BERLIN, April 1O.-To meet the
entente's economic sanctions. Ger
many has appointed an official An
ti-Reprisal Compission." of which
Hans kraemer. one of the nations
leading industrialists, is chairman
and Hugo SHINES is a member.
Herr Kraemer was chairman of
the commission Of experts which
framed the countes proposals to the
allies. presented at the recent Lon
don conference by DR.. Simons. the
German foreign minister.
While most Germans, declare
themselves unable. to analyze the
methods by which the entente hopes
to enforce the economic demands
Herr Kraemer has figured out their
effect upon German commerce and
industry.
Exports Cut Is Per Cent.
when the Entente begins the
blockade of the Rhine next Thurs
day." he said today, our export
trade to former enemy countries
will be completely ended. This will
represent a decrease of 35 per cent
in Germany's exports. Only such
deliveries to the entente nations
and to America may be made as
were actually begun prior to next
Thursday.
Although / am the head Of the
anti-reprisal commission, this does
not mean that we shall attempt to
dodge the Entente's measures
While I believe some shippers will
continue operations without show
ing the origin of articles shipped
through neutral nations, and al
though an Italian statesman has In
formed me that he knows a hun
dred ways in which Germany could
avoid the .reprisals, Germany.s
leading -+industrialists will no,
dodge the national obligations.
Believes ReprisaIs ImpossibIe.
Our finance minister and other
government leaders that attempt to
dodge these responsibilities would
not aid either our economic or In
dustrial situations.
Eventually these reprisals will
prove impossible economically. AT
the beginning there will be many
industries forced to close down and
there will be a vast unemployment
problem.
Our committee already has pre-
sented a plan to the governmcn mt
which we feel will do much toward
relieving the unemployment situa-
tion and also be of great construc-
tive value to the nation"

The first reactions abroad from
the Hughes note ir the matter OF
mandates seem to emphasize very
clearly one Of the obstacles which
must be reckcned with in the Whole
American adjustment of our Euro
pean POLICY and relations.
Inquiries arc at once being df-
rected at the extent of American
operations againEt the treaty of
Versailles. with. the very clear inti-
nation that any attack upon the
document itself, any attack which
envisages the elimination OF the
treaty and the negotiation Of a rev
settlement to take its place, will lie
met and repuised. -
Treaty is Fundamental.
The fact is plain. The treaty OF
Versailles represents for Europe tie
fundamental law established as q
col seuence of the war. 1t bears the
signature of the Germans and is the
warrant in law for wide variety Of
things all of them of utmost impor-
tance to the several European coun-
tries. The title of France to Alsace-

ELWELL MURDER
'CONFESSOR' SAYS
STATEMENT FALSE
Buffalo Prisoner Admits
Motive Was Desire to
Die in Chair.

BUFFALO. N. Y, April IO.-Roy
Harris this afternoon branded him
self a liar when his intricately-
built story of how he was hired"
to Kill Joseph Bovine EIweII, top
pied like a house OF cards.
fN.sA look of sadness swept his un-
shaven face as he admitted that not
only was he innocent of any con-
nection with the tHrfman's death,
but that he had invented the char
acters of Jerry" the chauffeur, and
Mrs. Fairchild," the wronged and
vindictive woman, who had decreed
that Elwell should pay the price" "
As theorized yesterday by his wife
in an interview. Harris declared
that he had fabrjcated his "confes-
sion" to gain surcease from his
Sins and to end his troubles by
death in the electric chair or to
gain at least a long term in prison.
Breaks Down I'm Quiz.
The first break in his stubborn
contention Of guilt came after De-
tective Sergeant Henry Oswald of
New York had grilled Harris re-
lentlessly into, the early hours of
this morning. Oswald, learning
that Harris wife had made him a
present on June IL, the day before
his twenty-second birthday, trapped
him into the admission that she
was in New York City at that
time. Up to then he had held out
steadfastly that his wife was in
Canada.
Haggard from loss of sleep, Har-
ris was taken to the ONCE Of Dis
trict Attorney Guy B. Moore at the
city Hall at noon. His wife had
been present at the early morning
examination. She reappeared again
at Moore's office. Confronted by
her statements and by a stunning z
up Of the discrepancies he had
created in his maze of detailed de-
nouncement of the murder, he at
last cried out:
Il might as we'll give you the
whole truth about the case and
that is, that there isn't any truth in
my confession"
Awaits Further GrilIing.
Acting on a request by the New
York authorities. Harris. was held
in strict seclusion in his cell to
await the arrival of former Gov
whitman and Capt. Arthur Carey

fruit growers of Central and
Southern Illinois, Southern

by the freezing weather of yes
terday and last night and the
succeeding cold wnye tonight.
The damage was aeeentuated
by n rain that later turned to

fell below the freezing point.
Hopes had been entertained
that Northern Indiana and
Southern Michigan would es-
cape serious loss, despite the
fact that the blossoms were
covered with light snow all of
today. But tonight the sky
cleared and the temperature be-
gan to fall rapidly, foreeasting
frost tonight. In Michigan, even
as far north ms st. Joseph, early
cherry, pear and plum trees
were In full bloom, but apples
and the small frults-straw-
berries and raspberries-were
considered safe.
In general the carly fruit
was so far advanced that ex-
perieneed orehardists were pes
simistic tonight. Small grains
are fairly safe. The damage to
wheat and onts will be slight,
but hundreds OF acres of clover
have been destroyed.
