SYNDICATE FORMED
Financial Interests Of Two Nations
to Study Investment in
Manchukuo State. IL
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
TOXIC, July 29.-The Toxic Franco
Japanese association has been formed.
1t was announced today, by French and
Japanese financial interests to make in
yestments in the new state Of Manchu-
kuo.
The Association National D'Expansion
E,conomique of Paris is joined with an
influential group Of Japanese financiers
in the organization.
The japanese promoters asserted that
the French are ready to invest 1,000,-
100000 francs currently s53,900 .000)
II their investigations OF Manchukuo
prove satisfactory.
The formation Of the association was
hailed by the japanese interests as evi-
dence of the readiness of French lead
ers to come to a practical understand
ing with Japan concerning Manchukuo
which possibly may lead to recognition.
The state of Manchuquo, set up
with the assistance Of the Japanese to
rule Manchuria, has not been recognized
by powers other than Japan. The
League Of Nations has specifically de-
clared for a policy of non-recognition.
This action was taken on the theory
that Japan ousted the former Chinese
MRnchurian administration by military
force.

LONGER BURROUGHS
GIVEN AT BUREAU.
Printing and Engraving
Workers Get More Leave

ants increased from three days to six

President Roosevelt is considering

Another thing which may come up is
the status Of Raymond Moley an As
sistant Secretary Of State and advisor
to the President.
Some quarters here say Moley may be
shifted to new post. His views on
economic questions have often clashed
with those of Secretary Hull, his nomi-
nal chief. and they differed some In
London.

London, where he baked an angry at
tempt to abandon the conference out
right and lay the blame on the United
States because of the sharpness Of the
Presidents rejection Of the currency

on Hull's coolness and sincerity.
The Secretary is understood to look
favorably on the idea Of going to Monte
video this Winter to personify the de-
clared Roosevelt policy Of the good

If agreements for submission to the
next Congress.
Preliminary trade negotiations already
have taken place with Argentina and

ROOSEVELT ARRIVES
HOME ON VACATION
President Greeted at Station
by Mother and Officials
of Poughkeepsie.
BY J. RUSSELL YOUNG.
Stan Correspondent Of The Star.

HYDE PARK, N. Y, July 29.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt is back at his old home,
Krum Elbow, high on the picturesque
banks of the Hudson River, for the first
visit here since he became President,
and, from all indications, he is looking
forward with real enthusiasm to this
vacation away from the White House.
The President very aptly and happily
expressed his feelings when he said to
a group of neighbors and local citizens
gathered about the station platform to
welcome him upon his arrival: Il am
happy to be back with my friends and
neighbors. am glad to see all Of you"
II am looking forward to some real
rest, and that Is what I hope to get"
Mr.. Roosevelt replied to the cheers as
his car pulled away from the crowd at
Hyde Park Station to 60 to his home
about miles away.
Welcomed at Station.
Mrs. Roosevelt, who had accompanied
him from Washington on the special
train, sat beside him In the White
House limousine, which had been sent
ahead and was ON hand to meet them.
The top Of the car was down, and the
people along the highway had every
opportunity to see their distinguished
neighbors upon their return.
There was no great demonstration
at the station. At the request Of the
President, everything Of this sort had
been abandoned. However, several
hundred citizens assembled at the sta
ton to extend a friendly greeting.
There was no playing Of bands or nag
waving But, there was plenty OF cneer-
ing and hand clapping and both the
PRESIDENT and Mrs. Roosevelt seemed
to appreciate deeply this manifestation
of friendliness.
The only semblance Of an official re-
ception was the presence at the station
Of Mayor Alexander Caven Of Pough-
keepsie, the nearest big town to Hyde
Park. The mayor is a Republican and
makes no secret Of the fact, but this
difference Of politics in no wise lessened
the warmth of his greeting. With the
mayor was a committee of prominent
citizens Of Poughkeepsie and Hyde Park
in which were John K. Sague, former
mayor of Poughkeepsie, who wanted
the newspaper men IN the party 10

James Episcopal Church, frequently at
tended by the President when at Hyde
Park, was on hand to extend well

The first person to greet the Presi-
dent as he alighted from the train was
Mrs. James Roosevelt, his mother, who
had motored down to the station from
Krum Elbow, nearly an hour ahead OF
the train time.
