hibited. Mr.. Minton got his first
glimpse of her at the Harrodsburg

AUTO ACCIDENT

As the result of an auto accident
Sunday morning, Dewey Wyrick is
suffering from three broken ribs, a
cut face and numerous bruises and
J. Frank Golden is on crutches with
a sprained ankle and Robert Flet-
cher has a scratched nose. The auto,
a Studebaker. was being driven by
Dewey Wyrick and they were on the
other side of the Stamper place on
the Dixie Highway when the hind
wheel evidently hung in a gutter
causing the car to swerve ana head
directly down the bank for some 80
feet where it struck a woven wire
fence, headed over and then rolled
sideways several times. The marvel
is that some of the occupants ere not
laid away in the cemetery after such
an experience. All the wheels of the
machine were torn off, the tenders
were twisted, the body of the car
was badly injured and the shields
torn off. About everything that
could happen to the outside Of a car
happened. The wreck was brought
in Monday night.

Special Cable 10 THE NEW YORK HERALD
COPYRIGHT, 1921, by THE NEW York HERALD
New York Herald Bureau.
Paris, May s.
Great satisfaction was expressed
here over the note OF Secretary of State
Hughes to Germany turning back Ber-
Inns reparations proposals and suggest
ing that Germany apply direct TO the
Allies. The French Government sees in
this American reply that consideration
was given to the views OF France pre-
sented to Washington.
While 1t is recognized here that the
United States would prefer solution
of the problem other than the occupa-
ton OF the Ruhr, the French appear
confident that President Harding VIII
see that no other solution exists.
The Reparations Commission. which
must notify Germany OF the total
amount Of the Allies demands and the
scheme of payment before Friday night.
has reached a decision regarding the
unpaid balance of 120o00o0.00 marks
gold which was due May under the
treaty provisions. The commission has
addressed a letter TO the German War
Burdens Commission saying that Ger
many is in default to the extent Of at
least II, 900, coo 900 marks, and advises the
German commission that immediate
notice Of this default is being given 10
each Of the Powers interested in ac-
cordance with paragraph IL of annex 2,
part of the treaty.

debt commission scheme, has practically
been abandoned Custom receipts. new
erthelsss. form the largest basis Of Sc
curity under the bonds.
Also 1t was significantly stated to-
night that should the custom receipts
ever fall short Of supplying the necessary
funds the Ailies reserve the liberty OF
levytng on ''any other resources of Ger
many which the Reparation Commission
is prepared to accept" This apparently
envisages railways. natural resources,
posts. telegraphs mad public utilities or
even securities OF other semi-public or
private corporations.
1t was empha sized that at the begin
ming this Plan imposes smaller annuities
than any other so far proposed either
in Paris, Boulogne or elsewhere. But
there was nothing said about the plans
end For its operation IL was said every
effort would be made to carry it out so
as to leave full play for German initia-
tive and energy, reposing as much re-
sponsibility In German hands as was
consistent with due proof of German
good faith.
Regarding the burden imposed on Ger
many by the plan. it was pointed out
that England has already. in one year
paid off f240, 100000 of her war debt.
and Germany ought to be able to do the
embodied in a statement for world con-
sumption, which will accompany the Tor
NAL protocol tomorrow

GERMANS OWE 268 MILLION
FOR u. S. ARMY ON RHINE
If America Does Not Ratify
Versailles Pact 1t Stands
as Separate Debt.

Special cable to THE NEW YoaK HERALD
Copyright. 1921. bv THE New YORK Herald.
New York Herald Bureau
Paris, May j.
Germany on May / owed the United
States for the expenses OF the American
Army OF Occupation s26s. $4,000. less
the value of the ships seized by the
American Government. which has not
yet been officially fixed. She has paid
since the occupation 17.16c.ooo paper
marks in foodstuffs and materials FUR
nished the United States forces.
Among the materials were 5000 mo-
tor trucks purchased by the Coblenz
army from the Germans. despite the
fact that the United states had sold
France and Poland many thousands OF
these cars at prices lower than was
credited to the Germans in the trans
actions.
The foregoing figures were obtained
from official records to-day by the New
YORK HERALD correspondent. Unless
America should ratify the Versailles
treaty, this balance Will have to be made
into a separate account between the
United States and Germany. II Amer
lea ratifies or accepts the financial
clauses of the treaty II would be added
to Germany's total debt up to May i
and, the same as the charges Of all
other nations for occupation, the ex-
penses would be charged to Germany
with interest at per cent. after May l
by the Preparations Commission. these
charges being exclusive of the 10000
600. 900 gold marks fixed last week.
So far as its work and the occupation

FRENCH MILITARY HEADQUARTERS,

mander of the allied forces on the
Rhine, said to-day that four infantry
divisions would be needed in the Ruhr
operations besides a division of cavalry
commanded by Gen. Simon, now at Dus-
seldorf The units would be drawn for
the most part from the class of 1919.
Instructions from Paris to-day post
poned the operations until further
orders, but preparations are going on.
Gen. Degoutte said that If he received
orders on May IS to proceed with the
occupation he would be ready to move
In few hours. There is general i'm
preston. however. IN military circles

Continued from ffSt rage
retired. This interest will be devoted to
new bonds subsequently issued. Hence,
until the entire amount of bonds is
issued there will be no method of COM
putting what the total life of the entire
scheme will be or what will be the total
amount Germany will have to pay ex-
tended through the years.
Experts Admission.
Experts frankly admit this cannot be
calculated now, and they boast that this
very fact is one of the great advantages
of their scheme. i'm that Il will prompt
Germany to make greater ana greater
efforts to clear up her debt to the Allies
Nevertheless, while Germany Is pay
ing a 6 per cent. debt service. amount
ing to f150O00.oO0 (about 5000. 100000
marks gold) annually, upon the amoun-
Of bonds which will have to be issued by
December Of this year. she will only be
paying on the unissued balance l per
cent. of the export tax, or, calculated on
her 1913 exports, only two-tenths or l
per cent. Thus the struggle will be be-
tween the Reparation Commission order
ing an issue of bonds, which the COM
mission will do as Germany's prosperity
rises as indicated by the export tax re-
turns, and Germany's efforts to redeem
these bonds.
Again upon the basis of the 1913 Ger
man exports, it is calculated that $780,
100000 (about 2,000.00o.000 marks
gold). plus the 25 per cent. export tax,
will equal 1912, 900 (about 6.240,-
00O,0 marks gold). Another fS.500.-
600 (about 170.000,0Oo marks gold)
from the extra per cent. on exports
for interest on the unissued debt brings
the total which Germany will have to
pay annually to f320,4S0,000 (about g.
400 900, 900 marks gold).
Based on this contribution, there
would be a further issue of bonds as
scofl as such contribution was collected
warranting further interest charges
The issue would be f2,409. 100000 (about
1892. .000. 900 marks gold. or stil only
third of the total amount of $3.50

eold) charged against Germany. This
would be the situation provided the Ger
man exports reached the level OF 1913.
It Is a situation in which one-third OF
the debt apparently is uncovered and
only per cent Of the sinking fund pro-
vided on the covered part.
On the other hand, IL the export tax
is Improbable and the debt service
charges on the bonds issued by Novenn-
ber are not met there Is nothing Ger
many can do but go on paying on that
scale practically In perpetuity. This Is
to be embodied in the protocol to-
morrow.
The Supreme Council will send notice
to Germany Of the guarantees they de-
mand to back up the bonds. 1t was

Official circles believe that Germany
will anticipate the threatened ultimatum
from the allied Governments by making
directly to them clear and definite pro-
posals to meet her obligations.
II was not clear to-day whether or
not the State Department and the Su-
prene Council had reached any under
standing before the forwarding OF Sec
retary Hughes's reply TO the recent
German proposals. There Is. however,
the best reason for believing that Sec
retary Hughes has Informally advised

to take if a policy Of coercion should
