Germans Are Hopeful

By United Press
BERLIN, June "a slackening
in Germany's PREPARATIONS revision
program was indicated todey as one
result of the announcement that
Harry l.. Stimson, United States
secretary of state, will visit Europe
this summer.
High hope was expressed in gov
eminent quarters that Stimson will
advocate cancellation of part of the
allied debts and reparations as a
means of scrapping part of Europe's
ornaments.
A spokesman for the government
said German ofhciaSl hope Stimson
will suggest reductions of between
81 100000 to $2000,00O,000 in
Europe's annual military OUTLAWS,
including rigid limitations in the
percentage Of populations under
arms and restrictions on war ma
terials.
Stimsons intention to reach Ber-
lin on July 81 will check, it is be-
heved, inclination of some German
officials to announce suspension Of
reparations payments early in the
summer.

OF the house requiring that a bill

Sanders said.
This representative, who will at

has called for $50 signatures. will
have support of Democrats if Re-
puollcans succeed in organizing the

On the other hand, If Republicans
are in the minority they will try to

Hoover, StimSon Confer
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, June 8.-Week-
end conversations at Chequers be-
tween heads of the British and
German governments indicate a dis
position to reopen the reparations
and war debts questions in way
that will present a serious problem
for the United States.
President Herbert Hoover during
his weekend at Rapidan camp was
understood to have discussed the
situation with Hugh Gibson, am
bassador to Belgium, and the gov
ernment's foremost authority on
European postwar relations.
Soon after Mr.. Hoover returned to
the White House today Secretary of
State Henry L. Stimson called. He
brought with him several bundles
of documents, and it was assumed
that the debt situation was the sub
ject of the conference.
Though this government has been
rigid in opposing cancellation or
downward revision of the allied war
debts, the fall in the general world
price level and possible inability of
Germany to continue reparations
payments, out of which allied debt
payments to the United States are
financed, raised considerations which
officials here privately recognize may
have to be faced.
For this reason, the visits to
Europe by Stimson and Treasury
Secretary Andrew w. Mellon, an
nounced as combination business
and pleasure excursions, take on the
importance of major missions.
Hoover has set his heart upon
making the proposed world disarma-
ment conference at Geneva early
next year a success and his intense
hopes in this respect have led to
speculation as to whether some
method may not be found by which
a readjustment of Europe's financial
obligations can be made, contingent
upon accepting rigid disarmament
proposals.

LONDON, June accessibility of a
Joint representation to the United
States concerning the desirability
Of reducing the financial burdens
created by the World war was seen
today as one result of the Anglo
German conversations at Chequers
over the weekend.
An agreement which would lead
indirectly toward collaboration of
world powers in an effort at war
debt reductions was reached at
Chequers, the United Press was in
formed reliably.
1t was expected that the British
government would communicate the
results Of the conversations to Rome,
after which the desirability of MAX
ing a joint representation to Wash
tngton would be considered.
While no attempt was made at
Chequers to reach an agreement on
Germany's reparations payments, it
is expected that Great Britain will
make some move to gain co-opera-
ton among creditor and debtor ma
tons Ito overcome the present eco
nomic depression"
High Importance was attached to
the presence Of Chequers Of Mon
tague Norman, head of the Bank of
England, as well as Sir Frederick
Leith-Ross, treasury controller. The
kings secretary, Sir Give Wigram,
also was present.
King George received Chancellor
Heinrich Bruening and DR.. julius
Curtius in audience at Buckingham
palace today. 1t was the first time
since the World war that members
of German cabinet had entered
the palace.

FIGHT NAME COPYING

Mount Vernon (Wash.) Claims Ex-
elusive Right to It's Monicker.
By United Press
MOUNT VERNON, Wash, June 6.
-Contending that Mount Vernon,
Wash, is the only town in the ma
ton rightfully entitled to that name,
business leaders here have started
agitation in the hope Of causing
twenty other cities and towns in the
United States bearing the name of
Mount Vernon to change their
names.
Mount Vernon, Wash, was In
corporated in 1890. Local civic
leaders contended that since the
town is located in the state of
Washington, and that the names
Mount Vernon and Washington
usually are associated together, this
town should have excluded rights
on its name.
