. MAY ASK U. S. AID
| ON REPARATIONS
Part in Geneva Conference
i Believed Essential for Set
tlement of Problem.
! By the Associated Press.
i GENEVA, September 17.—The belief
> prevailed today that the United States
j. would undoubtedly be asked to par
[ ticipate in the deliberations pf the com
; mission of experts that will work for a
complete and definite settlement of the
reparations problem. After a series of
conversations Great Britain, France,
Germany, Italy, Belgium and Japan
reached an agreement to name a com
mission. and an accord was reached in
principle for special official negotiations
looking to evacuation of the Rhineland.
In some circles the opinion was held
that discussion of reparations would
lMd to a discussion of war debts in
general.
Disclaimers Are Issued.
Disclaimers were issued, however, that
Europe had any wish to drag the United
States into the reparations discussion.
Nevertheless, the general opinion in
.political circles appeared to be that
nothing sound, complete or final could
be achieved without the collaboration of
| America either through governmental
. representatives or financiers who would
i reflect Washington's views.
t When delegates of 50 nations to the
Assembly of the League of Nations
heard of the accord, the opinion was
voiced that statesmen have begun to
write the last chapter on liquidation
of the consequences of the great war.
Not only representatives of European
governments, but those from lands be
vond the seas as well, saw- in the pre
. liminary agreement a solid basis for ef
fective collaboration between the gov
| emments and peoples for a general so
lution of the problems left by the war
! and particularly of all financial prob
lems arising from fixation of German
reparations on a basis of Germany’s
capacity to pay.
Agreement Called Colossal.
Some Geneva newspapers in describ
ing the agreement called it colossal.
That Japan was invited to sit on the
commission of financial experts which
will tackle the reparations problem was
taken to indicate that Europe’s belief
was that the question was not only
European, but international, in its
1 scope and possible repercussions.
I A German spokesman said today that
when the discussions began there would
i be recorded the necessities and the
hopes of Germany and the allies in
connection with reparations. The Ger
man belief was that Seymour Parker
Gilbert, agent general for reparations,
had already admirably paved the way
for the proposed study.
The belief was generally expressed
also that the negotiations would have
a repercussion on the Berenger accord
tinder which France has been pro
visionally making debt payments to
the United States. Some thought that
It would be difficult, if not impossible,
to avoid discussion of the relation of
German reparations to interallied debts
In -general.
PARTICIPATION VIEWED UNLIKELY
Washington Receives Rather Coldly
Reparations Discussion Plan.
By the Associated Press.
Geneva dispatches intimating that an
attempt might be made by the allied
governments to induce Washington to
participate in the work of the com
mission which will deal with the repara
tions problem were rather coldly re
ceived in official quarters today.
It was stated flatly that the only in
formation on the subject before the
State Department was that conained in
news dispatches. Beyond that, comment
was refused.
U. S. Viewpoint W’ell Known.
The policy of this Government, which
regards the reparations and war debt
questions as wholly separate, has been
reiterated so often that the further
suggestion in the Geneva dispatches
that the reparations conversations w’ould
lead to a general discussion of war
debts Is held not to reflect the Amer
ican viewpoint.
The only American participation in
the reparations discussion at any pre
vious time was in connection with the
allotment of 2*4 per cent of
the general paymens made by
Germanw under the Dawes plan to sat
isfy the costs of occupation covering
the periods during which there was
an American Army on the Rhine. The
United States Government was rep
resented at the Dawes plan and sub

The fact that a revolver was found rear
the dead woman led police to conclude
that she had committed suicide, al
though a motive for such an act was
not forthcoming.
The most strongly urged theory, ac- |
cording to police, is that of an unsuc- j
| cesrful quest for love. According to ;
fairly well founded rumors, the woman j
visited the home of a prominent Reno j
! man shortly before her death The
I man whose home she visited could not !
be located and his wife declined to tell
i what transpired during the visit.
