BASEL, Switzerland, July 9.-Next
Monday the general board of the Bank
for International Settlements meets at
Basel Officials of the bank have
plenty to report as the International
Bank rapidly is getting into its stride,
is more and more becoming the agent
of the central banks and is becoming
trustee for governments in tranSacting
international business. Perhaps, sooner
than most people have thought, the
bank will lose the character of a
reparations bank and will find its place
as useful instrument in aiding and
carrying on the worlds business.
Two-thirds of the proceeds of the
Young plan loan, 100000 900, were al
ready distributed July l. The final fig
ures will be: $132,000,000 to France,
$lO0, 100000 to Germany, $4,000, 900 to
Great Britain, $13,000,000 to Italy,
100000 to Japan, 100000 to Jugo-
slavia and $l,000.O00 to Portugal All
the proceeds of the loan will have been
distributed by next week.
Closes First Big Operation.
The British share in the loan f1ota-
ton because the marketing custom in
London will not be out of the way until
later. But this hardly affects the bank.
With the distribution, the bank closes
successfully its first big operation.
Probably the next important task will
be to act as trustee in the flotation of
the Austrian 100000 900 loan, as over
lures already have been made for the
bank to act as trustee
Further, trustee contracts are being
considered for Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia
and Hungary, as these countries have
complicated financial problems of inter-
national character which the bank is
in position to handle, thereby effecting
economies.
1t is suggested that the bank soon
will be asked to lend a hand in sew

Oountry's defense is threatened
Inc government expected to bring up
the treaty before the Privy Council for
ratification shortly, but Admiral Kato
Unanswered and influenced a SUFFICIENT
number of privy councillors to take the
stand that some military body must
first pass upon the adequacy of the ma
tional defense prior to the Priyy Coun-
ellis ratification. as otherwise they
could not take the responsibility.
Government in Awkward Position.
This places the government in an
awkward position, leaving it with a
choice between the Supreme Military
Council and the Council of Marshals
and AdmiralS. The latter body has not
met in a decade and the only admiral
on the council is Admiral Togo, who
now is aged and retired, but is most in
fiuencial due to his prestige.
Admiral Togo is not opposed to rati-
ncStion, but he supports Admiral Kato's
demands for the creation of 20 new
air corps and one 12,000-ton aircraft
carrier. involving an expenditure of
more than $50, 900 900 and an annual
upkeep of an additional 1000, 900,
which the government opposes.
Effect Is Feared.
There is nothing constitutional to
prevent the government from taking up
the treaty with the Privy Council with
out the approval of the higher naval
and military authorities. but the gov
eminent fears that such action might
endanger ratification. However, the
government might have to resort to
this move, relying upon the pressure
of public opinion, which is strongly
protreaty, to influence or force the
Privy Councils ratification.
Naval Minister Admiral Takarabe is
now canvassing the members of the SUI
preme Military Council and the group
of marshals and admirals IL an effort
to determine whether either higher
body will stand by him as opposed to
Admiral Kato. Should the government
win out, it will be the final blow for
military domination as well as the
breakdown of precedence of established
military prerogativeS.
While the fight now being.M lade is
primarily an internal affair or the
treaty will be ratified even ii cJrogress

U. S., Britain and Japan Ac-

Domestic Politics.
nv the Associated Press.

ny the Associated Press.
Annoy, China, May 12.-Chinese Com
munists Of Southwest Fukien Province
today launched propaganda campaign
against foreigners in China. The Reds
accuse the United States, Great Britain
and Japan of interfering with China S
domestic politics and of supporting va
rious Chinese factions against others to
gain privileges and extend their infiu-
ence.
The Communists charged that the for
eieners sought to extend the spheres OF
their influence throughout China. the
official publication of the local Com
munist organization contained sharp
foreign editorial, accusing Great Britain
and the United States OF supporting
Feng Yu-Hsiang and Yen Shi-Shan,
Northwestern China allies, against the
Nationalist government and the Kuo-
Ynintang "in order to increase their in
fiuence and obtain trade privileges In
Northern China"
A second article accused the United
States and Japan of extending assist
ance to various factions in Southwest
China for the same reasons.
Communist activities in Fukien Prov
ince are steadily increasing, and EVIL
dence has been given that the Reds ap-
parently are attempting to consolidate
their interests throughout Fukien, XII
angst and Kwangtung Provinces. 1t Is
widely believed they are preparing a
concerted move against some major city
within that area, perhaps Swatow or
even Canton.

STEEL co. EARNINGS
ARE CALLED GOOD
Small Decrease Over 1929 First
Quarter-Well Above Two
Previous Years.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PITTSBURGH, May 12.-Steel COM
pany earnings in the first quarter OF
the year were not poor by any means,
showing relatively small decrease
from q year previous and large in
crease over two years previous.
They had good tonnage in the
Hrst quarter of 1928, but prices were
felt to be low, having been engaged
In declining throughout the preceding
wear. AS a matter of fact what little
recovery they had subsequently was all
lost by early this year, and the larger
earnings than two years previous can
be ascribed only to further reduction
in costs.
The unfortunate thing about earnings
Ia the first quarter of this year, Is that
they represent water that has passed
the dam. It is merely history, for
prices have continued to decline and
there is no chance OF tonnage being
materially higher this quarter. !.
The United States Steel untitled
tonnage as of April 30 decreased 216,-
433 tons from the total of March 81,
according to the statement released
today.
There was the formal reduction Of
nearly 81 ton in pipe prices, dated
April /, and sheets, bars, shapes and
plates are all easier than in the first
quarter. AS to the reduction In prices
of wire and wire products announced a
week ago by the Steel Corporation were
subsidiary, that was almost entirely a
recognition of a market previously ex-
listing, but the new prices are distinctly
lower than the average prices Of the
first quarter.

eral of the important Industrial groups.
The comparatively favorable showing of
General Motors limited the decline in
the motor group to 419 per cent, which
otherwise would have shown Qor IL

mining and smelling, 34.6 per cent; mis-
cellaneous manufacturing, 29.7: copper

ment, 21.8, and tobacco products, oil.
The last named decline was the result
of reduced returns for cigar manufac-
turers; most of the leading cigarette
producing companies are experiencing
record breaking earnings. Slightly
lower reductions occurred in at least
seven other important groups. Large
offsetting increases in net income were
registered in only three industrial
groups, viz: Paper, railroad equipment
and theaters. The gain registered in
the last named group is by far the most
impressive and most likely, 1t Is believed,
to be continued throughout the year.
While the 81 utility companies report a
reduction in net of per cent, losses
have been minimized by the stability OF
