FORMATION OF NEW CABINET
UNDER CIRCUMSTANCES AL
M08T IMPOSSIBLE.
By United Frcss
BERLIN, May 7 Strong political
elements In Germany have served
notice that they will not accept the
allied reparations ultimatum. Tho
leaders of the democrats and Volks
parties hr.ve declared that they
would oppose any attempt to abide
by the new terms.
This attitude has apparently been
communicated to other t political or
ganizations; adding to the difficulty
of forming a cabinet to replace the
Fehrnbach ministry.
Centrists as well as the majority
of independent socialists, aro adopt
ing tho view that they do not want
to become responsible for cabinet
members who for years to come
would be blamed 'for signing tho
reparations ultimatum.
Government officials hope that
tho political leaders' attltudq may bo
altered later, os that by May 12,
when the ultimatum expires, there
will be a sufficient change of sen
timent to permit slgnaturo of terms,.
In the event the' new cabinet is'
unorganized at that date, it will
fall upon Chancellor Fehrenback and
his associates, despite their resig
nations, to act for Germany in nc-,,
cepting tne ultimatum. They are re
sponsible for all governmental ac- ,
tlons until their successors r.ro In
office.
LONDON, May 7. "I hope Germany
will be wlso and accept tho moderate
reparations terms offered here "
Lloyd George declared today in a
speech before a unionist mass meet
ing. "If- Germany disarms, In accord
ance with the treaty, she will bo able
to ask the allies to compel Poland
to- observe the treaty In tho same
way."

Mrs. Emllio Molinaro were living in
Seattle, having come to this country
to" make their fortune. They had loft
their four children in Itnly with a
grandmother, intending to send fur
them as soon as they had made, suf
ficient money to pay their passage.
Enough money finally .saved, an ef
fort was made to get the children
from the old country. The war at this
time bad fair to wreck the world.
The Italian government would not
permit the children to leave, the se.aa
were rpglons of death.
Seven more children were born to
the Mollnaros, in Seattle, a pair of.
twins and triplets.
The family then movod to The
Dalles- and located on tho J. H. Skol

aro became desperately anxious as the
months and years went by, to bo re
