TOXIC, June ALFRED Massenet,
director Of the Franco-Asiatic Bank,
told the Associated Press yesterday that
he had come to Toxic as the repre- |
sentative of a French financial group, |
which includes banks other than his
own. ready to lend several million
francs" to the state Of Manchoukuo.
The money would be for renewal OF
trackage and rolling stock Of the
Chinese Eastern Railway, the loan to
be made with the provision that Man
ciloukuo and Soviet Russia recognize
to a satisfactory extent the claims OF
French investors who supplied the
original construction funds for the
railway through the Czarist govern
ment and the Russo-Asiatic Bank.
M. Massenet. a grandnephew OF the
French composer, arrived here last
night. but up to now neither ne nor
any one with whom he Is associated
would discuss his mission beyond de-
nying reports that he was trying to
sell any part of the French claims to
the japanese government.
Hope TO Get Representation.
He said today that the French claim
ants hope to obtain representation on
the board of directors of the railway
and revival of portions Of an agree
ment made in 1920 whereby. he said,
the Chinese government recognized the
claims of the Russo -Asiatic Bank In
the railway. This agreement was nulll-
fed in 1924 when the Peking and Muk-
den governments concluded new agree
ments with Soviet Russia for joint
operation Of the railway. In those
agreements the French claims were
ignored.
After the Russian revolution the
French claimants re-established the
Russo-Asiatic Bank in Paris. It Is now
In the course of liquidation and the
Franco -Asiatic Bank succeeded to q
portion Of it's assets.
Although French flnanciers originally
loaned Russia 1,500,000,000 pre-war
francs to build the Chinese Eastern
Railway, NJ MaSsenet said the present
claims amount to only small portion
Of that sum and the claimants are
aware of the necessity OF recognizing
the vast changes which the past ID
years have brought. and are willing to
settle on a realistic business basis.

One of the newspapers printed story
to the effect that French interests have

but NJ Massenet said his group was not
that strong and that nothing on such
an extensive scale was contemplated.
He declined to name specific sums,
but he did say that if Manchoukuo and

claimants to participation in the rail
way. it was certain that good market

While these three well trussed

are two gentleman players whose

Pickle Pointers

Use fresh, crisp, unbrulsed, veg
etables and fruits for relishes or
pickles. Use good grades of vine
gar and spices. Do not use too
much spice. They should season
but not dominate the flavors. II
tied in bag they can be removed
when the vinegar is sufficiently
spiced. If boiled in the vinegar too
long, the spices may give it a bit
ter taste.
If you pack pickles in a stone
crock, cover them with three or
four thicknesses of clean, white
cloth. cut circular, a little larger
than the jar. Invert a plate and
place a clean stone on it, to hold
the pickles under the liquid. Ex-
anime the pickles frequently. It
soft ones appear, remove them.
A few pieces of horseradish
leaf, added to the vinegar will pre-
vent the formation of scum. Grape
leaves added, give brighter color
to pickles. To prevent their fad
ing, pour the vinegar over them
cold, and heat it gradually to the
boiling point.
A small amount of alum helps
to keep the pickles crisp, but too
much may give them disagree
able flavor. If your pickles tend
to become soft, you have probably
used the vinegar too weak, or boil
ed it too long, or heated the pic
kles in it too long, until they are
softened by cooking.
The flavor of pickles is inn
proved by soaking them in brine
for about twenty-four hours.
