Conditions Make 1t Impossible

Especial Correspondent Of Ths
Evening WORLDLY


WASHINGTON, April IS Copy
night. I99D -- Great Britain and
France will refuse to accept the new
German proposal for the payment OF
war indemnity.
Although the United States Govern
ment has not yet officially trans.
mitted the German note to the Allies
complete copies OF the document are
in the hands OF Prime Minister Iloyo
George and Premier BRAND
Both the French and British regard
the proposal as unacceptable and as
simply a disiuso method OF re
opening the entire Treaty OF Yer
satlles with the United States as :.
party to the transaction.
The new proposal differs from all
that have preceded in that II appar-
emily meets the sums asked by the
Allies, but under such conditions as
10 make II impossible from the Allied
viewpoint TO collect the amounts
promised.
The Germans, for example, com
pletcly Wipe the slate clean 0f al
previously made and ap-
proach the subject from a new angle
by aSlCing that all occupying armies
be withdrawn and that when the re-
paratfon amount Is definitely rixeo
there shall be no more "aanctLOns" OF
penalties. This would mean the az.

JUST FISH STORIES

From Peninsula Inn guests
this resort being located on Kat
han lake, comes the stories of
now the big ones are PLAYING
havie with the artificial lure.
as well as with the live variety
which John Love and a few more
old-time guides swear by as real
killers of big 'uns. Just so the
big ones are coming along with
the thrills, even if they keep from
getting all shared up with the
fellows tackle, gives the sport
the incentive TO keep at it until
one Is landed so skillfully that
Old Sir Izaak gives 'em encore for
their sticktoitiveness. Alta boy.
Anyhow, Chas. Schroter has a
record fellow with his 24-pounder
that is, he did until c. Z. And
erson came along and nabbed one
which went 81 pounds. On top
of all that excitement, Mine Host
Hayden, who has acquired the
"know-how" of going after the
fellows who have inhabited Kat
han for the past century or so,
drops his lure in a favored spot
the other day and yanks out
two muskies near the twenty
pound mark. You see, fellows,
the fish are thick as soup in every
dad-binged lake in this region of
water, but you must go after
them hard, and with the deter
mination of hooking 'em whether
they want TO be hooked or not.
The porch variety of fishermen
never yet have landed a fish.
