Government officials, both in Con
gress and in the executive depart
ments. still view with considerable
amazement and grave misgivings the
final action of the Allied Preparations
Commission in saddling onto Ger
many the greatest financial load in
the worlds history.
Some surprise also was manifested
! that the allies would attempt to con-
troll an American loan 10 Germany, as
reported in press dispatches, in case
such a loan were contemplated. While
there is no disposition on the part of
this Government to grant a loan to
Germany, the consensus OF opinion ex-
pressed today was that II Germany
did come to America for a loan. the
attitude OF the allies would have very
| little effect on this Governments
policy.
In some high quarters today the
indemnity asked of Germany-$56,-
600. 100000 and a tax OF IL per cent
on her exports-was unqualifiedly
termed absurd.

one high official, intimately con-

work of past Paris conferences at
which the matter of reparations was

Clayton was formerly connected
with the Department of Labor. For

Later he was made assistant director
general OF the United States Employ

Clayton said he found that from De-

were about $3.50 warrants issued by
the Department OF Labor, and that
only about 3 900 Of the men named In

many illegally arrested were held In

evidence against these men. said
Clayton, was a typewriter sheet OF
paper, unsworn TO, and often unsign-
ed by any person to show where II
came from or who made the accuse
ton. on such pretense OF evidence as
this, men were arrested and sought TO
be deported.
"BAD PUBLIC Policy"
Clayton declared he believed that
those atrocities and the unjust sui
fering and the disrespect for law set
by the Department was an extreme
bad public policy and ought to be Of
ficially condemned"

knowledge of the many difficulties
and diverse points of view that must
be taken into account His interest is
real and earnest and practical. so tha.
his address did much to rouse the
members TO the possibility of making
some contribution to the betterment

differences of opinion But under the
tactful leadership of Captain Carpen-
