Sniping U. S. Dollar
Resumed in Paris

Administration officials received
reports today Of the renewed cam
paign against the dollar in France
with a reinsurance that this coun-
try would stick to the gold
standard.
The attitude of the French news
p pers, several of which have
aired false views of the American
financial situation, was held here
as somewhat strange in view of
the fact that France owes the
United States several billion dol
lars and has been granted a
moratorium, while at the same
time she is making extensive
loans to other countries.
The French economic position
probably is as sound as that in
any country of the world. France
has about $4,000, 900 invested in
the United States, according to
Commerce Department figures.
At the Treasury and the Federal
Reserve Board it was reiterated
that the United States is on the
gold standard to stay, and is alb
solutely secure in that position
unless everybody who holds gold
certificates and Federal Reserve
notes demands immediate pay
ment in gold.

Curb on Short Sales
Looms in New York

NEW YORK, April 9 G.N.S)-
A new and stringent curb on short
selling was the answer of stock
exchange officials today against
the surprise investigation of stock
market activities voted by the Sen
ate Banking and Currency Com
mittee.
Members of the exchange were
notified today that beginning Mon
day they must report the short
positions, including odd lots in
each stock for each account for
customers, giving the name of the
owner of the account as of the
close of business every clearing day
thereafter.
The committee on business con.
duct also requested all New York
City members Of the exchange to
send it today all telegraphic COM
municationS dealing with any sub
ject other than specific orders.
The last rule. it is believed, is
aimed to ferret out the source of
the rumors regarding situations"
which have been flooding Wall
Street in the last two weeks.

Attacks on Dollar
Called malicious"

NEW YORK, April 9 GN.SD,
Attacks in the French press on
the stability of the American dol
lar were described as malicious
and without basis of fact by
bankers in the Wall Street dis
trict today.
The bankers saw no reason to
be alarmed over the campaign
abroad against the financial
standing of the United States.
Neither was any apprehension ex-
pressed concerning resumption of
the flow of American gold to
France.
French spectators, according
to one view expressed here to-
day, are endeavoring to advance
the exchange value of the franc
against the American dollar.

GIVE
NEW LIFE To
SALES TAX
u. S. Chamber of Commerce
Backing Helps Advocates;
King for Monopoly Levy

A renewed drive for a mod
crate sales tax, as a substitute
for heavier excise taxes, and a
demand for a special tax or
monopolies, provided fresh am
munition today in the Senate
warfare over balancing the
budget.
The action of the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States
in indorsing a sales tax inspired
it's Senate advocates. The ma
tional business organization, by
overwhelming vote of its local
chambers, declared in favor of a
broad range of taxes upon
articles of wide use but not of
first necessity.
Food, Clothes Exempt
This would exclude food and
clothing from the proposed tax.
The monopoly tax was sug-
gested by Senator King (DO of
Utah, who declared monopolies
were created through the aid of
Federal protective legislation and
therefore should be forced to pay
a fair share Of governmental eX-
penSe during emergencies.
He advocated a specia, tax on
rentals from patented machinery,
in cases where the patents eStab-
lished monopolies.
King also suggested a tax on
the business returns of foreign
corporations operating in the
United States. He declared a
large number of Canadian cor
porations were acquiring profits
in this -Lntry and escaping taxa
ton.
The Senate Finance Committee,
now studying the House bill, will
meet again Monday to resume its
hearings.
Mono Y and Tuesday the COM
mittee will hear witnesses on the
income tax features of the bill

tax Tuesday afternoon.

Raids on Dollar
Rumors have persisted here for
several days that the raids on the
American dollar abroad, partic.
ularly in France, we're to be ac-
companied by "heavy liquidation"
Of stocks and bonds owned in this
country by French and other for
eign interests.
1t was apparent that members
of the committee feared a COM
bination of French interests with
American bears for a concen.
trated drive on stock and bond
values.
1t was learned, too, that the
reports were given the commit
tee by three different Senators
Kean (RD of New Jersey, Wal
colt (R0 of Connecticut, the
Presidents spokesman in the
Senate, and Goldsborough (RO
Of Maryland. All have either
banking or security connections.

The investigation will start
with Whitney. AS the first wit
ness. He was ordered to bring
all records of the exchange touch
ing short selling.

would lapse after Whitney's tes-
timony, with indications point
ing to the Administrations wish
ing to hold it as a sort Of club
over the heads of short sellers.

DOCTORS
AID DARROW

LOS ANGELES, April 9 G.N.S0 e.
The two psychiatrists called un-
expectedly to Honolulu, possibly
to appear for the defense in the
ForteScue-Massie trial, are among
the outstanding men of their pro-
fession in the United States.
DR.. Thomas j. Orbison and DR..
Edward Huntington Williams,
both of whom reside here, have
won fame in past legal battles.
Both were listed as state experts
in the trial of William Edward
Hickman, charged with the slay-
ing of little Marian Parker.
DR.. Orbison in fact, was de-
scribed as "one Of the most col.
orful of the battery of seven
alienists in the case"
His career has been adventure
some. After his graduation in
1898, he gained hospital expert
ence in Pennsylvania and Califor-
mia. He served with the Army
during the World War and at its
termination was sent to Russia
for medical work.
DR.. Orbison has written several
books on psychiatry as has DR..
Williams. DR.. Williams, a pro-
lific writer, was born in Charles
City, Iowa, and was connected
with the University of iowa in
1892 and 1898.
DR.. Williams was an associate
editor Of the tenth edition of
the Encyclopedia Brittanlca. In
cluded among his many books are

"The reports indicated today
was to have been the blacklist
Saturday Of all trading history"
This Senator said recent bear
raids on the market had Slashed
81, ,000, 200. 900 from stock and bond
values. He added:
Zone Of ouT purposes in TAX
ing this emergency action was
to prevent the shorts from milk
ing another $1,OOO,OOO,OOO out
of the market. We figured that
if the short traders knew their
operations were to be investi-
gated by the Senate, it would
discourage their raids"
Aside from trying to avert the
raid, the committee also
was determined to learn the iden-
tity of interests behind the short
selling maneuverS which persisted
for eight successive days. The
Senator added:
1--WE want to obtain all the
information we can about short
selling operations. We would
like to learn particularly just
what interests are behind these
bear raids, who conducts the
operations and who lends the
stocks which make shOrtselling
operations possible"
This was taken as a hint that
the inquiry would cover the re-
ports that foreign interests have
had a hand in smashing stock
prices in the last few weeks.
The inquiry will be broad
enough to determine whether for

a few hours later in Mrs. ForteS-

It is believed, however, that she
will be called to the stand to
bolster her expected plea OF
emotional insanity"
Moving swiftly to meet the
surprise arrival of two noted
alienistS from the mainland in
behalf of the defense, the Govern
ment attorneys today were in
communication with eminent
psychiatriSts in the United States,
making arrangements for their
presence in Honolulu when re-
quired.
Prosecutor John C. Kelley said:
1--WE don't propose to be
jockeyed into a position from
which we cannot properly pros
ecute the Governments case.
If the defense presents a de-
Tense of insanity. we will at
once ask the cOur1 for two
weeks delay in order that we
may bring mental experts from
the United States to testify. /

visOrs will authorize such an

The polyglot jury that will
hear the case, half Caucasian,
half men Of mixed blood, will
spend the weekend in their
homes. under court orders to hold
themselves aloof from contact
with the swirling currents Of
prejudice that lie close to the
surface in this tropical paradise.
Unwritten Law Factor
The "unwritten law" is ex'
pected to figure as the back
ground of the defense'S case,
whatever final form it may take.

be the two eminent Los Angeles
alienists, Drs. Edward H. Williams
and Thomas J. Orbison, who ar
rived Unexpectedly on the scene.
But the Spearhead of his at

patrician American society wo-
man herself.
If the emotional insanity" plea
Is to be advanced as the major
premise of the defense, it may
well be predicated upon Mrs.
Fortescue taking the stand and
relating for the first time the

death.

that her story will be the big
moment" Of the trial.
