fact, johnson has not dissipated like
a great many are under the impress

that Johnson is just as good today as
,durin ghis reign of king of the heavy

johnson is now in New York City
waving challenge at Dempsey but
the champion and his manager, Jack
Kearns, are dodging the issue and
Johnson has been informed that there

Johnson is too old to fight and would
prove poor card. The New Yor':
Estate boxing commission recentlv is
sued an order that "no boxer ovef the
age of SO years could participate in a
boxing bout in that state." This new
ruling of course eliminates Johnson

tire to other parts where "an old
fighter will be allowed to demonstrate
to the world that his fighting days
are over or that he still possesses his
old stamina"
Considerable anxiety has been
shown here by the boxing fandom as
to the outcome of Romero's telegra

is expected that Dempsey Or his man.
ager will notify Romeor as to what
decision they will come to within a
day or two. Johnson will most likely

tickeld to death for a chance to re-
enter the ring after six years of ac-

ed Press.)-A cabinet council win meet
Friday evening and Saturday the Ger
man government will make known it's
policy on the question of reparations,
DR.. Simons, the foreign minister,

ness of the American government to

acceptable to them.
The foreign minister said:
'"The German government will have
to take decision concerning the es-
tablishment of basis for its PROPOSE
tons. A cabinet council will meet Fri
day evening and tomorrow the govern
ment will make known its policy on the
reparations question. The government
is convinced that in drawing up this
projepei it must go to the extreme lin
its of what the German people can fur
nish in the way of reparations."
The foreign minister added that the
impression in foreign countries that
Germany has underestimated her own
capacity and her possibilities must be
gradually dispelled. In presenting the
reichstag with the American note, he
said it had been received too late for
consideration by the cabinet.
The American government" the for
elgn minister said to the chamber, "has
declined to act as an umpire, but it
has not declined to act as mediator"
lie said the governments statement
on Germany's appeal and the American
answer would be made Saturday after
noon at 3 o'clock.

REBUILDING POSSIBILITIES:
CAPITAL COMMENT WITHHELD
Sirnons Urges London
to Initiate at Once Dis
cussion of Details; Co
operation Is Proffered.

London, April 22.-(By The
Associated ess.)-Germany
has sent a note to the British
government reiterating he1
complete willingness to under
take the reconstruction of de
vastated France. The note
which came from the German
foreign office, was delivered by
the German embassy to the
British foreign office Friday
night and follows:
Germany is absolutely persuaded
that it is unavoidably necessary for
the purpose Of restoring economic
peace throughout the world that the
territories devastated through the war
should be reconstructed and restored.
Until this is done there will be danger
that feelings Of hate will continue to
exist among the nations concerned.
Considerate OF Each.
Germany, therefore, declares her
self once more to be entirely willing
to cooperate in this reconstruction
with all the means and strength at her
disposal, and to take into account in
regard thereto, in every individual case,
each wish Of the powers concerned as
far as is possible"
The note proceeds to enumerate in
great detail, the possibilities of recon-
struction; first, for Germany to take
over specified localities, either as
state undertaking or by directing the
work of national colonization and
settlement association; second, to un-
dertake the work Of clearing, of for
estration, building and repairing, brick
works, and works for the production of
chalk, plaster, cement and other neces-
saries and in the delivery of the neces-
sary machinery and the building ma
terials from Germany: third, to ar
range that all such machinery and ma
terials shall emanate from Germany,
and, fourth, to start Immediately plans
to build at least 25,OOO wooden houses
in the devastated districts before the
cold season begins.
Clauses Specify Execution.
Other clauses of the note specify
that execution of deep and shallow ex-
cavations of all kinds, according to the
French authorities, or otherwise ac-
cording to the wishes of the allied gov
ernments.
The German government expresses
willingness to help in any way pos
sible to take over the cost in paper
marks, the amount to be reckoned
against the reparations account, and
generally to cooperate in every pos
sible manner.
The note is signed by DR.. Walter
Sinons, the German foreign minister.
1t requests the allied governments to

Washington Pending
Offer Declines to Com
ment; Diplomats Ex-
change Opinions.

Washington, April 22.-Any
reparations proposals the Ger.
man government may submit tc
the United States for trans.
mission to the allies must be of
a character those governments
will be willing to consider and
therefore, before being formal
ly presented to the powers as a
whole, their general nature will
probably be made clear to the
governments separately.
Pending reparations offer. which #
was expected might be received Sat
urday as a result of the German cabi-
net council meeting Friday night. off
clal comment was withheld. II was
known, however. that diplomatic repre-
sentatives here of the allied govern
ments had exchanged opinions Friday
on Secretary Hughes reply to Ger
many's appeal for mediation Of the rep
arations dispute. and it was understood
that the situation had been discussed
Informally by officials Of the United
States and those Of the Interested Eu-
ropean nations.
The declaration of DR.. Simons, the
German foreign minister, in the reich
stag that in drawing up a basis Of its
propositions the German poyernm emf
must 60 the extreme limits of what
the German people can furnish in the
way of reparations" was interpreted
here as an acceptance, in principle at
least. of the American position recently
stated that the United States stands
with the allies in holding Germany re-
sponsible for the war and therefore
morally bound to make restitution to
the full extent of her ability to paw.
The American government also, it is
understood, does not propose to dis
associate herself from the allies in the
matter of certain economic adjustments
growing out of the war and therefore
whatever reparations proposals from
Germany she may place before the allied
governments will be first carefully con-
sidered in the light of their common
interests. 1t will not be enough, it
vas explained, that the plan meet the
approval of American students of repa-
rations.
Moreover, it was said Friday night.
the United States will not be sponsor
for any plan suggested by Germany and
will not assume any obligation which
might prove embarrassing in bringing
reparations proposals to the attention
Of the allies.
Copies Of Secretary Hughes reply to
the German memorandum requesting
American mediation were sent FRIDAY
to American diplomats abroad for their |
and were furnished diplo- |
matte representatives here of foreign |
powers for transmission to their gov
The promptness Of the American re-
ply, declining to act as mediator but |
offering to consider bringing to the at
tention Of the allies any reparations
Germany might make, is com
nented upon fayorably here.
Reports Friday night indicated no
prospect Of lessening of the allied de-
nands.
