ALLIES' REPLY WILL <3 I BE AN ULTIMATUM v Paris, June 6.?There are still many loose ends to the determina- * tions which must be made before the j1 reply of the Allies to the German a counter proposals can be submitted v to Count von Brockdorff-Rantzau F head of the German plenipotentiar- e ies, and even the question of prin- c ciple, regarding changes in the treaty 1 has not been definitely settled. Nev- 1 ertheless, the members of the com- T mission of experts profess confidence * that they wrll be able to complete * their report to the councils of four * by Monday or Tuesday and the members of the council themselves seem * sure that they will be able to present the Allied reply on Thursday orj UViflnv , An Ultimatum. The reply will be submitted as an r ultimatum with a short time limit, v probably, about four days, in which c Germany will either have to take orju leave the conditions as offered them. J t The most important modification S under consideration, namely the ques-j p tion of reparations, probably will not d involve any material changes in the e treaty as originally presented. The c concessions will, instead, be present- ti ed in the form of a supplementary c agreement, defining the procedure o for the reparations commission and p prescribing certain instructions forjt: the body, which, according to the ii "original draft of the treaty, was giv- a en a most comprehensive power of ac- fi tion, subject only to the instruction ^ of the powers represented on the h commission.

Skot towe Wannamaker, president of the - Association, "A standard warehouse i system to l^e controlled by the pro ducers throughout the entire cotton - belt is one of the promary objects of , the Association.

At the New Orleans meeting plans will be perfected for the checking cf crop reports. Arrangements are being m?de to hava representatives in every cotV>n consuming country in the world to secure direct information as ro the need for cotj ton.
