The United States has pre-

ments no proposal for an
American commission to pass
upon the German reparations
questions, it was officially an
nounced at the State Depart
ment last night.
In well-informed circles, how
ever, it is believed that tentative
proposals of ti.is sort have been
made by European interests. Sec
retary Of Commerce Hoover, ac-
cording to reports received from
both London and New York, has
been suggested as head of the COM
mission.
HUGHES MAKES STATEMENT.
Secretary Hughes formal state
ment regarding the report that the
Hoover commission plan had been
suggested by the United States
reads:
The Department of State can
not discuss tentative proposals
which are made to it with respect
to the European situation. The re-
port that this Government has pre-
scented to other governments a pro-
posal for an American commission
Is unfounded. OF course. il follows
that no assent of any other gov

been received"

tries that a definite settlement
Of the reparations problem would
be a considerable gain on the

natural that business organiza-
