(By Associated Press.) Paris, May 2.—The proposals con¬ tained in the German note, delivered at the foreign office this afternoon in the German language, are' regard¬ ed in French official circles as for Anglo-Saxon and neutral consump¬ tion only. Terms of the note appears to pre /Vi osterous to the French government. ( it is assumed there was no hope on the part of the Berlin government that they would be ajccepted. The scheme amounts to the re-opening of the whole question of reparations as settled by the treaty of Versailles, high officials stated. It is regarded as doubtful if Pre¬ mier Poincare will consider it neces¬ sary to make a detailed reply, but if a reply is made it will be pointed out that the proposal is unacceptable be¬ cause of the amount of money offer¬ ed, and the conditions under which it is offered. Paris, May 2.—The new German proposition for a reparations settle¬ ment are so far from acceptable to France that a flat rejection of them is regarded by persons close to Pre¬ mier Poincare as inevitable. This re¬ jection, it is stated, will probably be followed by an extension of the oc cupation on the right bank o.f the, Rhine. Berlin, May 2.—Germany, in her reparations proposal submitted today advances a proposition that security as between France and Germany be attained by an agreement to submit any future conflicts to arbitration or other reeoneiliatory processes. With regard to the two proposed loans of five billion marks each, the note proposes that in case these amounts cannot be raised fully by issue of bonds at normal rates be¬ fore the dates fixed, an impartial in¬ terest commission shall decide wheth er, when and how the amount not yet accounted for is to be raised. The same commission would decide in July, whether, and how after July 1, 1928, the interest not provided for in the first instances is subsequently to be raised. As to the make up of this commission, Germany proposes either the syndicate which puts up the first loan of twenty billion gold marks or committee of international business men be chosen according to the suggestion of Secretary Hughes —a committee on which Germany is to he represented with rights equal to these of other nations. As the • third alternative the note proposes a court of arbitration com¬ posed of a representative of the rep¬ aration commission and a representa¬ tive of the German government, to gtether with a chairman from the president of the United. States would bd requested nominate in cases the othej- two members failed to agree as to tlie' nomination. Urges Mutual Understanding The note begins by emphasizing the view thqt the questions upon which depend the reconstruction of the de¬ vastated areas and, the restoration of the sound economic life and peace of Europe can only be solved by mutual Understanding. The occupation of tlie Ruhr, the official declaration states, is diametri¬ cally opposed to such aspirations, and it therefore provoked .the. passive re¬ sistance of the Ruhr population. “The German government,’ 1 the note continues, ‘‘shares the sober minded desire of all people that the daily increasing tension be relaxed j , and ■T the wanton destruction of eco • Vfes<^i.ic values cease.” the difficulty of The note' stresses arriving at a tangible basis for com puling Germany.’s economic and finan cial capacity in her present situation., and it declares every solution must be sufficiently elastic to take this con¬ dition into consideration. It should : lr furtherihore be noted, says the. docu¬ ment, that Germany, owing to iL the - * ■** — — — w- • lack of surplus profits from her own products, will in the near future be unable to raise any lai-ge amounts o/ ; capital from her. .own resources / THE NEWS IS A MEMBEft OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS •i* t + ♦ t t t ♦ + ♦ t ♦ t •!> ♦ * ♦ GENERAL MAKINOFF -f + KILLED IN EXPLOSION ♦ ♦ AMMUNITION FACTORY ♦ ♦ (By Associated Press.) ■+ + London, May 2.—One hundred ♦ A persons were killed in an am A- munition explosion in a factory A of the government at Tulsa, A Russia, according to telegraphic A advices reaching Helflngfors, A Finland, says a Central News A dispatch.

EXALTED KU KLUX AND HOLY ROLLER RIOT FOLLOWED MOB ABOUT NEW JERSEY JAIL SO LARGE TROOPS WERE REQUESTED (By Associated Press.) Bound Rock, N. J., May 2.—The po¬ lice today sought the leaders of the mob which caused one hundred “holy rollers” to barricade themselves in the Pillar of Fire church after a meet¬ ing, and in which many men and wom¬ en were injured. More than six hun¬ dred men rushed up the stairways leading to the second floor where the beleaguered hundred had barricaded themselves. The first floor was a wreck as the result of the battle which began early in the evening when an unidentified speaker exalted the ku klux klan. Three of the non-members were beat¬ en and numerous combatants on both sides were less seriously hurt in the melee in which stones, chairs and sticks were hurled. The women church members fought at the side of their men until the police arrived and the angry mob was driven outside. Two members of the church were arrested- and-arraigned and held to the grand jury on charges of assault and battery. The court .room was crowded and a large mob followed them to the jail. When the mob became larger about the jail the local police asked for troops. Hearing that the jail wouk] not withstand an assault, if one wa made, the prisoners were spirite away to Somerville, automobiles bt ing used for this purpose. SCREWS TIGHT ON RUM RUNNERS OF JERSEY COAST N COAST GUARD BOATS WILl RE CONCENTRATED ALONG NT 1W JERSEY COAST (By Associated Press.) Washington, May 2.—While gov ernment officials continued to puzzle today over application of the Supreme Court decision on ship liquor, Coast Guard headquarters issued an order concentrating- all available Coast Guard boats in the north Atlantic along the New Jersey coast. It was said that henceforth the rum fleet massed off Atlantic Highlands would be under surveilance of two Coast Guard cutters day and night. Conclusion of the winter patrol work makes available a dozen or more boats for cutting off shore contacts of the rum fleet. It is the declared purpose of Coast Guard headquarters to “put the screws down” on custom¬ ers of the rum ships, and the office of Assistant Secretary Clifford, of the Treasury, in charge of the Guard, is convinced the fleet can be driven out from lack of customers. -- that - --'--;- consequently she needs for and eign loads, which, however, can only be obtained when German credit is restored. The note contains recurring sug gestions that American recommenda tions in respect to the adjustment of reparations be adopted. Reference also is made to the Bry T an agreements for the arbitration international, conflicts. This ds in connection with the so-called ties demanded by France. The outstanding bid for American participation in the solution of the j reparations issue is contained in the proposition that the President of the' United States name the third mem-' ber of ^ the financial wiimivtui commission Wiiiinivqiyiu which " -would decide the manner in which the sums lacking to make up the full amount of Germany’s offer after Hie' first loan be raised.
