 All Soviet trading organizations were prohibited from placing or ders or making purchases in Great Britain.
 All Soviet organizations or citi- zens were prohibited from char tering vessels that fly the British flag.
 Measures were enumerated to limit as much as possible the ship ment of British goods through So- viet territory.
 The use of British ports and sea | bases by Soviet export organiza- tions was stringently limited. The commissariat of water trans- port simultaneously ordered high CT taxes on British vessels navi- gating in Soviet waters. Hereto fore a reduced rate under the An glo-Soviet trade agreement was ap- piled.
 The Soviet action brought Anglo Soviet friendship, seriously en- dangered by the arrest and trial o1 six British subjects before revo- lutionary tribunal, to the edge oi a complete break. Diplomatic cir

 complete severence of all relations diplomatic as well as commercial Some observers still hoped the

 The police oetail, which handled the situation at the outset of the blaze. which appeared most threat ening at the start, was in charge of Lieutenant James Mulville and Ser geant Thomas Wilton.
 Some 30 young ladies employed by Sugenheimer's appeared for work at their usual hour and were noticeably shocked to discover their place of employment in the hands of firemen and policemen. Davis and Yves and the Irving Shoe store opened at the usual time, af- ter the places had been well aired. Tarpaulin was placed on all the cases in the jewelry store to pre- vent loss.

FRANCE AGAIN TALKING ABOUT
 PROPAGANDA
One Journalist Wants Fora eign Correspondents Given Greater Scope in Order to Get Correct News

Paris, April 22-(UP)-A plea that foreign correspondents be given larger privileges to obtain a full range of French news as one method to offset "cooked-up" prop aganda is voiced by the influential journalist, Vladimir D'Ormesson, in an article in the semi-official news paper Le Temps.
 D'Ormesson, referring to the re- cent foreign office budget report which earmarked 33,000,00O francs for propaganda purposes" in the press abroad, particularly the United States, deplored the idea of flooding the world with propagan- da.
 "To envisage good international relations by means of propaganda appeals to mo to be vicious meth od," he wrote. True propaganda isn't cooked up-it is born spon- taneously."
 D'Ormesson asserted there were only two sane forms of propa- ganda:
 l. Helping foreign correspond ents to obtain a complete range of French news, introducing them to the most representative circles ol opinion; and.
 2. Inducing eminent French men to show themselves outside of France more often.
 "The Frenchman Is ridiculously dom mesticated," he asserted. He is afraid to leave home. I would like to start a more active current be- tween French and foreign intel lectuals so that more represent alive Frenchmen will be seen 1T the world capitals"
 The journalist pointed out tha 1 Chancellor Adolf Hitler, of Ger many, had created a ministry o propaganda, but that Germany quickly lost the sympathy of An glo- Saxon countries gained during | the past 12 years.

 Report Favorable
Net Income in Five Months Is $lz,46O.35-Cash on
 Hand Insufficient for Dividend

Iy for at least several months. In order to pay such a dividend, the receiver would have to have ap- proximately S13,O0O in the commer cial side and approximately $35,- OOO in the savings department. The receiver has to raise about $14,- 900 additional cash to the amount now on hand to make a 10 per cent dividend possible.
 The receiver gives as the reason for the delay in another dividend, the difficulty in making collections caused by present business condi- tions.
 The report shows a decrease in al classes of deposits which is the result of offsets allowed by the court, payment in full of ali ac- counts under $5, 25 per cent di- vidend on April 20, 1892 and a IS per cent dividend on December IA, 1892.
 The receiver points out that the total amount of cash due from banks and government securities in the commercial department are sufficient to cover all deposits ir that department. It is explained however, that payment of these funds to the commercial deposltors is contingent upon the success o1 the receiver in liquidating the sav- ings department assets. This is due to the fact that if there is a deficit in the savings department after al savings assets have been turned in. to cash, under Connecticut law, the amount of the shortage becomes claim against the commercial de. pertinent, sharing ratably witt commercial depositors in all diW dends from that department.
 The receiver adds that as i seems likely there will be a sub stantial deficit in the savings de partment, the receiver is legall! compelled to withhold large sur plus in the commercial departmen for the protection of the saving depositors.

MacDonald and Herriot

Washington, April 22-UP)- Return of fixed monetary exchange standards and revision of war debts took important roles to-day at the start of the Roosevelt Macdonald , talks.
 Within an hour after he reached the White House to begin his mo- mentous conversations, the prime minister said this country had long desired to discuss with other nations the restoration of normal ity in fuctuating exchanges. He said the problem would be thor oughly explored.
 This was in answer to a. ques- ton regarding re-establishment of the international gold standard. War debt revision, MT MacDon- aid continued, was part of the general economic problem. He placed no special emphasis on this question.
