AMERICAN PORK
 BARRED BY FRANCE
THE ELIMINATION OF MICRO SCOPlC EXAM NATION FROM THE
 NEW AMERICAN REGULATIONS
 CAUSES ADOPTION OF MEASURE

Paris, November 20.--The elimination of the microscopic examination of pork from the new American meat inspection regula- lions has resulted in preliminary decis- ion by the French customs authorities barring American ham, bacom, canned pork, etc. After long diplomatic nesotId- tions several years ago, France agreed to admit American pork if 1t had been microscoplcally examined and found sound.
 When, therefore, the new regulations in- stituted after the packing disclosures, and under which the first shipments are now on their way to French ports were sub mitted to the authorities here, they ruled that they did not comply with the old agreement and prompt measures were ln- stituted to secure their reversal, and, II possible, avoid prolonged unpleasant dp- lomatie negotiations.
 Ambassador Mccormick, under instruc- tions from Washington, made energetic representations to foreign officers point ing out that while the microscopic exami- nation had been eliminated the new meat inspection was more rigorous and more ef- ficient Foreign Minister Pichon prom sed to give the matter immediate atten- tion but the question must naturally first be decided by the French and Agricul tural department.
 Fortunately, a slight delay will not cause great material loss, as the pork lm- portations to France are comparatively small, the trade never having recovered from the blow it received when American pork was originally excluded from France

RYAN'S RESIGNATION
 LINE WITH SCHIFF'S
Financier Was Director In 25 Railroad Companies-Says His Respons-
 biIities Were Too Heavy.

New York, November 20-Thomas F. Ryans announcement yesterday that he had resigned as a director from all the railroad and industrial corporations with which he has been associated, and that he hereafter would retain his official connec- tion with only some of the financial and fiduciary institutions with which he is identified while a surprise to financial men was generally considered by them in line with the action of Jacob Schiff of Kuhn, Loeb & Co. who took similar action recently.
 MT. Ryan, like Mir. Schff, stated that his reasons for resignation were that his accommodating interests and responsiblll- ties rendered it impossible for him to properly discharge his obligations to the stockholders concerned.
 Mr. Ryan was a director in about tWen- ty-fVe railroad and industrial concerns. His resignation as director does not mean that he will withdraw his financial inter- est in the companies It is stated that MT. Ryan's sons Allan A. and John, will probably take their fathers place in number of the companies.
