No Berlin Envoy Until

German Cabinet Believes Call
May Come for Temporary
Charge d'Affaires

BERLIN. July 10 (By The Associated
Press) THE German Cabinet will
postpone action with regard to the ap-
pointment of an ambassador to the
United States until formal treaty of
peace has been concluded with that
country. The Cabinet has not yet ar
rived at any decision as to the ambas
sador and has only informally consid-
cred the available candidates.
At the Foreign Office it was said to-
day that the government was not max
ing appointments for diplomatic posts
which do not yet exist and that the
Cabinet especially was not DESTROYS of
disposing of the Washington ambassa-
dcrship prematurely, as it was not UNI
likely the situation might call for the
temporary appointment of charge
d'affaires.
Professor Lujo Brentano, whom the
Cabinet has been considering informal
ly. among others, is not looked upon as
likely appointee in view of his ad-
vanced years.

BISMARCK, N. D., July 13.-More
than four thousand checks drawn by
political subdivisions or by the stat,
itself on funds deposited in the Bank
OF North Dakota have been refused
payment by that bank since the policy
OF registering" checks was adopted
The checks were turned down be
cause the bank is without ready cash
to meet the demands, according to Fred
w. Cathro, manager of the bank, He
said that Withdrawals have exceeded
the income, making necessary the pol
icy OF refusing to pay checks.
The Bank of North Dakota is u state
owned institution, which is custodian
OF all state funds and in which is de-
posted the funds of many political
subdivisions of the state. Heavy with
drawals by the latter when the law
was changed to make depositing of
funds optional rather than compulsory
coupled with heavy investments the
bank made in farm mortgages and in
advances to the State Industrial Com
mission for the construction of a -four
mill and elevator, and the further fact
that S1,250,000 is tied up in a chain of
closed banks. are directly responsible
for the fact that the bank is refusing
to honor checks of it's depositors.

Resolutions expressing vote Of

United States Senator La Toilette for
his action in opposing military opera

Mr.. Hurley expressed himself as

British merchant marine fleet and 65
or 70 per cent of the Norwegian ships
are tied up and the same is true of
other nations. This is a worldwide
matter and not a national issue.

Feeling Down to Bathing Suit
Is Held Undressing i'm Public

So long as Mrs. Richard w. Jones

women to undress in public.
Mrs. Jones is regarded as chief CEN

in front of the Jones veranda. Mr..
Jones was there, too, but he didn't do
anything except corroborate his wife.
His wife called the police. BY the

w allace Returns
Says France Wants
German Terms Kept
Teutons Must Pay and Dis
arm, Is Demand; No Mill
tary Ambition but Desire
for Peace Prompts Nation

After an absence of two years and
three months Hugh Wallace, retiring
American Ambassador to France, re-
turned to this country yesterday on
the Olympic and will go tomorrow to
Washington. where he will call upon
the President and Secretary of State
Hughes before leaving for his home
in Tacoma, Wash, for long rest.
,"There is no military ambition in
France" said MIR. Wallace at the Ritz
Carlton last night "There is a certain
military spirit in France, which is
based upon grim determination that
France will protect herself
France wants the Treaty of Yer,
sailles executed. She demands that Ger
many carry out her solemn written
obligations, that is to say, pay and
disarm
'All of France is at work, her face
is turned toward the pursuits of peace
her thoughts are of restoring her dew
astated regions and of rehabilitating
her credit"
Questioned regarding the sentiment
for universal disarmament in France
to-day, the former Ambassador de-
clared it would be indicate on his
part to discuss this subject until he
had seen the President. He had long
interview with Premier BRAND before
his departure.
While in mid ocean Mr.. Wallace ex-
changed radiograms of most cordial
nature with his successor, Myron I
Herrick.
"Mr. Herrick and | are great friends,
he continued. "He has an extraordi.
nary popularity in FRANCE and all France
awaits his arrival To acclaim him."
Mr.. Wallace was accompanied by his
wife and his niece. Miss Sally Beecher
who makes her home with them. Mrs
Wallace, who was one of the most in.
defatigable Red Cross workers at Wal
ter Reed Hospital in Washington dur.
ing the war, still maintains a warm
spot in her heart for the wounded
veterans and will probably take ar
active interest in their welfare.
There is possibility that Mr.. Wal
lace will meet the French Ambassador
Jules Jusserand. here to-day, as the
latter sails for France on La Savoie al
noon.

the Mexican claims commission was
established.
The Mexican claims commission has
made no recent announcement of the
amount Of the claims filed with it, but
late last year the total was given as
more than 100000 pesos, of which
more than 20,000,O0O pesos represented
claims from foreigners.
Not more than four American claims
have been filed with the Mexican claims
commission, according to information
available here, although it is known
that numerous claimants are merely
awaiting suitable time to submit
their requests for naturalization. If
a mixed commission is named it is
thought likely that such foreigners
will use it as medium for seeking
restitution.

Borah Blocks
Plan TO Refund
Foreign Loans
Insists Penrose Bill Canno,
Pass Unless Policy of Adj
rninistration Under the
Legislation Is Made Clear
Mellon Asked to Explain
To Appear Before Finance
Committee To-day; Pro-
longed Debate Forecast

WASHINGTON. July 13.--With the
penrose bill, intended to give Secre-
sary of the Treasury Mellon broad
powers in refunding foreign obhga-
TORS, pending in the Finance Com
mittee and soon to be reported to the
SENATE. Senator Borah served notice
on the floor to-day that the measure
could not be passed unless it was made
clear what the Administration intended
to do as to the foreign debt under the
proposed legislation.
Debate over the foreign debt policy
WIS stirred up and the plan of defer
ring interest payments criticized. SEN
ator Smoot said it was purposed to
put off payments
Senator Borah's statement was taken
as warning to the Senate leaders who
are backing the Penrose bill that he
ard some Senators who will support
his view will fight the bill unless more
definite information is laid before
them as to the refunding policy, and
especially the deferring of interest
payments.
The bill came up briefly in the FL
nance Committee to-day. 1t was decided
to call Secretary Mellon before the
committee again tomorrow and thus
enable Senators to question him on
the policy of refunding.
To-day's discussion in the Senate
was looked upon as forerunner of a
stormy debate and probably a pro-
t,acted one before the measure is
passed 1t is expected eventually to
be put through, though some amend
ments are possible which will tend to
restrict the authority conveyed in
its present form.
Senator Borah started the discussion
when he inserted in the record ex-
The London Times of June Is. These
Indicated that an agreement had been
reached postponing for fifteen years
payment of the interest or the Allied
debt and also postponing payment Of
the debt. Senator Borah asked if the
Finance Committee had any such in
formation.
THE Secretary of the Treasury"
said Senator Smcot, twas before the
finance Committee and the question
was asked if there was any agreement.
The Secretary said no agreement had
been made"
II know there has been no formal
agreement, but is there tentative I'M
derstanding?" asked Mr.. Borah.
az know of none. l doubt if there
is replied Mr.. Smoot. II may say,
however, that if the bill passes there
is no question there will be an ex-
tension of time for the payment of
interest and debt"
Senator Watson, of Georgia, asked
Senator Smoot if he had not. told the
Senate he was not in favor of payment
of the foreign debt. Senator Smoot
replied that this was his opinion, and
he was not in favor of immediate pay
ment because it would hurt both the
Allied powers and the United States
by its effect on commerce and exchange.
Senator Watson asked if the Allied
lean had been advanced "out of the
pockets of the American people or
by men of wealth, such as J. P. Morgan,
J. Ogden Armour and John Wanamaker.
Senator Smoot said it had come from
the people and in due time would come
back to them.
