Optimistic in Washington
On Reparations Outcome

The Washington government con-
tinued its silence yesterday on the
war reparations negotiations pre-
cipitated by the alternative pro-
posals submitted to Secretary of
State Hughes by the German gov
ernment.
In official quarters the assertion
was reiterated that informal con-
versations with the allfes were con-
tinuing and that nothing relating
to the issue had-reached an official
status, although it is admitted that
there difficulty in drawing the
line between formality and inform
ality in the premises.
1t is known that the Washington
government remains optimistic de-
spite pessimistic reports from
abroad concerning the reception the
German proposals have received in
Europe. They seek to emphasize
daily the fact that the United States
is not concerned regarding the ac-
ceptability of the German offer as
a settlement of the question, but
only with its becoming
a basis for further dis
cussion between the German gov
eminent and the allies.

MAY DAY RISING
I IS DlSRECARDED
BY U.S.. AGENTS
Believe That They Have
Discounted Any Possi-
bic Disturbances.

Department of Justice and De-
partrnent of Labor agents announced
yesterday there was no evidence Of
a serious May Day disturbance in
the United States. ..... .
Z Although precautions were being
taken against sporadic outbreaks OF
Communist followers and sympath-
izers of the Russian Soviet move
ment, government officials were not
apprehensive Of serious trouble any
where.
Discoveries have been made of
the distribution of pamphlets,
chiefly in the large cities, calling
upon the workers to rise against
the capital class. These were of
the usual character circulated every
year, shortly before the first of May
and no serious consequences were
expected to result therefrom. Police
of many cities. however. were on
the alert for any uprising that
might spread trouble.
So far as known. plans of the
radical elements in the large cities
went no further than parade demon
strations to be accompanied by the
of radical literature.
The Department of Justice yester-
day was asked by Representative
Foster, of Ohio, to investigate re-
ports that Communist 4gitators
were planning May Day revolution
ary activities in the coal mining
district near Athens, Ohio.
Foster read to the House a cir
cuIar of the agitators which he said
urged violence.
