Expectation in Nste
to Britain.

Berlin, April f9.-Gcrmany is pre-
pairing to demand restoration OF full
sovereignty" over her occupied terri
tories. as soon as the reparations qucs-

ritory when the PREPARATIONS negotia-
tons get under way in Paris. Strese-
mann. it is also believed, will hold
that all German prisoners must be
returned as soon as the PREPARATIONS

cd by Won Helfferich will have no If
feet on the program decided upon by
the foreign minister, according to in
formation given OUT.
The nationalist have been stress
ing especially that Germany will vir-
tually lose control of her railways if
the Dawes recommendations are put
into effect, but Stresemann does. not
hold this view and believes the Ger
man lines can produce the full amount
of revenue for reparations estimated
by the Dawes experts.

speech today began the government
campaign for support Of its action in
accepting the Dawes report, declaring
1.-THE full economic and financial unity

TRAFFIC BAN LET DOWN
Arizona Governor Notifies Mayors Em-
barge Still in Effect.

Yuma, Ariz,, April 1s.-Although
Governor Hunt temporarily lifted the
ban on vchicular traffic from Cali-
fornia into Arizona, he has sent ness
ages to mayors of a number OF Cali
fOrnia-AriZona- border towns informs
ing them that the embargo will be re-
placed automatically as soon as the
large number of tourists marooned at
this point are across the line.
The ban was let down today to
relieve the distress of 900 tourists
marooned across the line on the Cali
fornia side.
Governor Hunt instructed military
guards at the border to permit the
travellers to pass after they had been
given thorough fumigatiOnS.
Suffer for Week.
In compliance with the order the
fumigation work was started this
morning and in n hours officers pre-
diet that the camp will be cleared.
The mills not unlike the "eOotle
mills" of France, according 10 ex-ser-
vice men in the party. are rude
shacks. Two of these are used for
fumigating the motor cars Of the tour
lSNN lut WIZ
shower baths, are for the use of the
travellers. 1t was estimated b. Off
GERS that they could clean ten ears
and their occupants every hour.
The order permitting the travellers
to continue will put a stop 10 thclr
many sufferings and rrivations Of the
last few days. Many of the tourists
are without adequate food. though
the state attempted 10 supply 1t, aud
many travellers slept under the opsn
sky and had only the rough rock for
bedding.
Try 10 Break Through.
In desperation, 100 members Of the
marooned camp attempted 10 break
through the lines last night but all
were repulSed and forced 10 return 10
the camp, fourteen miles from the
state line.
Dr +. l.. Stamm, state and federal
supervisor Of quarantine said. that
when the travellers now ia camp were
fumigated the work would be disccu-
timed and the ban would be put ~
again.
We viii clean up the Joo people
campcl there now but will care foe
no more arrivals Dr. Stamm said.
we cen handle only about 10 cars
