PROTEST TO UNITED STATES
France and Great Britain object to
Carranza's Seizures.

Washington, Oct. o. Strong pro
test has been made to the state de.
partment by the British and French
embassies against the action of the
Carranza government in Mexico in
seiZing the assets of British and
French banking institutions in the
Mexican capital.
These banks are closed as the result
of the Carranza DEGREES. and il is de.
clared that the interests of British and
French stockholders have been seri-
ously affected Because the French
financial interests in the banks are
much larger than the British, France
has taken the lead in the protests. but
the British embassy has notified the
state department that 1t is in full sym
pathy with them.
So far, the state department has
given no indication of what it will do
but ii is believed that the protests will
be transmitted first to the American
members of the joint commission, now
in session at Atlantic City, to be
drawn to the attention of their Mexi
can colleagues.
Mr.. Hohler, the British charge OF
the legation in Mexico City, is in
