With the success or failure of the American move looking toward a solution of the old worlds economic crisis virtually hanging on. the attitude of France, this government is Understood to be preparing to ask Premier Poincare for a definite statement as to the utmost concessions he is willing to make on reparations and kindred questions in order to re1 lieve the situation. ; . Tills government realizes the Pom-car- e government faces a difficult political situation because of the strong demand in Frnace for the use of force in the hope of compelling Germany to pay the huge reparation figure which has been imposed upon her, and the inquiry to the French government will be propounded in the most friendly manner. Tills v government has received the fjermatii proposal calling for a commission1 of Sxperts, preferably Americans, t6 revise the reparations down to the hghest possible figure that Germany can pay. rhls proposal was revealed exclusively by the press and caused hnq&ual interest In official circles. - If Is' beleved that any plan the United States agrees upon will be acceptable in the main to Great Britain, thus making It necessary to harmonize as nmch as possible .the .wide . lWeen!1 fikance' many, jf a gofutibn of the problem to be reached. The plan of this government is to get the views of all the powers and then outline a common ground upon which negotiations could be opened with the United States acting as a sort of mediator. State department officials denied that the informal discussions between this government and the allies had reached the stage where a definite American proposal had been framed, and said here was no truth in reports from London that the United States at the request by German Chancellor Cuno had proposed an American commission of business men to revise the reparations figure.

Richards, missing victims of the Morehouse 'mob of last August, were found near the Eastland ferry on Lake La Fourche, which separates Morehouse and Richland parishes, according to the reports. The limbs of the dead men were tied with wire. They came to the surface as the result of a big charge of dynamite exploded by unidentified persons. The 'bodies were nude except for belts and a portion of the trousers. One man's head was gone. It is thought that those who used the explosive left without knowning the bodies had come to the surface. A ferryboat had broken from its moorings and drifted a considerable distance downstream. The bank near where the boat was accustomed to landing was badly torn up. Many dead fish were on the surface of the water. The nearest point where soldiers were reported stationed is said to be several miles from the place of the dynamiting. Owing to the condition of the bodies, it is beleved It will be difficult to remove them and that identifeation will be difficult, unless there are marks on the belts. Several shots were fired at them and the men disappeared. Cooperlake is surrounded by dense swamps in an inaccessible part of Merehouse parish, and it has been named as the spot where the bodies of the two missing men, Major Watt Daniels and Thomas Fletcher Richards, might possibly have been thrown by their kidnappers, according to reports made by private deteetives.
