LONDON, April ton
should be given the German repara-
tions proposals by the allies. said the
Daily News today, in discussing the
terms Of the Berlin government as
published here. The newspaper ex-
pressed the opinion that the German
note was not clear, but added:
"On the face of this. they are not
terms which the American govern
ment is likely to dismiss as unworthy
of discussion
ITO concede Germany's condition
that penal restrictions on trade be
withdrawn" the newspaper continued,
would be an act of justice and wis.,
dom on the part Of the allies. Ger
many ought. perhaps. to do better. but
she manifestly is offering beyond com
parison more than France could ever
extract by invading the Ruhr dis
trict.
Need for Force shown.
Reserving judgment as to the ac-
ceptabilty of the proposals until they
are more fully examined, the Chron-
icie says: "Obviously, the imminent
fear Of the occupation of the Ruhr
region produced a degree of repent
ance in Berlin which no amount of
appeals to reason and justice ever
produced. If Germany can make
these offers now. she could just as
easily have made them months ago
which proves that force is the only
argument she respects"
Germany's new proposals. says the
London Times. "are not so derisory
as the proposals of March, but they
are still way below what the allies.
after many voluntary attachments,
have declared to be the minimum de-
mands."
1T remains to be seen whether
President Harding and his advisers
will consider the present project such
an advance upon them as to make
worth while submitting them in their
present shape to the allies and
whether the allied council can enter
tain them as capable of forming a
basis of agreement"
The Times deprecates the German
