.DURAND CR|T|C|zES
 AMERICAN TARIFF
Wants Federation Of European
 States

Paris, July IS LP-The American tariff and American wealth were brought up in the Chamber Of Deputies today by Deputy Jean Durand as a side issue in discussion of the question of ratification of the Mellon-Borenger debt accord.
 Durand spoke in favor of reser- vationS in the ratification because France has the right to wish to re- main free in the face of pro- digiCusly rich creditor
 He explained that he did not mean France was confronted with American colonization of Europe, but that the United States was in vosting a formidable amount of capital abroad.
 The deputy protested against the imposition of American customs which investigates the figures sub mitted by French exporters and de- cried the 'prohibitory nature of the American tariff which has been strongly protested hy Italy. Bel gium, France and even some AlneflCdllS.
 He suggested that France adopt a similar procedure toward Ameri- can exports.
 Durand applauded the idea ad- yanced by Foreign Minister Briand some time ago for the federation of European states.
 "The United States is too strong for any one of them," he said, but the United States would be feeble in the face of all of them.'
 There were indications that the chamber was anxious to settle the ratification problem. Premier Poin- care. who has been resting after his strenuous fight for ratification with out reservations, may appear later in the day and help in rushing things through in an all-night session.

Paris July IS LP,-Premier Poincare was expected to be back in the Chamber of Deputies some time before the close of todays session to continue his fight for ratification of the debt accords with America and Great Britain.
 His doctors. recognizing that his presence now is not essential to government victory in the chamber. have sought to make him remain in bed another day. and give the extreme exhaustion of yesterday a chance 10 pass away but it was un- dorstood the premier was obdurate in insisting on returning today.
 His battle for ratification of the debt accords. however, has passed its peak and although there will be many speeches in the next day or so it was regarded as unlikely there would be any new phases of op- position to the accords developed.

 which might have been followed lie could have gone out and driven the boys away with threats and a
 ''bawling out" He could have | phoned for a policeman. In either
 case the boys probably would have been back.
 But MT. sherman took the only sure way Of controlling the three youngsters. lie took them into the
 hotel ballroom, overalls, shirt
 sleeves and unwashed faces notwith-
 standing, called Charles D. White,
 the head waiter. and ordered cake
 and ice cream at his own expense
 for all three.
 | The boys grinned sheepishly. ate 1 their cake and ice cream, stood up
 and sang with the regular guests, "
 applauded the speakers, and joine l
 in three cheers for the Rotary club. The meeting over, they disappeared, thrilled and embarrassed
 Their names were not ascertained.
