REPLY TO DE VALERA NOT BEFORE TUESDAY

London, Sept. 25-(By the A. P.)-Sev- eraI members of the British cabinet among whom Premier Georges reply to the latest communication of Eamonn De alera is said to be going around, have not yet conveyed their views to the pre- mier concerning the situation and it is regarded as likely the premiers note will not be ready for dispatch to Dublin before Tuesday or Wednesday. No in timation has been vouchsafed as to the probable terms of the note but opinion both in England and Ireland seems to be hopeful that it will be couched so as to accommodate the position of the Sim Fein leaders and enable them to come into another conference.
 Tn the meantime disturbing reports of new provocative acts, alleged to have been made by Black and Tans in Cork and elsewhere. are causing apprehensions among those hopeful of a settlement of the Irish situation. According to Cork dispatches civilian members of the repUb- dsy night by British police patrols De velopments in the inteTnment camp at Spike Island, where prisoners are re- ported to he carrying out reprisals for alleged rough usage on the part of the guards and the week end developments in Belfast. where rioting continues un- apated. add to the dsquiet
 In the light of these occurrences sig nificance is attached to a statement made in Dublin by Irish authority on the
 government side that. peace wreckers again gre at work.

Would Have the U. 5.
 Cancel Debt of Allies
Proposition Made by J. A. H. Hopkins, Executive Chair man of Committee of AS.

New York. Sept. 25.-A suggestion that American spok in the coming con- ference on proposed limitation of arma- ments be authorized to offer to cancel the indebtedness of France, England and Italy in return for agreements on the part of those countries to disarm is ad vanced in aLletter to President Harding made public today by its author, J. A. Hopkins, executive committee of 4S.
 In the political campaign of 1920 the committee of 4S. after intellectual efforts to merge with the national Farmer-Labor party, withdrew from the national race with the announced intention of having congressional candidates in the field in 1922 and presidential candidate in 1924 Mir. Hopkins in his letter advised sub hitting to the three great powers in the form of an ''ultimatum the following statement of what he sand the United States wants and what this country is willing to concede to achieve its aim
 "We will not cancel your indebtedness gratis, nor are we content to longer post pone payment of the overdue interest l thereon. But if you and the Japanese delegates will collectively agree to dis | arm or agree upon a uniform mad pro- sressive ration of disarmament. America will join you in so doing and will simul- | taneously cancel or reduce your indebt- | edness to the American people to the ! same. extent and in the same ratio. There | is, however. no other way in which the American people will consent either to cancel or reduce your financial obliga-
 tions."
 The acceptance of such an offer" the
 letter continued, would be economical for all concerned. It would solve the problem and achieve the purpose for
 which the disarmament conference was
 called It would reduce enormously the
 bursting tax budgets of every nation
 and relieve the increasing financial pres
 sure which is closing in upon every in- | diyidual."
