INDEMNITY TOO|
Bic TO DISCUSS
Can't Pay, Says Bonn-German
Cabinet Hopes Allies Will
Heed New Proposals.
BY FRANK 4. MASON,
Interna tional News Service.

BERLIN, Feb. 1.-The German
cabinet, In a long session presided
over by President EDert. reached
the conclusion that the allied In
demnity proposals cannot be dis
cussed by Germany and the hope
was expressed that further confer
ences can be arranged with the En-
tente in an effort to reach a solu-
tion, according to the well-informed
LOkal AnZeiger today.
BRINGS FACTIONS TOGETHER.
The enormous sum of indemnity
demanded from Germany by the
allies has had the effect of healing,
for the time being at least. the hos
tilities between the various German
political factions.
Foreign Minister Simeons confer
red during the morning with party
leaders to agree upon a unified Reich
stag this afternoon outlining the
policy of the government.
1t was rumored that DR.. Simeons
might resign as foreign minister. but
this was denied by the Lokal An
zeiger. This newspaper pointed out
that interviews with leaders OF the
coalition and socialist parties reveal
ed that all agree that the allied in
demnity terms are OF such nature
that Germany cannot enter into q
discussion of them.
The newspapers were again filled
with hostile comment, taking the
view that the sum fixed by theg allies
Is so big that Germany cannot meet

CLARK ENDOWS'
CORCORAN ART.
Former Senator Gives $780,
600 to Be Used for Cash
Awards to U. S. Painters.

A gift of 100000 was received
today by the Corcoran Art Gallery
from William A. Clark, former SEN
ator from Montana, and a noted
art patron of international reputa-
ton.
The gift is in the nature of an
endowment fund, the income from
which will be used in the awarding
of prizes to American artists COM
peting in the biennial exhibitions Of
oil paintings held by the Corcoran
Art Gallery.
LARGEST CASH AWARDS.
According to officials of the Gal
lery. the prizes Will be the largest
cash awards offered in America. and
probably in the world.
At the last exhibition of American
oil paintings. held at the Corcoran
Art Gallery in January, 1920. Senator
Clark gave four cash prizes amount
ing to 5000, He also has been n gen
erous contributor to previous exhibit
tions and has, in all. already given
S31 900 in prize money to the Cor
coran Art Gallery IN addition to his
gift today Of 100000.
HAS WORLD SCOPE.
1t is thought that this large gift
win not only stimulate interest among
American artists In the United states,
but throughout the world. The ex-
hibitions, while confined to original
oil paintings by living American ar
lists, also applies to American artists
living In other counties.
The last exhibition OF OIL paintings
at the Corcoran Art Gallery attract
ed wide public interest. And WAS the
most successfu1 exhibition ever held
here. Forty-five pictures were sold,
aggregatings the sum OF *6I9o0.
which. it Is believed. established
record for sales from an exhibition OF
this nature.
The next exhibition Of oil paintings.
1t was stated, would probably be held

duct Appointees. "

President Wilson was asked to-
day to call the United States Senate
In special session on March 4 in or
der that IL may induct the Harding
Administrations appointees into
office.
1t is assumed that the President
will comply with the request, as 1t
Is customary procedure for the
Senate to meet In special session on
inaugural day in order to confirm
Cabinet appointments and such
others as the incoming President
cares TO announce at that time.
Senator Oscar w. Underwood OF
Alabama. the minority leader. called
at the White House today at the
request of Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge of Massachusetts. the major
ity leader, to lay the request before
President Wilson.
So far as Is known at this time
the session on March 4 will be brief
and perfunctory. Vice President
Marshall will swear in his success
sor, Calvin Coolidge; the Harding
Cabinet appointments will be con-
firmed. and IT Is then likely that the
session will adjourn.
1t Is the intention OF President
elect Harding to call a special ses-
sion of the Sixty-seventh Congress

lease.
Colonel Stone, representing General
Allen, commander OF the American
forces, has formally apologized to
the German Rhineland commission

the attempt to arrest Bergdcll by
