Washington, Jan. 13.-The United

paid by Germany for destruction Of the
German fleet as Scapa Flow, because
it objects in principle to the statement
made by the supreme council, it was said
at the state department.
Germany, in compensation for destruc-

quested to deliver to the allies certain
inland steamers and harbor facilities.

council has decided to allocate per cent

its action with respect to the award was
final. the United States would waive its
claim to any part Of the indemnity.
State department officials would not
explain the governments objection. but
it was recalled that, from the first,
American peace representatives have ia
vored the destruction of German ships
