Whether or Not It

Washington Feb. o4.-Secretary
DENLY of the navy department made
it clear today that unless the repara-
tons figures would cover the con-
expense to the United States govern
ment would be involved, the reques;
Of the navy department for the Yep
pelin would be Withdrawn.
Under the terms of the treaty Of
Versailles, Germany was required tc
deliver IS Zeppelin airships to the al
lied and associated governments to be
pro-ratcd among them. The Unit ID
States was to have received two of
these ships. After delivery Of six
vessels to the allied ernmen:s,
however, the remaining seven in Ger
many were illegally destroyed by the
Germans and the rerarations commits
sion has required that German
should replace these seven either by
construction or in cash payments. Tho
German officials have now come for
ward. however. with a statement as TO
the costs of construction of a modern
Zeppelin for civil use such as desired
by the United States. This estimate
it was explained today. is greater than
the valuation placed by the rcparatiors
commission upon the two Zcppelins
originally allotted to the United States
hut not delivered.
Secretary DENLY has asked the state
department to conduct negotiations
which will establish definitely the
cost to the United States involved.
should the proposal that Germany
build Zeppelin for the American
government be carried out. If that
cost is greater than the amount owed
to the United States by Germany for
the two craft destroyed Mr.. Dcnbv
said today nc would recommend with
drawal of the request for the new air.
ship.
The secretary made clear that he
was very much in doubt personally as
to the military value of large sized
Girisible aircraft, though he believed
the department should press forward
construction of the Fri. now building
by the navy, because Of the enginee~-
ing and other valuable information
on tho subject that might be thus OBJ
tanned.
The sympathy Of the French gov
ernmcnt and nation and relatives of
men who lost their lives in the co.,
lapse of the Roma was expressed today
by Ambassador Jusserand. The am
bassador called at the state depart
ment under instructions from Prcsi-
dent of Millerand of France: and per-
conally expressed the official condo
