STIMSON TO AID MELLON
Secretary Optimistic Of Ultimate Result
As He Sails for Europe.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, June 27.-Secretary of
State Henry L. Stimson sailed today on
a vacation trip during which he Is ex-
pected to help Secretary of the Treasury
Andrew w. Mellon convince European
nations of the world value Of adhering
to President Hoovers suggestion for a
one-year moratorium on war debts and
Teparations.
He was optimistic concerning the
ultimate results from the President s
suggestion but was chary of making any
definite predictions.
When he first went on the liner Conte
Grande, an hour and half before SAIL
ing time. he was quoted by a reporter
for a financial newspaper and news
service who talked with him for several
minutes, as saying that the French
Chamber of Deputies vote of confidence
last night was a clear indication that a
satisfactory agreement would be reached
between France and the United States.
Questioned concerning this later by
other reporters however, he said that 1t
would be impossible for him at the
moment to make any comment on the
action of the French Chamber, but re-
iterated his general feeling Of optimism
Secretary Stimson is technically on a
vacation trip and intends to do some
grouse shooting while abroad, but it
was generally expected that most of his
time would be devoted to conferences
concerning the Hoover moratorium
plan with the statesmen Of several Eu-
ropean countries. While abroad he
will visit Rome. Paris, Berlin and
London.

seller in New York, or Kansas City, or
Denver, and they are for the MIST part
taking their medicine like men. When
idle hands and idle minds, however,
are agitated by political radicals, who
promise short cut to prosperity, the
unemployed become acutely aware Of
their pains and breed riots
The great majority of the German
people, to sum up, are anxious and
willing to take advantage of the Hoo
yer proposal, provided, of course, that
1t goes through at all. Belief that the
plan promises concrete temporary relief
in Germany's crisis is still widely en-
tertained. Any illusions that may have
been cherished that a moratorium
pointed the way to an immediate flight
to easy street are rapidly becoming
dispelled. A years suspension OF the
annual $500 ,000. 900 payment is seen as
a prop for the Reich's internal and ex-
ternal financial framework, but nobody
now Is looking for the passing out of
any bonuses. Just to be reasonably
sure Of the ground they are standing
on is a relief to a people Who have
grown a little weary Of economic and
political earthquakes In the last six
months.

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa,
June 27.-Gen. Jan Christian SHUTS,
who probably was President Wilson's
closest collaboration at the Versailles
Peace Conference, opposes South AZ
rican acceptance Of Great Britain's Of
fer to extend President Hoover's pro-
posed suspension to dominion war
debts.
1.-THE union government should thank
Great Britain heartily, but it must
say. We are going to pay our debts, :"
he said.
Gen. SHUTS considered the Hoover
proposal one of the greatest things
thai had happened in recent years and
hopeo that this hand of friendship
would a grasped with alacrity. South
Africa, however, wanted no suspension
and would put the honor Of South
Africa first.
Gen. SHUTS said that he had no
reason to think that the union gov
eminent would make use Of the offer.
The people Of this country knew OF
the financial position and heavy tax
alton in the United Kingdom, and
would compare the position Of the
taxpayers here with that Of British
taxpayers. After years Of SURPRISES it
would be a climb-down to accept the
British offer, he continued.
