PROMISE TO LEAVE

PARIS, April 2S.-Premier Miller
and, in making a declaration to the
Chamber of Deputies today on the re-
suit of the supreme council meeting
at San Reno, said that the Frankfort
and Darmstadt territories would be
evacuated by the French as soon as
the allied commission had established
that the German armed force over
the number allowed by the Conven-
ton of August, 1919, had been with
drawn.
BERLIN, April 81. - Conflicting
French, British and Italian views were
compromised in framing the final al
lied statement issued at the San Reno
conference, according to the view OF
the newspapers here.
This statement" says the Tage-
blatt, ''is somewhat sharply formu-
lated, but if Germany has not yet in
dicated what she is able and willing
to pay in reparation and indemnifi-
cation, it is because the special COM
mission of financial experts that has
been studying the question has been
unable to achieve definite results"
A member of the allied conference
is cited by the Vossiche Zeitung as
saying that premier Millerand pre-
vailed in the matter of form, but Pre-
mier Nitti in the matter of fact"

AMERICA FIRST ON
SEAS; IS MOTTO OF
new SHIPPING BILL
CRy Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, April 2S.-Estab-
lishment of an America-frst policy for
the development of the American mer-
chant marine is provided in a bill
drafted as a substitute for the house
merchant marine bill by the senate
commerce subcommittee and made
public today by Chairman Jones. who
plans to report it to the full committee
tomorrow.
Coastwise shipping the bill provides,
must be entirely American owned,
while rs per cent of the stock of cor
porations engaged in foreign trade
must be held by American citizens
Sale of American ships to foreign in
terests would be prohibited by the bill
without the approval Of the shipping
board which the act creates.
The bill also would prohibit the in
terstate commerce commission from
exercising authority already existing.
to grant preferential rail and water
freight rates on exports or imports as
we'll as passenger rates, unless Amer
lean owned vessels were used. Upon
the Boards recommendations where
American owned ocean transport alton
facilities are inadequate the commits
sion would be authorized by the bill,
however, to suspend this section.
Would Terminate Treaties.
In order to permit this disCrimina-
ton. the bill directs the president with
in 20 days from its passage 10 termin-
ate treaties restricting the right of the
United States to impose discriminating
duties or tonnage dues on foreign i'm
ports or foreign vessels.
This simply unshackled the United
States commercially so far as its mer-
chant marine is concerned and will en-
able it to pass such law as it may
desire to pass for the encouragement
of the merchant marine, Senator
Jones said today. In providing for the
preferential rates ne declared the bill
Cnly proposed a policy similar to that
under which Germany. Japan and other
countries have bnilt up their export
trade and maintained their shipping.
As already announced, the bill would
place the present government owned
merchant fleet under the direction of
shipping board composed of seven
members which would be authorized
to operate the ships under charter or
otherwise.
