Long Guessing Contest As to Germany's Abili-
 ty Ended, They Say

NEW YORK, April 2S.-Charles G. Dawes of Chicago, Owen D. Young of New York and Henry NJ. Robinson of Los Angeles, authors of the reparation commissions latest plan for the re- stabilization of Europe. arrived on the Leviathan today. convinced that early adoption of their program was impera- tive.
 We must cease talking about re- sponsibility for the war" said one of the trio. I've must consider it as a calamity that has occurred and one that all who participated in must help pay for. Germany, as well as the all lies, must pay her share. Everybody must get together and discharge the debt burdens incurred during the war or we'll go broke together
 Mir. Dawes and Mir. Robinson de- clined to discuss any subject which bore even remotely upon the repara- tions plan. They insisted that expres- sion of their views be confined to q statement prepared before the Levia- than reached quarantine. They dele gated to Mir. Young. whom MT. Dawes described as the constructive brains of our committee" the duty of answer ing questions.
 Mir. Young Speaks
 Mfr. Young cid so, freely, but with the understanding that he was not to be interpreted as seeking to ad any new ideas to the so-called Dawes res port; that he might. however. help cloak some of it's provisions in work-a- day terms.
 TO the Question. how long it would ha aAe plan hsers A DOT ed by the allies and Germany before 1t could be- come operative and it's predicted bene- fieial results to world economic condi- tiona become effective, he said: CD It depended upon how promptly the Reich stag passed enabling legislation and, (21 How promptly the separations com mission, or whoever was delegated, nominated personnel for executing the plan.
 Mir Young declared the plan, probably would be "a very largo issue" in the impending German and French cleo tions.
 Concerning the possibilities of float ing the proposed $2O0, ,000,00 loan for Germany, he said America should handle $100.000.O00 of that amount: {: that England would be good for $75,- 100000 and nations of continental Flu rope for the remaining $25,000,000.
 Mir. Young hesitated to discuss the prospect that the plan might fail or general adoption.
 Must Be Used At Once
 '"It is hard to know what might be the alternative to adoption" he said. But the committees solution. if accepted at all must be accepted immediately. he asserted, because economic conditions change so rapidly in Europe that the grounds upon which the plan was con Structed are constantly shifting.
 Suppose that while acceptance was delayed the rentenmark should break. Germany would go into chaos and our plan would be valueless. Acceptance of the plan and flotation of the loan would assure the stability of rentenmark and a corresponding stability of all European financial and economic life"
 Ends Guessing Match
 The chief advantage of the report was, said Mir. Young. that it ''ended q tive-year-long guessing match among economists concerning how much goods Germany could export. and how much of the proceeds could be diverted to repafations. The committee tackled the problem from more logical angle, Ire said it first determined what taxes the German taxpayer would have to pay
