The German offer was said to be vague and to throw ambiguities into the original proposal.
Berlin, April 28—Foreign Minister Simonds today was preparing a clarification of his repatriation offer.
The German offer of fifty bili-
g gold marks is "indicously below the
Paris total," according to this data.
It is worth noting that there are ma-
rical, the allies will not discuss it.
The French refusal was accepted and caused no surprise. Great Britain's request for a clear message ensured a belief that some of the allies want to negotiate a settlement. The British action, it was believed staved off acceptance of Simond's resignation.
The most severe criticism of Simonds was that by offering to accept an American decision on separation he has injured the national dignity.
