U. S. AND ALLIES SPLIT
ON WAR DAMAGES
America Insists Upon Freedom
to Deal With Germany as
It Sees Fit.
By the Associated Press.

PARIS. May 1.-The insistence Of
the United States government that it
be left free to take any action it sees
fit with Germany for the recovery OF
war damages to American citizens, in
addition to the expenses of Its occu-
patton of the EhineIand has caused
a momentary split with the allies in
the negotiations for settlement Of the
method of repaSing the Army costs.
Eliot Wadsworth. the American rep
resentative. is awaiting the next move
of the allied delegates, as no further
meeting was arranged when the con-
ference broke up yesterday.
The arrangement which had been
practically completed, was held up
only because the allies desired the
privilege of cancellation in case the
United States took measures to re-
cover direct from Germany amounts
claimed for damages, in addition to
the army costs. Mr.. wadsworth
stoutly refused TO allow the question
of damages to be IN any way tied
up with that of the occupational ex-
penses.
''The terms of the settlement SO far
agreed upon provide for priority to
the future payments in cash from
Germany, this to be applied to liqui-
dation Of the American Army costs
in twelve annual installments Of
about s0,000.0o0 gold marks each"

On Liquor Rule
BY the Associated Press.


LONDON, May 1.-The decision
of the Supreme Court of the
United States barring vessels
from transporting liquor within
the American three-mi limit
was generally declared in shipping
circles today to be one Of the
hardest blows suffered by the Brit
ish transatlantic companies and
liquor interests since the inaugu-
ration of prohibition in America.
Measures to meet the new situ-
alton ere already under consid-
Grafton.
There are two schools Of thought
on the issue among British ship
ping men. One strenuously OPP
poses interference by the United
the other regards the Supreme
Court ruling as a logical devel-
opment Of the prohibition move
indicate they will urge immediate
abandonment of all attempts to
carry liquor in American terrific
rial waters.
Among those who advocated
making the best of the situation
are a number who favor estab-
lishment Of supply ships, to be
stationed outside the three mile
limit to furnish the transatlantic
boats with liquor after they leave
American ports.
