FRENCHMEN ARE
VERY INDIGNANT
Displeased at the Attitude Taken
by Venezuela.
VIEW OF THE LATTER
South American Republic Contends
Action Taken Against NJ. Taigny
Was Personal, but He Did
as Directed.

Paris, Sept. 23-The offensive atti-
tude of Venezuela to NJ. Taigny. French
charge d'affaires at Caracas, has
aroused indignation in official quarters
here. Although the ministry has not
yet taken definite action. it is said in
the highest qu-rters that Premier Rou-
vier undoubtedly will demand that
Venezuela disavow her offensive action
and adopt a course conformable with
the usual courtesies In diplomatic in
tercourse.
The Venezuelan authorities are now
seeking to show their action was d.
rected against NJ. Taigny personally
and not against the French govern
ment, but officials here do not accept
the distinction between NJ. Taigny in a
personal and Official capacity. He has
high standing at the foreign office,
where he recently served, and there is
no intention here to permit Venezuela
to make scapegoat Of him.
An official directly with handling
Venezuelan questions explained the
general status of the controversy as
follows: Venezuela supports the clos
ing of the French Cable company's in
land stations on the ground of the de-
cision of the Venezuelan courts.
France does not question the general
right OF the courts. but maintains that
2 the decision of the courts contained
nothing authorizing the executive
branch to seize and shut up cable sta
tons. Moreover. only a day before
shutting up the inland stations vene-
zuela gave assurances that General
Velutini, Venezuelan minister at Paris.
would take steps to satisfactorily ad-
just the question. Therefore. NJ. Taig-
ny protested on the ground that the
courts decision did not justify closing
of stations.
This protest is not NJ. Taigny's per-
sonally, but he followed specific in
structions from the foreign office.
Therefore. It is impossible to raise a
personal issue.
A separate verbal protest was made
against the expulsion of Manager
Brun of the French Cable company on
the ground that the fight to expel for
eigners does not apply to NJ. Brun. who
is permanently domiciled in Caracas.
It is expected that the demand will be
made that. Venezuela disavows the ac-
ton taken subsequent to the course of
France. Latter will depend upon Ven
ezuela's reply.
Inquiry makes 1t practically certain
