S.: By. the Associated Press. BERLIN, June 25.—There was wide- spread apprehension in German official circles today, particularly close to the/ foreign office, lest references in yester- day's Reichstag speech of - Gustav Stresemann, foreign minister, infering that Europe was a colony of America, would be construed as unfriendly to ‘Washington. His statement was in refutation to Na- tionalist charges that Germany was be- ing made a colony of the former allics. “We ‘are neither an English nor a French colony,” he said, “but it seems doubtful if all Europe is not in danger of becoming a colony of those wio were luckier than we. “That at Paris, the colonles got t gether to relieve one anothers' situa- tion by mutual concesslons—because there certainly were no concessivtis forthcoming from the other side—is a fact which cannot be removed from the history of the Paris negotiations.” Deutsche Allgemelite Zeitung, whose editor is a close friend of Dr. Strese- mann, published-this morning an edi- torial emphasizing the foreign minis- ter’'s warm pro-American feeling. “In the context where the sentences were spoken we see not even the least sign of unfriendiy inteation toward ine United States, and feel it altogether absurd, especially in the case of s‘r.rmmunn to support such an inclina- tion.” It added that Dr. amumnnn state- men was “much more ugainst I'ngland and France than America, :ince the so-called victorious nations are declared to have lost the war as much as Ger- many, because, like Germany, they have heavy financial debts, in thelr case, to the United States. JULY CONFERENCE ON DEBTS LOOMS Second Parley in Switzerland Ex- pected on Reparations Settlement. By the Associated Press. PARIS, June 25.—A conference of the powers interested in the repara- tions settlement probably will open some time about July 15, it was thought in officlal French circles today. Switzerland, it was believed, would chosen as the neutral ground for the negotiations, which would have as their object substitution of the Young plan for the Dawes settlement, and evacuation of the Rhineland. Probably also included on the agenda of the conference will be the question of disposal of the Saar Coal Basin and the Reich mandate for some former German colonies. It was understood here these questions would come up despite official German statements to the contrary. It was recalled that neither the Saar Basin nor the German colonies was mentionied in the agreement at Geneva from which the conference of experts on_reparations proceeded. Dr. Gustav Stresemann’s remarks to the Reichstag yesterday concerning the temporary character of the Young plan was interpreted in official circles as having been made for purely interior consumption. There were no apprehen- sions of difficulty in reaching an agree- ment for the application of the ex- perts’ recommendations. As for the Reich’s mandates, it was pointed out there were none vacant, according to the terms of the treaty of Versailles, and that nobody thus far was showing any desire to make them vacant, and until they did there seemed no way to satisfy Germany's desire to recover her old colonies.

The defeat of the veteran interna- tional player by Austin was the first real upset of the Wimbfdon champion- ships, which got under way yesterday. English tennis experts hailed Austin’s performance as one of the “finest vic- torfes for English tennis since the ‘World War.” ‘Tennis players from the United States started at a fast pace in the second round today, John Hennessey defeating R. E. Worthington, England, 6—4, 6—4, 623, after Geo: Lott had won from L. de Borman, Belr':'lum 6—0, 6—1, 6—2. Wilbur Coen stopped C. J. Robbins, South Africa, 6—1, 6—1, 7—9, 6—1. P.

The American star was never in‘danger of losing a game. Miss Wills, wearing stockings, drew all the crowds that could pack the stands about No. 1 Wimbledon court as she won her match. ‘There had been much speculation as to whether Miss Wills, who likes to play without the impediment of stockings, would follow her custom at staid and ifled Wimbledon. er tennis was superb, but her stock- ings were just ordinary every-day sort of apparel. They were silk, but nothing fancy at the heels. The English girl had a dash of color, for she wore a pair of yellow socks rolled over her stockings. Officials had not decreed that the woman players should wear stockings, but it seemed all did as a matter of preference, and, any way, it was not too warm today. The English .m could score no mbre than two points in any game with Miss Wills. The American girl rounded o the -first set with a love game anl opened the second set with another love game. She scored two others dur- ing the second set, Miss Ryan Wins. Miss Elizabeth Ryan won from Miss Anderson, Great Britain, 6—1, 6—1.
