' IUGHES PLANNING NEW HUN TREATY By Hugh W. Rolwrts Washington, I). C., July 28.?In orer that Germany might play a part i adjudicating claims of Americans ased on the sinking by Germany of le Lusitania the Harding adminis ation is nejjotiating a new treaty ith Germany. The fact was divulged today by ecretary of State Hughes. He deared opposition to to the bill of Sentor Underwood providing for the ppointment of an American comlission to adjust these claims on the round- that such a measure would jn counter to a new treaty in course F negotiation. Before the United States could periit Germany to have a word in passig on American claims, it was necesuy that it negotiate a new treaty, he Versailles and the separate "eaty guaranteed to the United tates the right of adjusting these aims and compensating itself out f* ilormnn flin/lc Vw>LI K \T thi) roperty custodian. In those treaties, ermany expressly agreed that the nited States should proceed withjt hindrance. Despite existing treaties and the i?reement of Germany, Mr. Hughes ?ys, that it would he unfuir for the nited States to proceed alone. As matter of fact the negotiation of a L'W treaty will require considerable me and according toSenator Unerwood today there is no eeilainly iat such a treaty would be ratified. The alien property custodian has ernian property to the value of 500,000,000. American claims, bared > the bone, will approximate that mount. If the administration suf>rs Germany to make additional injads, Am viean claims can not be itisfied. nator Underwood is anxius that American claims be settled nd that the United States proceed nder existing treaties as a conquerlg nation rather than one which oubts the authenticity of its victory n the battlefield. 'I introduced my bill," Senator Unerwood said today, "not for political urposes but if the administration, i placate the German vote, defeats iy bilf and proceeds to the negotiaion of a new treaty, politics will ertainly be involved. The German ote may stand by the Republicans ut millions of Americans will stand p and demand the reason why. "Germany, which sank the Lusiania before the United States was ngaged in war, has no right to pass n the justice of American claims." The Republicans, it is evident, rould postpone until after the eleeion the adjudication of the claims nder the guise of negotiating a new reaty which may never he rauneui.
