WRITER'S IN MOSCOW
Relations Between Nations Shaky
After Move Resulting From
Arson Trial Incident.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BERLIN, September ga verbal
note from the foreign ONCE to the
Soviet embassy today described the ex-
pulsion of German correspondents from
Moscow as "reprisal which heavily bur-
dens the amicable relations Of both
countries for which the Soviets are
solely responsible"
German correspondents were asked to
leave the Soviet capital after two Rus
sian reporters had been expelled from
Leipzig. where they had been covering
the Reichstag arson trial.
The note called attention to the fact
that the embassy knew Communist and
Socialist correspondents had been or
dered barred from the trial.
Soviet correspondents going to Leip-
zig caused suspicion that they were try
ing illegally to obtain admittance to
the proceedings. The correspondents
distorted their reports and augmented
the suspicion which led to their tenn
porary arrest"
Regret was expressed In the note at
Russia's having acted without awaiting
German explanation.
