New York Herald Bureau,
Paris, April I6.
Ii is believed in official circles here
that President Harding will soon re-
sumo direct contact with the Repara-
tons Commission. 1t is understood
that while w. C. Boyden, American
representative on the peace commits
sion, is travelling in central Europe.
orders have been received at the en-
bassy to retain the American observers
and the office staff intact until further
orders.

New York Herald bureau,
Berlin, April I6.
Germanys new proposals in con-
nection with reparations have already
left Berlin on a c1rcuitous route TO
Washington. 1t Is understood here
that the Pope Is forwarding Germany's
proposals TO the United States. II Is
said also that he will suggest to
President Harding that they serve as
basis for the opening of new repara-
tions negotiations between Germany
and the Entente Allies.
The first questions now being CON-
sidered here are whether they will
prove interesting enough to engage
Americas support, and IL so. whether
America will hinder France from APP
plying the new penalties on May I.
The Zeituno am Mittag, in admitting
that "a third Power" placed facilities
ut Germany's disposal to despatch the
details of the new reparations scheme
TO America, denies that this can be
termed mediation or an attempt TO
obtain mediation, and so, 1t argues. the
action does not come within the scope
OF the refusal of the Prime Minister
OF France, NJ. BRAND, to permit any
arbitration of the French reparationS
stand.
Won't Alter French Policy.
II was aufhorfta fivaIv cto4ad a.,
French official circles here to-day that
while France has nothing in principle
against Germany assuming a part OF
the allied debt to the United States,
the agreement of America to such an
arrangement could not alter Frances
policy toward Germany or prevent
France taking further measures look
ing 10 her security.
Apparently the principal French con-
Germ here Is whether the United States
will deal with Germany dirAc.
