the concessions II is willing to make

with regard to the disposition OF the
former German cables. II was stated
by one of the American commission

The commissioner said the negotia-
tons had been dragging for some time
without any immediate indication that
an agreement would be reached
The United States has insisted that
the cable communication between the
United States and Germany. which
was interrupted as a result OF the
diversion of the German cables by the
allies, should be restored. Great Brit
ain is understood to have expressed
willingness to restore cable which
formerly ran from Emden to New
York, but which has since been d.
verted to connect PenZance with Hall

In British hands.
