French Ambassador Jusser
and Officially Informed That
New German Reparation
Proposal Is Absolutely Un
acceptable Simons De
clares U. S. Atty. Adviser.
PARIS, April 27. (By tho Asso
ciated Press.) Jean Jules Jusser
and, French ambassador to the
United Stutes has been Informed by
the French government that the
German reparations proposals, as
transmitted to tho Washington gov
ernment, are absolutely unacceptable.
The French point of view Is that
these nrooosals. Instead of making
ahy advance toward a satisfactory
settlement of the reparations riues
tion, arc rather a step backward.
LONDON, April 27. (By 'tho As
sociated Press.) The British gov
ernment today requested Its repre
sentatives In Berlin to Inquire In
formally regarding the new German
Preparations offer for the purpose of
clearing up the ambiguity concern-
, lug the term of years In which the
payment swould be mnde under the
offer.
Tho government also desires to
learn what rate of discount was pro
posed. ' KimniiH Strengthen)! Position
I BERLIN, April 27. ( By-the As
I soclated Press.) Tho German cab
I lnct faced today a vote by the reich
Btag on the government policy In Its
-preparations moves, regarding; its ap
. npnl tn President iHardlncr for media
tion and the new reparation propos
als, just submitted to Washington.
. Approval ofthis policy was forecast
in political quarters as the approv
ing resolution was to be presented
by the Germon peoples' party, the
democrats and clericals, and was re
ported also as llkelv to have the sun-
? port of the majority socialists.
I It seems generally considered that
I Walter Simons, the foreign minister,
materially strengthened his position
;in'the relchstag as a result of his
speech of yesterday.
t During the course of his address
Mr. Simons informed the relchstag
.that he had sought the counsel of an
"American attorney in Berlin before
drafting the appeal to President
Harding. . This statement caused' a
stir.
i (Special dispatches from Berlin re
cently have reported the presence
there of several Americans said to
have been in consultation with Dr.
Blmons, among these being LaFayette
II. DeFricse, of New York; Dr. Rich
ard Moldenke, a mining engineer and
metallurgist of Watchung, N. .1., and
Ludorf Hoefler of San Francisco.)
ft. Foreign Minister SimonB said Jie
and his colleagues were fully Inform
ed of the gravity of . tho situation
which probably would decide the
destiny of Germany. Defending his
appeal to Washington, Dr.' Simons
said:
"A state which is still at war with
another state naturally cannot act as
a mediator, but Its leader can do so
and ho is a man who is ardently
championing the idea of arbitration
and who is being advised by a dis
tinguished jurist. But we are not
,only addressing ourselves to these
men personally but also appealing to
the principle of justice."

ments of apples from the four
Pacific Northwestern states last
season amounted to 28,000 cars,
according to a bulletin made pub-
lie today by the local office of the
federal bureau of markets. This
is about 9000 cars less than the
rcconLcrop of 1919, It is stated.
Continuation of good weather
conditions will give the Wenat-
chee district a record croji next
season of about 16,000 cars, it is
estimated.
Car lot shipments from north-
west districts from July 1, 1920
to March 1, 1921, are given as fol-
lows:

COAST R. R. RATES
ARE SUSTAINED
WASHINGTON'. April
-Freight
rutos from points of origin vit of the
Rocky mountains tci the inter-mountain
territory were found by tire inter
state commerce commission to bo not
unreasonable, unduly prejudicial or
otherwise unlawful. Complaints by
shippers and others were dismissed.
The complaint was mndo against
the maintenance of approximately the
same rates between east tin noints and
inter-mountain territory as . between I
the cast and the Pacific coast, the
complainants seeking to have rates
to the mountain points graded accord
ing to distance with the rates -to the
coast as a workfiig'basis.
Ho fore the war, rates to tho coast
wero lower than those to intrmoun
taln tenito'ry because of water compe
tition growing out of the construction
of the Panama canal. "War condi
tions practically eliminated this com
petition and tho commission in 1918
increased some coast rates .and lower
ed some intermediate rates. which
brought about practically a level set
of rates to the two territories.
Shippers organizations from practi
cally every district in the country
were parties to the rate case, somo fa
voring and others opposing the ap
plication for change. The Atlantic
and Pacific coasts generally oppose
any change tht would affect rates to
the Pacific coast. State commission
parties to the hearing included those
of Utah, Idaho, Nevada, Montana, In
diana and Virginia.
"The rate situation is having a ten
dency," the commission said, "to com
pel the eastern industries to erect
manufacturing plants , and branch
houses In the coast states. While this
trend is- naturally objectionable to
established eastern manufacturers,
the building up of the west as a man
ufacturing .and primary distributing
territory,. is not undesirable from the
standpoint of public interest.

Williams, president of tho American
Newspaper Publishers' assocltulon,
ill his address opening the .14th con
vention of that body, today told pub
lishers newspaper rates should not he

He urged upon tho newspaper pub
Ushers the need of co-operating with
government forces in restoring world
peaco and .bringing business comllT
Hons back to normalcy and cape
daily In repealing unnecessary war
time legislation nnd obnoxious fea
tures of federal taxation laws.
He pointed out that newspnpers
must meet the problems in material
and labor since the average con
tract of news print for tho first six
months of this year was higher than
the avorage contract price for nil
last year and luhor is at the highest
point known.
"While tho outlook In tho newB
print market may bo regardod as im
proving from the publisher's view
point," he Bald, "It has been pointed
out that the market may become de
moralized to such an extent that
later tn tho year some publishers may
be tempted to make reductions in
subscriptions of advertising rates and
throw down the bars to ul) the old
time wasteful practices and mad bus
iness methods."
His suggestions for extending the
usefulness ot the association includ
