Paris, April 21.-An announcement
by the German foreign minister that

it was physically impossible TO pre-
pare the document in its complete,
final form in the four days remaining.

again absented himself from the con-
ference. The council of four will meet
again this afternoon, President Will

receive any German delegation not
fully empowered to conduct and nego-
