Lafayette Defriese, one of the four

Foreign Minister. to ask President
Harding last month to arbitrate the
German reparations problem, has sent
to Secretary of State Hughes letter
explaining his actions, denying that he
tried to usurp the functions of a dip

he hoped, and apparently still hopes,
to arrange a $1,000,00o,0Oo credit in
the United States for the shipment Of
raw materials to German industries.
The letter was written in London

DR. Moldenke, an authority on iron
and steel production, went to Europe
with Mr.. Helm, taking letters from his
warm personal friend" Senator Freling-
huysen of New Jersey. DR.. Moldenke
was to deal with the Krupps and other
great manufacturers Of iron and steel
and also copper products. The third
American, Mr.. Hoe1er. Is described In
the letter as mot only a good lawyer
hut he has great influence with the
wealthiest German-American people in

Mr.. Defriese, at the request OF Mr.
Helm and his associates. went to Ger
many to pass upon whatever legal
scheme should be devised, being urged
ito give at least few days to plans
which meant not only relief to my own
country, but which might also mean the
starting OF commercial operations which
would begin to put the world on Its feet
again"
The financial plan finally evolved, Mr.
Defriese said. consisted of a proposed
issue by the German Government OF
ten year per cent dollar treasury
notes, to be received ana marketed by a
trust company in the United States, but
as all German assets were pledged to the
Allies in the reparatlon agreements II
was obvious that something more than
treasury notes was required. The ar
rangement than made was that trust
company should be formed in Germany.

MIR. Defriese pointed out that when 1t
was learned that the French Govern

could not be carried out unless the
French changed their plans. Hence. he
said. he sent cablegrams to Hughes.

A despatch from Washington said
that while Mr.. Defriese and his asso-

posed to form an industrial corporation
with paid up capital OF $10.000000. to
be the centre of the operations, take
