Hughes NVarns Of Might Come Using Force. Danger In" From WASHINGTON, Dec. 30. Disclosure by Stx-retary Hughes, in his New Haven sixiecb Inst night of the belief of tho Washington government that au in ternational commission of financiers, in cluding Americans, might well be called in to recommend a method of settlement for tho reparations crisis, apparently leaves the next move in tho hands of the Aliied premiers. The American sugge-.tion, Mr. Hughes specified, was offered an au alternutivu Paris meeting nxt Tuesday fail to find a basi fur adjustment of their views "among therjiHelves. " The aocretary strutted the view tlitit sit lenient by tho premiers was to be hoped fur. . ito pointed out- that failim: such an agreement, tho world might be fading the employment of forcible menus to collect reparations from Je.r inaiiy, and outliued tho danger to world jxa.'O the American government foresaw in that cuurso. The plain warning to allied statesmen that the United States eould not look with favor ou attempted forcible col lection was reiterated by Mr. Hughes in hij address, aud the financial commission jilan put forward as an alternative that would "i'oiieu hopefully" the way for I American helpfulness. i As a lirst condition of appointment of lan economic,, commission, however, Mi. Hughes sjs;cihed that tho whole ques tion of Germany's capacity to pay and methods of payment must 1ms "taken out of politics." Ho emphasized that the distinguished financiers ntricned to rec minuend not only a fmanrial idan of payment but thu amount to be paid must be freed of the domination of foreign of fices and tho necessity o obeying-political instructions. Tho problem must Vie squared with economic nets a'on", he said, and relieved of all the (luestious of senlimeiit and clashing political opinion, recriminations and counter charges which bnve blocked roenwrattoa ot Europe up to this lime. . . It was this method alono, the were tary's statements plainly indicated, which in tho view of the Ameriean gov ernment would make possible American erouomic aid to Enfope. Ho discussed both proposals for a general economic eouferoneo and discussion of allied debt cancellation as lmpractu-able proposals. .Secretary Hughes' address and Sena tor Hoiah's withdrawal of his navT Wll amendment reqnestirtg the President U tall an. economic conference combined to clear tho air considerably with regard to Ihd effort of the American government to be helpful in the reparations tangle. It bad been made plain that the, ad ministration saw no present hope of ac couiplinahing good results throu-jh the method proposed by untor Ilorah. The two day seuate. deoate had served, how ever, to make ollicials both here ana t abroad aware of the desire in this couti- Itrv that American help uliouUl.be given toward European recuperation if a way Ito make it available can be louna. .
