Reichstag Notified Of Note


BERLIN, May 8 (By The Associated
Press) Shortly after the opening of
the session of the Reichstag this after
noon Paul Loebe, President of the
Chamber, informed the members that
the reply of Secretary Hughes to the
counter proposals on reparations sub
mitted by DR.. Simons, the German For
eign Secretary, had been received by
the government. The reply Of Secre-
tary Hughes was delivered to DR..
Simons at 1880 o'clock this morning
by Loring Dresel, the American Com
missioner.
[Secretary Hughes's note, which
was cabled from Washington Monday
night, declined TO submit the Ger
man reparation proposal to the Allies
and strongly urged "the German
government at once to make directly
to the Allied governments clear,
definite and adequate proposals which
would in all respects meet its just
obligations" The German govern
ment in submitting new proposals to
the Allied Council has, therefore.
acted promptly on the advice of the
United States
On the announcement of Herr Loebe,
George Ledebour, the Social Demo-
cratic leader, moved that the House
Immediately discuss the note. This
motion was rejected by large ma
jority. Herr Loebe said DIR. Simons
would consult, with the Committee on
Foreign Relations Wednesday.
The Cabinet was in session up to
3 o'clock this afternoon, at which hour
it was without news of the final con-
clusiens of the London conference.
Criticism of Simons Continues
The newspapers are almost apathetic
as regards the Washington govern
ment's reply to DR.. Simons. The Ma
tionalist papers chorus, 81 told you so,''
and again reproach DR.. Simons for
what is termed his lack Of dignity in
appealing to President Harding. The
Kreuz Zeitung says:
s'Now that French battalions, ere
ready to cross the Rhine it would Ee
futile to make fresh counter proposals.
They would be met with scorn and
mockery."
The Tagliche Rundschau con-
strues the suggestion of Secretary
Hughes that. Germany make a direct
offer to London as indicating a sense
of close feeling between Washington
and London.
The Lokal Anzeiger says the refusal
of Mr.. Hughes to transmit the Ger
man proposals to the Allies has created
situation where the United States
covers with its authority demands
which the German government, tbs
Reichstag, economic experts and public
opinion have pronounced as impossibl-
of fulfillment.
The Boersen Zeitung expresses dis
appointment over the manner in which

Offer Is Reported to Have
Been Telegraphed From
Berlin for Submission
To Reparations Body
Said to Resemble
First Paris Terms
Simons to Take Hughes
Note Before Reichstag
Committee During Day

LONDON, Wednesday, May 4 (By
The Associated Press "A new Ger
man offer to the Allies was tele-
graphed Tuesday from Berlin to the
German Ambassador at Paris for
communication to the Reparations
Commission, according to a state
ment ascribed by The London Times
to good authority"
The terms of the offer are not
known, but The Times says it is be-
lieved they are approximate to ac-
ceptance of the Allies decisions at
Paris on January 20.
It is presumed the offer will be
forwarded to London and placed be-
fore the Supreme Council to-day
wednesday,.
A visit made last night to the
British Foreign Offices by Dl.
Sthamer, the German Ambassador,
is the subject of speculation. There
are several divergent reports con-
cerning the visit.
One of these is that the Ambassa-
dor, to whom rurnor assigns the post
of Foreign Minister in a possible
new German Cabinet, conveyed a
communication implying that the
German Cabinet was contemplating
early resignation. Another is that
Dr.. Sthamer presented urgent new
proposals respecting reparations.
It. was remarked that while DR..
Sthamer was engaged with the For
eign Office officials, special mes
senger from the American Embassy
arrived at the Foreign Office. Moth
ing is known, however, which would
suggest that the visit of the An1eri-
can was more than coincidence.
