since he be- came head of the government. “The allles have reached a point where they must choose between theso two methods,” he continued; “they cannot have both. This is not a political question, it is a business question. You can get certain amounts from Germany if you take posseseion of her, but you cannot take them and re-establish German credit. “I wish to say that it is certain there is on the part of the British government an earnest desire to act in accord with the allies. 1 am con- vinced that this also is the desire of the French government. A real danger is that differences in the pub- lic opinion of the countries will be ®o strong as to make it difficult, if not impossible, to reach an agree- ment. Avallable Through Loans. “Large sums are only available through loans; the amount of intiem nity must be fixed, not by partisa but by impartial business-minded peopl ‘o one is fond of paving debts, if it can be avoided. This is equally true of any nation, and Ger- many is no_exception “Having fixed reasonable condi- tions, if Germany does not then take necessary steps forthwith to carry them out the necessary steps must be taken to force her to compl “If we do not need reparations to the same extent as other nations we need them certainly to a greater ex- tent than others outside of our fs- lands seem to believe. The question is getting the largest amount Ger- many is able to pay; if this were all there was to it there should mot be difficulties in an agreemen “England’s Position Worse.” “It is sta constantly in the French press that there can be no guestion about the payment of the French debt until Germany pays her indemnity. This sounds natural, but let us look at it logically. We have made our budget position strong by making our taxpayers poor. We are suffering from this fact; our unem- ployment is a scourge as great as that of any of the other allied coun- tries. We run_ serious risk of ruin unless there is a very big im- provement in our position. We are in a far worse position as regards the people of our country than the other allies whose position is less strong than ours financially. “It is often said ) that we have a selfish interest in the restoration of Germany, because we do so much foreign trade. It is my firm convic- tlon that from a purely selfish point of view if an earthquake were to come along and swallow Germany up we would gain, not lose, since Ger- many is our trade rival SLATE LONGWORTH FOR HOUSE LEADER Party Strategists Expect Mondell to Succeed Fall, ! Opening Way for Ohioan. Bince it is positively known that Secretary Fall intends to resign not later than March 4, and since in party conferences it is pretty well agreed that the President intends to name House Leader Mondell as successor to Seeretary Fall, the party strategists are getting busy. They are figuring that for party in- terests it may be best to have the Fall resignation in the hands of the President not later than February 1, 80 that House Leader Mondell may be appointed before the close of the present Congress. In that event a Buccessor to Mondell as floor leader would be at once elected. The party counselors figure that Representativeee Nicholas Longworth would easily be elected during this Congress, while if the election goes over to the next Congress there are threats that ultra-progressive mem- ‘bers may combine with special-inter- est groups to make trouble for the consérevative republican majority. But if Longworth is elected in this Congress his re-clection in the new Congress would be much easier. Since Secretary Fall is going, any way, the party strategists are.ar- guing that it would be much more gdvantageous for party interests, and %o safeguard against a party split early in the new Congress with a presiden- tial campaign coming on, to have Mondell go into the cabinet before March 4, and to have Longworth's election ay floor leader over with, now that his election is practically certain, rather than to take any chances. Fall's Plans Immature. Plans of Secretary Fall after his resignation from the cabinet March 4 have not yet been fully formulated, it was_announced today at the In- terior Department. Tke resignation was announced by the President yes- terday. Mr. Fall will take a short period of complete rest on his ranch in New Mexico, after his resignation becomes eftective, and will then either open a law office or will resumg personal charge of his iImmense ranch at Three Rivers, N. M. The present In- terior Secretary has been in Washing- ton more than ten years, from 1912 to March, 1921, as a United States senator and since that time as Sec- Tetary of the Interior. Becret: Fall Is one of the largest $ndividual land holders in the United States, his holdings of patented and leased lands in New Mexico com- prising the Fall ranch totaling more than 400,000 acres. On this ranch Mr. Fall virtyally reigns as ruler of an immense domain, rivaling that ©f the feudal landlords of the middle . But nothing approaching feud- :fl:m enters the Fall domain.

GERMANY FAVORS |SAYS HUGHES HAD HAND HURHES PROPOSAL Newspaper Comment Indi- cates Willingness to Abide by Appraisal Plan. By the Associated Press. BERLIN, January 3.—The newspa- pers comment extensively on the re- cent speech of Secretary of Stats Hughes In New Haven. They give unstinted approval to the interpre- tation of Mr. Hughes on the repa- rations problem and lay particular stress on the international signifi- cance attaching to his utterance on the eve of the premiers’ conference in Paris. “The American statement puts Europe on restricted probation,” says the Boersen Courier, which expresses the belief that unless the entente statesmen are able to get together they will be forced to make a decla- ration of bankrupt whereupon the United States will step in and settle the issue on a purely economic basi: “European atesmen, therefore, says the organ of the Bourse, “have a choice between demonstrating th ability to arrive at a tangible solu- tion or being humbled in the dust by America.” Favored by Tageblatt. Mr. Hughes' suggestion that authori- tative experts be called in to deal with the situation appeals to the Tageblatt. which declares thmt Ger- ould accept the verdict ren- dered by such a body and abide by it, especially as the prospects are that reputable American opinion would be represented on such a jury. “Precautionary provisions however, be taken beforehand. the Tageblatt, “In order to prevent French imperialism from grabbing off German booty before the imperial tri- bune has rendered its verdict. “Will France also turn a deaf ear to this speech?’ asks Die Zeit, in connection with its approval of the utterances of Mr. Hughes. This newspaper, which is the organ of the Industrialists, describes the American Secretary’s address as far transcend- ing mere theory, and especially in view of the suggestion of Mr. Hughes that eminent American authorities would be willing to take places on the commission of appraisal ico from its status as a territory to its admission as one of the states. Born sixty-one years ago in Frankfort, Ky., he went to the southwest when a_young man, where he taught school, worked as a miner, a farmer and engaged in stock raising. He was identified with the southwestern territory in the stir- ring days of the Indian wars, and was a leader in the movement to maiie New Mexico a state.

Since he took office as Secretary of the Interior Mr. Fall has been re- garded in the cabinet as being among the best posted men on the develop ment of the west in the-nation. Not satisfied with his practical knowledge of the work coming under him as Sec- retary of the Interior, he threw him- self, immediately after taking office, into a close study of the intricate problems that develop from time to time in connection with development of the federal territory, work of the reclamation service and the land of- A close friend and confidant of dent Harding In the Senate, this friendship was carried into the cabinet, and the President is under- Gtood to have regarded Secretary Fall's views on national matters as among the most able he could de- velop.

PARIS, January 3.—Premier Poin- care yesterday furnished the repara- tions conference with further infor- mation concerning the non-aggression proposal referred to in the recent speech of Chancellor Wilhelm Cuno of Germany. M. Poincare said that the proposal originated with the German ambassador at Washington, and that it reached Paris through Secretary Hughes and Ambassador Jusserand on December 18. The French premier asserted that he informed M. Jusserand that the proposed pact was, no doubt, a ma- neuver by the German government on the eve of the Paris conference. He sald that the proposal was re- newed on December 21, and that, in replying this time, he pointed out that article X of the Versailles treaty contained a formal non-aggression provision, which was binding to France. It was evident to him that Ger- many wanted to be able to equivocate on the penalties likely to be enforced agalnst her in case of default. France, he said, declined to walk into such a trap, and he subsequently requested Ambassador Jusserand to inform Sec- retary Hughes of the true meaning of the proposal.

LEADS IN CONCESSIONS Redemption of Paper Marks at Two-Fifths Gold Offered to Obviate Failure. By the Assoclated Press. PARIS, January 3.—Belgium is pre- pared to sacrifice one of its most sacred prerogatives won on the fleld of battle during the war in an at- tempt to save the situation, effect a settlement of the reparations ques- tion and bring the conference to a shiccessful conclusion, said Henrl Jaspar, the Belglan foreign minister, last night. M. Jaspar declared that the seven to eight billion marks left in Belgian occupled territory by the Germans after the armistice doubtless would play @ great role in the conference. Belgium, he said, was prepared to make concessions to Germany by coming to terms for the redemption of these paper marks at the rate of two-fifths of their gold value. Says Parley Must Not Fail. “This conference cannot, must not, end in failure,” said M. Jaspar this evening. “Belgium will take the lead in the way of making concessions and do her utmost to settle finally, once for all time, this reparation question. If we fail here, it will not be our fault.

PARIS, January 3.—The French plan presented by Premler Poincare reviews the results of the war and declares at the outset that repar- ations, as provided for by the treaty of Versallles, is not only an indispen- sable condition to the restoration of French finances, but the only logical means to the restoration of the econ- omic situation in Europe. The plan says that France is ready to agree that the C bonds of the reparations be canceled in.consider- ation for the concellation of equal sums of the European interallied war debts, providing that that method of payment is approved by the allies., This is_equivalent to reducing the total reparations to fifty billion gold | marks, in case Great Britain is dis-: posed to cancel the C bonds accepted in payment of the debts due her. Bans Money Shipments. Strict meusures to prevent exodus of capital from German sure the balancing of the budget, stoppage of the issue of paper cur- rency, organization and supervision i of German finance by the allies and | prohibition of the discounting of | treasury bonds by the Reichsbank; are provided for in this plan. The plan insists that a moratorium | can only be partial and demands that) the expenses of the occupation of the Rhineland must be paid and that de- liveries in kind must continue. It proposes that an allled commission with full authority from the German government be sent to the valley of the Ruhr to collect the tax on coal production in that region, and that the tax on German exports shall be collected by the allies in foreign money. The mission to collect the coal tax and taxes on exports, as well as im- port duties in the Rhineland, would be presided over by a Frenchman. though the plan provides that seizur of the guarantees should be made by the allles in common. Premier Poin- care estimates the proceeds from the | different guarantees as follows: Polncare Lumber deliverie marks; coal deliveries, marks: nitrate deliveries, 60,000,000 marks: tax on exports. 400,000,000 marks: coal tax, 120,000,000 marks: divers other _collections, 20,000,000 marks; total, 1,000,000,000 marks.

The statement from the Vatican says the Berlin reporg was per- haps due to an erroneous inter- pretation of the replies sent by the papal secretary of state to Americans who had forwarded Christmas messages to the Pope. These replies substantially re- peated the ideas contained in the allocution of December 1 and the enoyclical of December 23, in which the Pope urged reconstruc- tion and the return of peac clauses of the treaty of Versailles are carrled out. ‘The British plan would provide that the existing series of class A, B and C bonds be canceled, Germany to issue to the reparations commission two serles of new bonds. The first series would amount to 50,000,000,000 gold marks “to be issued forthwith, repayable at par on December 31, 1954, it bearing interest at the rate of 5 per cent per annum, payable half yearly: | b the iry est to be suspended in its | entiret," for the first four years and to increase to the extent of 1 per cent per annum for the next four years until January 1, 1931, Amount ‘of Preferred Interest. | “The second series of bonds, to amount, to 17,310,000,000 gold marks, | h ure the amount of the preferred in- | I rest on bonds of the first series | compounded ut nt to April . 1933, or such Ic amount, if any, s the arbitral tribunal provided for may determine.
