Mr.. Brooks is member of the

represented at the fair Mr..
Brooks said. "Imperial county's ex-
hibit attracted considerable atten-

were on display, the exhib;, being
confined to relief man of the
county and advertising literature.
Notwithstanding the fact that other
counties had more attractive look
irg ovhihits, those who attended
the fair showed great interest in our
booth and it was necessary to send
down for more literature.
Having had an excellent oppor-

PARIS, Sept. Is. - General

commander Of the American
Legion, was officially received
by the French nation today for
the first time since he arrived
on these shores in 1917 as the
leader of 100000 American
troops.
Pershing arrived here today
from Cherbourgh, where he had
discmbarked with other Legion
naires from the SIS Leviathan.
Five hundred poilus with fix
ed bayonets, swarms of police
and a mounted patrol were in
the vicinity of the Care DIES In
valides lest communists or dis
orderly elements of the Paris
ian population attempt to spoil
the occasion.
The closest the crowd of
thousands of welcomers was
permitted to approach Pershing
was % feet.
The welcome today, rs
General Pershing himself re-
marked, was in strange CON
trast to that dav 10 years ago
when he arrived to assist in
the prosecution of the greatest
war in recorded history.
Marshal Petain, generalissi-
mo Of the French army, greeted
Pershine in the name of
France.

A wreath was placed on the

The American Legion color

Many French families were
present to welcome Pershing

GOVERNMENT TO

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16-Means
If retaliating against French dis
.riminatorv tariff rates on Ameri-
AN goods were being studied by
administration officials today.
Retaliation by an executive order
increasing American tariff rates
N French goods, as demanded by
"crtain American business interests
s considered probable unless ii dip
lomatic solution is found for the
rlcsent deadlock.
The state department has receiv-
ed the French note rejecting the
American proposal for most fav-
orcd nation commercial treaty and
making in effect a counter proposal
for n reciprocity treaty.
The state department reply to
the French tariff note will prob
ably be ready by Monday, officials
said today. The American note will
point out that the American execu
tive has no authority under the law
t" negotiate a reciprocity CONNER
cial treaty, giving France preferen-
tial treatment. The statement
pointed out that the French rates
are clearly discriminatory.
French duties on American goods,
effective Sept. 6, are in some cases
100 percent higher than on the
same commodities under the new
Fianco-German agreement, accord
ing to the commerce department.
Officials say the most serious as
pert Of the situation is France s
rfusal to grant this country an
Immediate most favored nation tenn
Porary agreement, pending ncgotia-
tons to settle the dispute over the
nature of a permanent treaty.
Charges were made in congress
sional circles that Frances dis
criminatory tariff move is an eff
fort to force" American cancellation
of the French war debt.
Senator Borah, chairman of the
senate foreign relations committee,
said there could be no debt cancel
lation without cancellation of rep.
aration charges against Germany. :,
