j. s. PROTEST
On GERMANY :
MORATORIUM

WASHINGTON, June 18. W.H-
The American ambassador in Ber-
lin, William E. Dodd, has been in
structed to protest vigorously
against new financial DEGREES by
the German government which cul-
minated in the declaration of a six
months moratorium in all foreign
payments, the state department an
nounced today.
William Phillips, undersecretary
of state, said Dodd had been in
structed to protest especially ener-
getically against the provisions Of
the moratorium which American
officials consider highly discrimi-
natory against American investors
and American holders Of German
foreign bonds. i"9 #f
The ambassador was instructed
to state that Germany's action
affects the United States seriously
and this government wished to ex-
press the strongest regrets that
new losses were imposed upon Am
erican citizen, and the debtor
creditor relationships have been
impaired further.
With regard to the alleged dis
criminatory phases of the German
moratorium action, Dodd was in
structed to say that the United
States would view with disapprov-
al any developments under which
it's investors would receive less
favorable treatment than the in
vestors of other countries.
The spectacle of having not only
to accept losses but also to stand
by and witness payments to the in
vestors of other nationalities be-
ing made out of German funds at
the American investors expense
would arouse a sense of mistreat-
ment among numerous American
| investors, Dodd was instructed tc

BERLIN, June 18. U.I) THE
marked. difference of opinion be-
tween the. conservative and radical
wings bf the Nazi party was en-
phasized today when newspapers
were forbidden to publish an ad-
dress of Vice Chancellor Franz Won
Papen. saoL
A broadcast of the speech from
a photograph record, which had
been scheduled for this afternoon,
also was prohibited.
Papen, who represents to conser-
vativeV or Junker element in the
government, advocated the right to
criticize the governments right
that has been sternly suppressed
under Nazi rule. Now that the
early revolutionary enthusiasm is
slackening, he said, it is lime for
statesmen to talk to the people
frankly, and to make constructive
criticism.

be wholly inadequate to maintain nav

DRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, in let
ter to the senate and house bank
ing committees, asked congress to set
up twelve industrial credit banks
which he had been told would safe
guard the jobs of $4,000 persons and
create work for $4,000 more. Imme-
diately after the Presidents wishes
were known legislation was introduced
in both houses giving the federal re-
serve system authority to create the
banks, financing them by selling $780,
100000 of stock to the treasury. ..
The plight of the small or medium
size" industrialist was stressed by the
President, and he cited results ola sur
vey indicating that such industry was
badly in need of S700,OOO,OO0 working
capital.
The President asked for "early con-
sideration" of his proposal, pointing
out that the situation called for Sim
mediate relief"
The Presidents letter to Chairmen
Fletcher and Steagall of the senate
and house banking committees said
the proposed banks would be con-
trolled by directOrates a majority of
which will themselves be Industrial
lists. Mr.. Roosevelt said:
Il have been deeply concerned with
the situation in our small industries.
In numberless cases their working cap
ital has been lost or seriously depleted.
I'VE have afforded much aid in the
recovery of agriculture, commerce, our
larger industries and our financial in
st&utions, and our improved condition
nationally furnishes full justification
for these efforts. We must continue
in behalf of the medium size man in
industry and commerce"
The credit banks proposed in the
bills introduced would be chartered by
the existing Federal Reserve banks
and be operated subject to the regula-
tons of the reserve board. They would
set up branches.
