GERMAN PRESS SEES
CAUSE FOR HOPEFULNESS

Berlin, June 23.-(P)-The consen-
sus Of the German Press Tuesday was
that, while President Hoover's mora
torium proposal would alleviate the
crisis, the ultimate salvation of the
world lay in a more radical step than
mere postponement Of inter-govern-
ment war debts.
Democratic newspapers expressed
confidence the Hoover plan was only
preliminary to more far-reaching
ones in the future. "The postpone
ment of payments during the most
precarious of all the tribute years can
only mean the beginning" said the
Boersen Courier. New years of rest
must follow the first-and lead to
final revision"
ingly admitting the benefit of the
suspension, contended it means a per-
iod for Germany to catch her breath
SO she will be in better condition to
bear her burdens later on.
They don't want to kill the goose
that's laying the golden eggs" de-
clared the local Anzeiger.
Der Tag went so far as to say 1t
was time for the ministry to resign.
Hjalmar Schacht. former president
of the Reichsbank and consistent
critic of the Bruening government,
said in the extreme nationalist or
gan. Deutsche zeitung, Chancellor
Bruening now has q chance to change
his policy Of watchful waiting to ac-
tivity."
Lauding the plan, he said: "It's
another testimonial OF the strong
feeling Of responsibility America feels
in public affairs"
The Tageblatt expressed trepi-
dation over Hoover's statement that
reparationS and inter-allied debts
were two different matters but hop
ed the postponement plan would ini-
tiate a thorough change in both.

HICAGO, December 3.-Western
Conference athletic directors
and coaches will foregather in
Chicago tomorrow for their
annual Winter meeting to arrange
schedules and to talk about such things
as charity contests and an ailment de-
scribed as falling of the gate receipts
While the directors and coaches are
holding their various meetings the
Faculty Committee on Athletics will get
together, probably in secret, for their
annual session.
Foot ball schedules for 1882 are
ready and need only to be approved
but the annual indoor and outdoor
track and field championship dates
must be selected and awarded. This,
however, probably will leave plenty of
time for the foot ball coaches to dwell
on the unexpected outcome of the
championship race, and to exchange
notes on the financial situation.

mittee, three members from the Glass

to map campaigns to give minor league

their own show without the majors
stealing the act with their important
trades or sales. AS the meeting neared

deal had been announced-the sale of
