Genoa, April 14.-Germany today
put the Genoa conference on the
road to one of its four equal goals
financial reconstruction OF Europe
by submitting prompt, brief, reply
accepting integrally the allied ex-
perts financial proposals.
The German reply which was re-
duced to 100 words from nearly 300
pages of documents, insisted, how
ever, that reparations must be con
sidered in the balancing of national
budgets.
Submit Allied Plan.
Allied experts submitted a broad
general plan for basis for the
Genoa conference. This has been
considered for three days by mem
bers OF the four sub-divisions-po
ltical, economic, financial and trans
portation.
The Germans and Russians were
given an opportunity to submit
counter proposals in each division.
The German reply, presented today,
enables the financial commission to
get under way. The Russians made
their suggestions yesterday.
Work of the political commission
the most important since it deals
with Europe's relations with Russia
was still delayed today. The Rus
sian delegation asked for an addi-
tional "a hours, in which to submit
their counter proposals, which are
understood to be lengthy.
Observing Good Friday.
Little business was done at Genoa
today, most of the delegations OBJ
serving Good Friday.
The German reply said Germany
accepted integrally the allied plan
adding it was considered impossible
to balance budgets by considering
only commercial balances.
Foreign payments also must be
considered, the brief German reply
stated.

Washington, April 1i.-Woodrow
Wilson and his former secretary and
devoted friend, Joseph p. Tumulty,
have come to a parting Of the ways
over Wilson's reputation of the
now famous message delivered by
Tumulty to the Jeffersonian banquet
in New York last Saturday.
The big question in political cir
cles Is whether Wilson in the near
future will regret his curt letter dis
owning the message and take public
steps to restore their long standing
friendship.
Tumulty said today that he in
tends to do nothing more about the
matter but his friends believe Will
son will not permit the "misunder-
standing" as Tumulty calls 1t CON
tinue.

Washington, April 14.-A "misun-

close friend, Joseph p. Tumulty,
caused tremendous stir in political
circles here today.
Wilson's curt reputation of a

Saturday night as coming from Will

The dinner developed into some
