GERMANY MUST
MEETC0ND|T|0NS
BANKERS SERVE NOTICE ON
BERLIN AUTHORITIES THE
COMMITTEE MEETING In
PARIS ADJOURNS UNTIL
WEDNESDAY

Paris, May 27.-The committee
of international bankers in session
here this evenig served notice on
Germany that further consideration
of $1,000, 100000 loan to the Ger
man government is virtually out Of
the question until Germany ac-
cepts in full the conditions of the
ultimatum in the reparations COM
mission, which expires May, 81, and
also gives adequate guarantees that
the initiation Of Germany's currency
will be stopped Immediately. The
committee then decided to ajourn
until May 81 to await the decision
Of Germany. > ..
The conclusion of the bankers
was arrived at during their meeting
this afternoon which was attended
by Karl Bergman as representative
of Germany. Bergman Immediate
ly telephoned the decision of the
bankers to Berlin.
In reparations circles tonight the
view was advanced that the action
of the fnanciers probably would re-
suit in complete acceptance by Ger
many of all their conditions. 1t was
further stated that acquiescence by
Germany in the reparations COM
missions conditions probably would
be productive of a loan of more
than s1,00O,OG0,OO0 since the
bankers have determined that a
large loan could be arranged under
these circumstances.
The fnanciers completed their in
ouiry into the state of Germany's
finances at this afternoons session
and it was explained that they had
reached point where Germany's
guarantees must be forthcoming be-
fore the committee could discuss
the details of a loan, the security
for it and many other points.
The fact that the international
bankers have been able 10 see good
possibilities for a loan, provided
Germany subscribes TO certain con-
ditions, is regarded very optimisti-
cally in reparations quarters where
it was pointed out tonight that the
German government could hardly
afford to do otherwise than agree.

PROSPERITY NEAR
# NATIONS Join
COTTON MANUFACTURERS TO
HEAR SIR AUCKLAND GED-
DEs GOVERNMENTS MUST
BE WISE IN ACTIONS THEY
TAKE OR REFUSE TO TAKE

Washington, May 27.-Convic-
ton that world prosperity could be
reestablished within the next few
years "provided that the govern
ments are wise in the actions they
take or their refusals to take action
in regard to economic restoration
of other nations" was expressed
tonight by Sir Auckland Geddes,
British ambassador to the United
States, at the annual banquet of the
American Cotton Manufacturers
association.
Sir Auckland emphasized his
hope for closer Anglo-American CO.
operation not only for Che sake of
the two countries, "but as means
to the greater end of cooperation
between the nationals of all ma
TONS"
"Only in that way" he continu-
ed, will be able to secure the at
mosphere necessary to the complete
restoration Of economic prosperity
We (Great Brittany are convinced
that if any nation is to be really
prosperous, no nation can be left to
wallow in starvation and ruin."
The ambassador declared that the
British people have no dearer wish
than they might 60 forward as
friends and cooperators" with
America. incidentally, he said,
there was a wide impression in
England that if the expected trade
development materialized there
would be a shortage of American
raw cotton.

PASSAGE Of TARIFF
FORESEEN BY LODGE.
MASSACHUSETTS SENATOR
PREDICTS APPROVAL BY
ELECTORATE WHEN TIME
COMES TO PASS THE JUDO
MENT

Washington, May 2s.-Congress
will pass "a Republican protective
tariff" before it adjourns Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts, Republi-
can leader, declared today in
statement outlining his views on
the measure now before the SEN
ate. He predicted that the country
would approve the bill "when the
time comes for the electorate to
pass judgment.
Night sessions of the senate will
continue this week under the tariff
program with items in the metal
schedule for immediate business
when work is resumed tomorrow. 1t
was considered improbable that the
move to invoke cloture and addi::
tional means of expediting. tho
measure would be successful. -
'The Republican majority in the
senate" said Mr.. Lodges state
1nent, ':believes the policy Of pro-
lection is the surest road to the
building up and restoration of our
economic interest. That is the pur-
pose of the pending bill"
Senator Lodge denied that the
rates proposed in the permanent
bill would have an adverse . effect
on the volume of trade.
"Our foreign trade today is not
suffering because Of the tariff and
we are living now under the emer-
gency tariff 'sct, which has higher
rates, in many cases, than those
proposed in the finance committee
bill," Seator Lodge declared. "The
Democrats seek to give the impress
sion that the increases in our trade
and trade conditions throughout
the country are due to the Under
wood tariff act, whereas, the fig
ures quoted by Secretary Hoover
show increases in foreign trade
which have developed since the
emergency tariff bill became law.
zone little thing is interesting
and will prove that the resumption
Of our foreign trade is not pre-
vented by the emergency tariff.
During the past four months We.
Imported in Boston 60,000'000
pounds of wool one-seventh of the
total consumption Of the United
States. This wool the importers are
holding in bond, awaiting the pas
sage of the new tariff when they
can get it in under lower rates.
"This importation of wool does
not indicate that the importers are
the very men who expect, under the
new tariff, a boom in business and
they are preparing to take immedl-
ate advantage of the passage OF
this bill"

SENATOR CUMM|NS
NDEMOCRAT|CF|GHT
CUMMINS OF IOWA JOINS UN-
DERWOOD OF ALABAMA AND
STANLEY OF KENTUCKY IN
OPPOSING PROVISIONS OF THE
TARIFF BILL

Washington, May 27.-The senate
came today to its first big fight over
individual schedules in the tariff bill
Rates recommended by the finance
committee majority on some steel
products came under the fire from
both the Republican and Democratic
sides of the chamber, but as rapidly
as votes were taken the committee
was sustained.
Senator Cummins of Iowa, one OF
the Republican senators who fought
the Payne-Aldrich bill, opened the
fight on the steel plates and announc-
ed that he would have amendments
to offer to many other duties in the
schedule. Senator Underwood of
Alabama, Democratic leader and Sen
ator Stanley of Kentucky conducted
the Sght for the minority.
Asserting that for years the Unit
ed ...e. corporation had fixed the
price on substantially all commodl-
ties It produced or in which it dealt
Senator Cummins said the intimacy
in the industry was SO close that some
thing besides competition would have
to be depended upon to fix reasonable
prices.
Il do rot want to go to the point
to which we are being forced-that
of the government fixing prices" said
Senator Cummins, therefore l am
in favor of adjusting the schedules
to permit fair competition from
abroad, but l do not know that that
will be effective
The Iowa senator and Senators
Underwood and Stanley argued that
the United States could and did pro-
duce steel cheaper than any other
country in the world, and insisted that
tariff duties were unnecessary. Sena-
tor Stanley said the United States
was selling in the markets of the
world and that in the face of that the
United States Steel corporation want
ed congress. to guarantee its profits
against any possible competition
from foreign lands.
Senator Underwood characterized
the rates on steel plates as "a shame
and fraud on the American people"
He urged that congress let the steel
industry stand, as it was a giant in
the world of industry and not "wet
nurse it like baby in crib"
In the course of his address, Sena-
tor Cummins disclosed that he was
one of the leaders on the majority
side, who sought to prevent general
revision of the tariff at this time
He said that this was not the time
for such legislation because chaotic
conditions in the world made it i'm,
possible to obtain accurate informa,
tion on which to act. Senator Walsh
(Democrat) of Massachusetts declar.
ed Republican senators were hearing
from home and were receiving letters
and resolutions proving the people
had become aware that the Democrat.
ic contention that the bill would in
crease prices was correct. In this
connection the Massachusetts senator
read letter from Julius C. Moss Of
Boston, vice president of the Nation
al association of Retail Clothiers
stating as a result of agitation rela
tive to the proposed increase in the
tariff wool prices of cloth had advanc
ed SO cents yard.
Already, Mr.. Moss said, the ad
vance IN cloth cost meant an in
crease of 81 to So for each suit o1
