HARDING DOUBTFUL
WHETHER He WILL
PROCLAIM PEACE
Question to Be Decided After He
Returns From His hoii-
day Trip.

The question OF whether there will
be a Presidential proclamation Of
peace to follow the passage OF the
peace resolution by Congress is now
under consideration and will be de-
cided after President Harding's re-
turn from his holiday. it was stated
officially today.
Technical peace with Germany IL
to be followed just as quickly as
possible with treaty of peace
which will make definite and hnal
the settlement OF the multitude OF
issues now pending between the
two countries, II was made plain
today In official quarters.
Secretary Of State Hughes Is now
engaged in the work OF drafting a
treaty. and It Is understood that
much of II already has been COM
pleted.
Although only binding upon those
nations which have exchanged ratif1-
cations. the established place the
Versailles Treaty is recognized to
have in international law Is bound
to play an important part In what
follows the entry Of the United States
into a technical state OF peace with
Germany and Austria, even Senators
most unalterably opposed TO it admit
ted today.
PREPARATIONS QUESTION.
But one Of the many international
complications threatened by the
Knox-Porter peace resolution Is that
involving German reparations and
their relations to the anticipated
Withdrawal Of American troops from
the Rhine.
1t is estimated that Germany owes
the American Government at this
time approximately $3.50 non. 600 for
the maintenance of American troops
on her soil since the armistice. Her
debt comes under the head OF repa-
rations. She paid one or two sub
stantial instnllinents before the tech
nical state OF war was declared at an
end by the Knox-Porter measure.
Senators are inquiring II Germany
is not likely to open up the question
OF reparations again when she Is
billed for the reparations due the
United States by the terms under
which American troops were stationed
on the Rhine.
Another serious aspect of the inter
national situation created by the
peace resolution Is the deliberate
omission from II Of any connrma-
tion OF the sale Of enemy alien prop
erty In this country which was ef-
fectcd by the allen property custo-
dians ffoice during the Wilson Ad.
