P.)—The alfed reparations commission, it was announced today. has asked J. P. Morgan & Co. to accept membership on the finan- olal_sub-commrission which will convene in Parls in a_fortuight to consider the possibility of floating an international ioan for Germany. The reparations commission, it s stated, is particularly anxious to have J P. Morgan act personally, but would welcome any_member of his firm whom he should designate. The sub-commission as now made up is composed of former Premier Delacroix of Belgium, chairman; Signor Damelio of Italy, vice chalrman; Karl Bergmann, Germany ; Sir Robert K. Indersley, Great Britain; Charles Sergent, France; Dr. G. Vissering, Holland. BELIEVE MORGAN FIRM WILL CONSULT U. 5, GOVERNMENT ‘Washington, April 18 By the A. P. The request of the allied reparationy commissfon for co-operation from the American banking house of J. P. Morgan in_considertng an international lo Germany may lead to ihporta both by Amercan bankers and the Ame:. ican. government in regard eral scheme of German rehabiiitation. Although the Morgan firm, if it accepts membership on the financial sub-commis- sion at Paris, presumably would be vest ed with no power to commit in any way the United States government, officlals here, it is beieved, undoubtedly wouid be closely in touch with the problem under discussion and would make their influ- ence felt in the uitimate rehabilitation plan. On the specific question of a joan to Germany, the Amerioun state depart- ment never has indicated its att'tude nor were officials willing to discuss the sub- ject tonight in the a formation. There has been apparent no disposition, however, to place obstacles In the way of the suggested formation of an international consortium of bankers for floating such a loan as a nrivats in- vestment wholly independent of govern- mental part.ciput vn. Regarding the broader proposition of nce of official in- foreign loans generally, the department has taken the position repeatedly that such proposals should in ail cases be submitted to Washington before consum- mation. In a formai department state- ment issued on March 3 last the unde- sirability of throwing foreign loan se- curlties on the market promiscuously was discussed in detail and the attitude of the department was summed up in this way: “The department of state cannot, of course, require American bankers to con- sult jt. It will not pass’upon the merits of forelgn loans as business propositions nor assume any responsibility whatever in connection with loan transactions. Of- fers for foreign loans should not, there- fore, state or imply that they are’ contin- gent upon an expression from the depart- ment of state regarding them, nor shouid any prospectus or contract refer to the attitude of this zovernment. “The department believes that in view of the possible national interests in- volved, it should have the opportunity of saying to the underwriters concerned, should it appear advisable to do so, that there s or is not objection to any par- ticular issue.” In view of this attitude, the expectation here is that the Morgan firm will com- municate soon with the department, should there be any intention of particl pating in the Paris sub-commission pro- ceedings. The first decision. however, must rest with the firm itself, ahd ofli- cfals indicated tonight that they would reserve their advice/until it was request- ed. HAYS CANCELS ALL FILMS IN WHICH ARBUCKL APPEARS New York, April 18.—Cancellation of al leontracts for the showing of fiims in which - Roscoe . (Fatty; Arbuckle ap- pears, was announced tonight by Will 14 Hays, head of the Motion Picture Produc- ers' association. This action, he sad, affected nearly 10.000 contracts. “After consukation with Mr. Nicholaz Schenck, representing Mr. Josaph Schenck, the producer, and Mr. Adolph Zukor and Mr. Lasky, of the Famous Players-Lasky corporation the distributors,” Mr. Hays' statement said, “ 1 wil state that at my request. they have cancclled all showings and all bookings of the Arbuckle fims. They do this that the whole matter may have the consideration that its importance warrants, and the action is taken not- withstanding the fact that they had nearly 10,000 contracts in force for th2 Arbuckle pictures.” When Mr. Zukor was asked is the ac- tion of the Producers’ association had re moved Arbuckle definitely from the iist of screen stars. he replied: “We sirglly left the matter in the hands of Mr. Hays, It is up to him to dectde in the future whether it will be proper to reintroduce the Arbuckle pictures.” Mr. Zukor said recently that three Ar- buckle feature comedies had been complat- ed before the arrest of the comédian on charges growing out of the deatn of Miss Virginia Rapie. The producers announa- ed shortly after Arbuckle's acquittal that one of the films would be released as a “test” of public opinion. MRS, C. N.
