HINT U, s. MAY END HER RELIEF PROGRAM
 AMONG EUROPEANS
Action Would be Reprisal for
 Proposed Plume Settlement
RECENT NOTE WAS NOT
 THREAT OR ULTIMATUM
Future Action of America Depends on Allied Reply--How Three Pre- miers Effected an Unau-
 thOrized Plan

Washington, Feb. 16-Decide- 1 cbjectiuE to recognition of settle. ment of the Adriatic question or lines repagnant to those agreed upor In the treaty of Versailles and not reconcilable with the principles em. bodied in the IA points Of President Wilson was expressed by the United States IF the recent note to the all lies.
 The note was not a threat to withdraw from participation in Eu- ropean affairs, it was said officially but stated that this country could not be party to disposition of Plume as agreed upon by the allied premiers without consulting the United States and consequently would not concern itself with the questions involved, including poll clng of the Adriatic, if the settle ment were enforced on Jugo Slavia.
 The next step by Washington waits on the reply to the American note. The suggestion was made in official quarters that the United States might cease it's European re- lief work, which the allies have been anxious it should continue, to keep down unrest, if a modification of the peace treaty were put into effect, which the United States would regard as contrary to the principle of self determination.
 The facts which influenced the department of state in framing the new American note follow:
 Protest Action.
 December 9 at meeting of the supreme council in Paris settle ment of the Adriatic question was agreed upon, which to become effect i've required acceptance by both Italy and the Jugo Slavs. The basis was the creation of a buffer state of Plume and adjacent territory, and America represented by Under Sec retary Polk, was a party to the arrangement.
 After withdrawal from Europe of the American peace commissioners and while the Adriatic issue was still being discussed between the principals, a meeting was held in London of the entente premiers, Lloyd George, Clemenceau and Nitti, and new plan drawn up without participation by America and for warded as an ultimatum to Jugo Slavia.
 The basis of this was recognition of Italy's title to much of the eastern coast of the Adriatic and Dalmatia and there were other sub stantial additions to Italian claims which did not agree in principle with the original understanding.
 The latest American note was in the nature of protest against this method. It was not an ultimatum or a threat but pointed out that if persisted in would leave the United States in the position of being eX- pected to ratify a treaty which con firmed boundary lines beyond read justment which it already had de- clared to be wrong. And further more, it was recalled that this latest move had been made by the prem iers without consultation or advice from Washington, although this country would be bound to abide by the results should it ratify the treaty.

Feb. 16.--While con troversy over the proposed sale of 3( former German liners occupied today three government agencies, the White House, the senate and the district supreme court, presidents of great shipping companies were bidding in tens of millions against each other for the craft at the shipping boards auction. For one group of six the bidders fought with $25o.oO0 boosts in price, until Major General G. w Goethals, retired, now head of the American Ship and Commerce com pany, dropped out at $13,000,00( which he said was his limit, and P A. s. Franklin, president of the In ternational Mercantile Marine, raised the price to 13,100.0nn.
 Commissioner Scott had announced in opening the auction, that it was only to receive bids, final action tc await approval of the senate com. merce committee and the house mer- chant marine commission and the outcome of William Randolph Hearst's application for an injunction to prevent the sale. While the bid ding was in progress the senate further complicated the situation adopting resolution requesting that the sale be postponed. but at the conclusion of the bidding today il was announced the auction would continue tomorrow.
 In the district supreme court Associate Justice Bailey took under advisement MT. Hearsts applicat tion after hearing contention of council that the shipping board lacked legal power to dispose of the vessels. He will render his decision Friday.
 At the White House it was said that the president would answer promptly with decided negative the resolution adopted by the senate ask. ing if there existed a secret reported understanding with Great Britain as to ultimate disposition of former German craft.
 Bidding at the auction was slow in getting under way, when groups of ships were being offered but be- came spirited later when individual vessels were considered. The highest group bid was $14,O50,000 by the In ternational Mercantile Marine, fol nine ships, including the Leviathan which went unopposed, and the record bid for one ship was $2,O0O,0OO for the Callaon by the American Ship and Commerce company, doubling on one bid of the International Mercan- tile Marine.
 The highest group bid, covered the Leviathan, George Washington America, President Grant,, Nanse- mond, Antigone, Pocahontas, Princess Matoika and the Callaon offered by the International Mercantile Marine the vessels to be put in European service.
