Aug. 2s-communist Leader Marcel caehin. interpelating Pre- mier Ierriot al today's session or the chamber Of deputies on the London separations accord declared that "Dawes represents American impe- rialism in most direct, personal and concrete fashion" NJ. Herriot mere- ly shrugged his massive shoulders, readJusted his horn-rimmed glasses and continued making notes
 Resuming. Deputy Caehin said that tho new American policy Is not very disinterested. Ii has strictly an economic basis. Tho Americans hope to Ind an onfeohIed European market where they can impose their eondi- tons, They must have healthy mar kets to which they can export. hence the Dawes plan.
