He suggested Walsh of Montana,

U. S. STATE DEPT.
THREATENS TARIFF
WAR ON FRANCE
Charges Discrimination
Involving Germans

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20. = The
French government was sharply in
formed today that if it wants a tariff
war with the United States it can
have it.
This was done in the state depart
ment's note, handed to the French
foreign office, which brings to eli
max the protest against rates on i'm
ports which the French have granted
the Germans alleged to be discrimi-
natory against American goods.
The French were told that while
this government can interpose no OBJ
lection to import duties imposed by
that country, it will insist upon being
treated on exactly the same basis as
other nations.
AS an alternative the French were
reminded that the American tariff
law makes it necessary to Impose a
retaliatory duty on French goods OF
so per cent and if necessary declare
complete embargo if the discrimi-
natory policy is carried into effect
by France. The American note quot
ed freely form the Fordney-McCum-
Der tariff law to show that there is
no other course.
Rates Discriminating.
The American protest also empha-
sized to France that it is the only
nation which now has rates discrimi-
mating against American commerce
1t was pointed out that any nation
has the right to fix it's own rates as
matter of internal policy, but that
every other nation in the world now
feels that these rates must not be
discriminatory one against the other
1t was intimated that while the
United States might raise an embar-
go against luxuries which the French
send here and which constitute the
bulk of their exports to this country
These are gowns, perfumes, toilet
articles, de-alcoholized liquors and
medicinal wines. 1t was pointed Out
that these constitute one-tenth of the
French exports while American ex.
ports 70 France are only about one
one-hundredth of the total.
Officials of the state department
said for publication that it has beer
suggested that France might senc
commission here to arbitrate the
question. 1t is their belief, however
that there is nothing to arbitrate
They point out that such discussion
could only prolong the existing dis.
elimination against American pro.
ducts going into France.
They emphasize in this, as was
stated in the note, that France must
either give the United States the
same preferential duties as are given
to Germany, or take the consen-
quences Of retaliatory duties or the
embargo

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20. Two
more American marines have just
been killed in the war which the U,

against remnants of the Liberal gov
eminent of Nicaragua which has
refused to accept it's rule, as laid
down by Col. Stimson.
At the same time over 20 Nicara-

the skirmish with the marines and
about twenty-five native constabu-
larry.
The fighting occurred at Telpan-
eca and is reported to have lasted
four hours. So far as the casualties
go, the fight appears to have been
the most serious since the Ocatal
battle, in which several hundred Mic

PARIS GENDARME S
CLUB WORKERS AT
PROTEST MEETING
Hundreds Hurt in Police
Outrages in France

PARIS, Sept. 20. - Hundreds of
French workers were injured and
trampled when Paris mounted and
foot police attempted to break up the
huge mass meeting at Clichy where
thousands of outraged workingmen
were demanding the immediate with
drawal or expulsion of the American
Legion from France.
Police Beat Workers.
The police who were massed in
platoons, with supporting reserves on
horseback and motorcycles, watched
the meeting without interfering UNI
til the crowds began to assume such
vast proportions that the order was
given to dispense them. The police
charged and the workers in resisting
were crushed back and beaten with
brutal ferocity by the sticks and
swords of the French cossacks. Blood
flowed from broken heads and bleed
ing noses, while the steady drumming
thud of the police weapons on the
workers bodies could be heard above
the shouts and the gendarme's yells.
The resistance of the workers and
the inability of the police to break
up the Clichy protest meeting in spite
of their deliberately brutal tactics in
furiated the gendarmes to such a
degree that the square in which the
meeting had been held soon resem-
bled a battle ground rather than a
suburban park. AS result of the
police outrage four of the leading
workers were jailed.
Workers Parade Orderly.
The attack by the police came after
quiet and orderly parade in which
thousands of the workers with mourn
ing bands around their arms proceed
ed thru the streets of Clichy on their
