TREASURY ASKS
DATA IN LONDON
Demand for Information in
Income Tax Drive
Causes FURRY.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the ASSOCIATED Press.
LONDON, August 24.-The long
arm of the United States Treasury,
extended here in the shape of a
demand for particulars as to Wall
Street transactions and commodity
deals in America, with a view of the
collection of the United States in
come tax, caused a furry in Stock
Exchange and banking circles today.
Hurried meetings were being held
to consider this unexpected develop
ment in the United States collection
drive.
Oficials studied press reports from
Washington and New York relative
to the American income tax moves,
but an authoritative source said that
so far no British citizens have asked
for government investigation.
British firms and individuals, it was
said, have received income tax de-
mands from the United States and
these papers are being used as a
basis for studies of the problem by
financial and commercial groups.
The first intimation of the United
States Treasury action came in the
form of circular letters to London
bankers and foreign exchange brok-
ers. and an informal committee of
Stock Exchange members was formed
to consider the matter. They sub
mitted report to the Stock Exchange
Committee for its approval.
The British banking association
will meet in the next few days to
talk things over and decide on the
attitude which the bankers will adopt
in the matter before communicating
with American authorities.

OIL ALL0WABLES
REDUCED BY ICKES
Daily Quota Lowered 107, 500
Barrels to 2,341, ZOO for
September.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The national allowable crude oil
production for September was set yes
terday by Secretary Ickes at 2,341, 700
barrels, decrease of lot 500 barrels
from the August quota of 2,449, 800
daily.
The allowable was reduced chiefly
because of the usual seasonal decline
in gasoline consumption and unex-
pected drop in gasoline demand due
to the drought. Another contributing
factor was desire to lower gasoline
inventories, which were described as
still considerably above a sound eco
nomic level.
The cut in the quota was distributed
among all producing States, except
Colorado, Louisiana and Montana,
whose allowables were not changed.
Texas, California and Oklahoma,
the leading producers, were cut 81, 900,
80 200 and 10, 100 barrels to respective
daily averages of 968, 400, $4,000 and

Industrial Loans
Increase $4,000
At Reserve Banks

BY the Associated Press.
Federal Reserve banks showed an
$4,000 increase in industrial loans
for the week ending August %.
Total loans of that class were
1926, 900, against $214.000 the previous
seven days.
Industrial loans now are being made
by both the Reserve banks and the
Reconstruction Corp. under author
ization of the last Congress.
The step was taken after officials
had leveled considerable criticism at
banks for their supposed failure to
grant credit to deserving industry and
business.
Total r. F. C. loans are around
$4,000, 900, and officials there expect
no spectacular gains. The r. F. C.
and the Reserve Board are co-operat-
ing in the program.
Meanwhile, the Reserve statement
yesterday showed that the daily aver
age volume of Reserve bank credit
for the week ended August %, was
50, 464, 000, 900, a decrease of $4,000, 900
compared with the preceding week
and an increase of 1921, 200, 900 COM

MOSCOW, June 10 (By Radio
Six death sentences by shooting and
fourteen to varying terms of i'm
prisonment were melted out Satur-
day in Kiev to group Of employees
of the economic department of the
Kiev Regional Executive Committee,
tried on charges of stealing state
property, speculation in foreign ex-
change currency and stolen goods.
Almost all of the accused, exposed
by the O.GP.U. UNITED State Polit-
ical Department. were of bourgeois
origin, former traders and specu-
lators who succeeded by means of
forgeries to conceal their shady past
and to work their way through to
Soviet service for the purpose OF
personal gain.
The accused include also several
employees of the economic depart
ment charged with liberation of the
spectators in violation of the pro-
letarian state discipline.
Those sentenced to Imprisonment
include the former secretary OF the
presidium of the Kiev Regional Ex-
ecutive Committee.
AS is we'll known, certain sections
of the West European bourgeois
press attempted to utilize the Kiev
trial for circulating fresh anti-Sov-
let canards comparing the trial to

and schauenberg Of the L S. u. through police
terror. But their ranks remain firm.
The New York strike OF the crew Of the Texan
marked the first step in extending this strike into
national struggle Under the leadership Of the
Marine workers Industrial Union, this crew came out
on strike for their own demands and in support
of the West Coast strikers.
That the militant action of the seamen Of the
Texan was to have tremendous effect in all North
Atlantic ports is already proven. few days after
the Texan strike, rank and file members OF the In
ternattonal Longshoremen's Association refused for
three hours to work the steamers Lena Luckenbach
and President Cleveland.
In view of the tremendous forces being mo-
bilized against the West Coast longshoremen and
ssamen, such actions assume the greatest i'm
portsnce. This must be utilized to further extend
the struggle and to mobilize the mass Of seamen
and longshoremen for Joint struggle with the Pacific
Coast marine workers. This becomes particularly
necessary in view of the terror directed against the
strikers. Three longshoremen have already been
murdered by the shipowners' agents and many
wounded. The San Pedro Branch of the M W. L u
reports that the notorious Red Squad there is daily
arresting large groups of seamen holding them
without charges, nfcting the most brutal fortunes
on them and then releasing them with instructions
to leave town.
Only the Marine Workers Industrial Union has
rallied the seamen and ongshoremen for support OF
the West Coast strike Not only have the officials
of the International Longshoremen's Association
failed to call for action but when their rank and
file took action three ships President Ryan wired
from San Francisco instructing them to return to
work. The officials of the international Sesmens
Union ordered the crew of the Texan out OF their
Office when they proposed the united action of all
unions In support of the West Coast.
The demonstration today at Pier g. Brook
lyn. called by the Marine Workers Industrial
Union and Rank and File l. l.. A. Action Com
mittee is of the greatest Importance. 1t will mark
further step in rallying the marine workers in
the North Atlantic ports for action 1t will be a
mighty protest against scab ships arriving here
loaded with cargo stained by the blood Of muir
dered longshoremen. 1t will be in protest of the
terror launched by the police and courts and for
the right to strike and picket! 1t will be real
demonstration of sOlidari.y with the West Coast
strike and protest against the strike breaking
