By S. D. WETER ISTAFF CORRESPONDENT I. I. SEJCYICC DAUM, iiarch SO. The Oerman political horizon was darkened today by the clouds of a new crisis. Its origin lies in the new Indemnity demands of tbe inter-allled reparations commlsiloa. Tbe Nationalists In the Relchntag already have moved a vote of censure against Chalcellor'Wlrth tecauee of the policy he haa adopted towards the allies indemnity demands. The German Peoples party, comprising the big Industrial magnates of the country. Is "on the fence." From Indication today. It does not wish to vote confidence In Chancellor Vlrth. nor does It want to Join in a vote of censure. The Independent Socialists, just as they did last May. probably will turn the balance. Supporters ox tbe Chancellor expect tbe Socialists to support him. Chancellor TTIrth Is expected to take the 'niative himself In demanding a vote of confidence from the Reichstag. The chancellor may head the delegation to the International economic conference at ynoa, but he will not go without a confidence vote showing that he has the support of the whole country behind him.

Scores of Leading: Cities in the United States Will Have Representatives in Remarkable Delegation to Sail This Summer.
A GOOD WILL DELEGATION to France, made up of representatives of scores of American cities, will sail from New York this summer. This announcement has just been made by the American Committee for Devastated France through the chairman of Its executive committee, Miss Anne Morgan. It is predicted that the Good Will Delegation will assume international importance. Its members will be officially received by the French Government in Paris and later will make a tour.of the battlefields. The delegates will see the devastated region, where the plucky French peasants are striving to rebuild their shattered farms and homes, and will observe the splendid work being accomplished by the American Committee.

The purpose of the delegation, 88 its name implies, is to create a better understanding between the peoples of the United States and France. It is expected that at
July or early August. So that the delegation may be truly representative its members will be chosen through newspaper contests in the various cities. , By" a special ar-
least SCO women, representing 300 rar.gement all expenses of the
American cities will tail in late delegates will I be paid.
Incidentally the contests will help to raise the fund which the committee declares is needed to round out its work in the devastated regions. Miss Morgan, who has just returned from France, declared in an interview that it is necessary for America to get the true French viewpoint if the splendid friendship existing between the two countries for so many years is to grow. "By means of this delegation," said Miss Morgan, "we feel that Americans in all parts of the country will have an opportunity to learn for themselves the truth about France. At present they are the victims of so much misinformation that it is amazing to
one who has recently returned j to French residents in the neigh-
from France. I am at a loss to understand how such a total misapprehension of conditions could have arisen here. "People ask us why we need to go ony with our work over there. Again, this question is due to misunderstanding. Most Americans seem not to be aware that as yet Germany has not paid one centime to France.' Germany insists that she cannot pay." "Two years ago," added Miss Morgan, "the American Committee started to raise a fund to be devoted to work in the devastated region. Now the Committee wishes to see its work through and turn over its various enterprises
borhoods where the work has been
conducted. "Our work has gone through various phases, according to the need of the time. At first it was the distribution of the necessities of life to the war sufferers. Since then we have established health work in the villages, physical training in some of the schools, libraries, agricultural and building centers. We have maintained foyers which are much like community centers, and scores where merchandise was sold at wholesale prices." Miss Morgan declared that there is still much work to be done and is anxious that ss many Americans
as possible study the situation at first hand. The contests to select the delegates to represent the various cities will be conducted by a newspaper in each city. Candidates will be nominated and the one receiving the greatest number of votes from the people of the city will be designated as the city's representative in the delegation. The sum of ten cents will be contributed to the American Committee for each vote cast and this money will be used in rounding out the work in the devastated region. The tour will last about four weeks and will include a visit to Paris, a trip through Normandy and a visit to the battlefields in the Department of the Aisne. Arrangements' already have been made for transportation, hotels and competent guides.
"If this delegation is as successful as I think it will be," said Mis.i Morgan, "another delegation will be sent to France later in the year, "Please keep in mind that we don't want these women to go to France simply for a good time. We want them to go over with the serious thought in mind of understanding the French people and fully appreciating the great prob, lems they are facing. We want 1 them to return to their homes S everywhere in the United States' and report what they have witnessed and what they hiv learned." The first contests have been started in New England and inquiries have been received at the headquarters of the American Committee, 16 East 39th Street, New York, from scores of cities throughout the country, . , '
