GERMANY HOPEFUL
OF CREDITS BY U. S.
Reich Seeking Advances of $780,
100000 on Purchases
in America.
BY Radio to The Star.

BY Radio to The Star.
BERLIN. Germany, March 31.-Ne-
gotiations for a large American trade
credit to Germany are still continuing
between the German embassy in
Washington and the American Gov
ernment, according to well-informed
circles here
That these talks are not receiving
the encouragement which Berlin had
hoped for is indicated by the secrecy
on the subject in responsible govern
ment departments. However, Wash
ington may be considering them serl-
ously. they are said to have been the
principal reason for the present trip
to Washington of Ambassador William
E. Dodd.
AS previously cabled in these dis
patches, Germany would like long
term credit of around 500,000,00
reichsmarks (S20O. 900 0O0). which the
American Government would advance
to American manufacturers to finance
their exports to Germany. Several
tentative commissions have been
named to speed to Washington as
soon as Ambassador Hans Luther
cables that the time is ripe.
Germany's proposal is based on the
hope that the credit structure set up
by Washington to finance exports to
the Soviet Union on this basis will be
extended to include Germany The
most naive theory here is that Wash
ington may give Moscow cash credit
which it will use in paying its debts
to Germany. Manufacturers here then
will get the benefit as they did several
years ago when the United States di-
rectly furnished them credits tt
finance Germany's trade with Russia

Two-thirds of -Bidjan Is forest

The present population of the re-.
gion is a bare $4,000, of which only
5000 are Jews. Although $500 Jews
settled there last year, instead Of the
expected 10000, it is hoped that TO-
600 or $4,000 may be attracted this
year. The settlement should be
stimulated by the recent decree ex-
exempting peasants in this region from
grain taxes and from half OF the
meat and milk taxes for q l0-year
period.

NASSAU STAY SHORT.
President Gives Luncheon to Gov
and Mrs. Clifford.

NASSAU. N. P, Bahamas, March
81 CPy.-With all the ceremonies at
tendant on a visit by the President
of the United States to a foreign
territory. Mr.. Roosevelt anchored here
for a few hours yesterday.
In this quaint harbor the presi-
Dental yacht was given at 2l-gun
salute from the British cruiser Danae.
The Danae remained outside the reef
protecting the harbor as the Nour-
mahal trailed by the U. S. S. Ellis,
slipped into port for a four-hour stay.
The men Of the destroyer manned
the rail and dipped the presidential
flag in response to the salute from
the Danae.
A typical Roosevelt gesture occurred
here. 1t seemed that on his visit a
year ago Mr.. Roosevelt in kidding
mood declared J. F. Frederick Kerno-
chan of New York. one of his guests,
commissioner of mud" in connection
with the mud fats of this region
where the spongers live.
Yesterday, unknown to Kernochan,
a dilapidated and leaky ship drew by
the presidential yacht with the high
est formality. sponger came on board
with a scrolled certificate and with
utmost ceremony presented it to Ker-
nochan-the only man on the Nour-
mahaI who did not know about the
plan.
The President, already burned by
sun and wind of the Southern waters,
helped put over the affair. Last year
when he was here Mr.. Roosevelt was
busy selecting his cabinet and thus
the fictitious title for Kernochan, a
very intimate friend.
Reception on Yacht.
Early in the morning the President
received Sir Bede Clifford, governor
of the Bahamas, who boarded the
Nourmahal with Lady Clifford, a
daughter of J. B. Gundery of Cleve-
land. Ohio. They remained aboard
for lunch.
The President insisted on holding
to the vacation schedule and from his
yacht tonight there was no official
news as he again sailed the high seas.
Newspaper men who followed the
President to this old British port
were somewhat surprised today to
learn that their copy had gone
through the approving eye Of CEN
SOr.
Sir George johnson, president of
the Legislative Council. assured the
men from the White House that what
they had written had been duly ap-
proved by the proper authorities.

Congressional leaders for the first
time spoke with real confidence to-
day OF May Is as the date for ad-
journment of the Seventy third
Congress.
Only half dozen vital measures
await action.
Since Congress convened in Janu-
ary administration leaders have talked
of winding up the session in mid
May. but. as new legislative demands
continued to pour down from the
White House their tone obviously was
heavier with hope rather than conf
dence
Their assurance today was based on
the final settlement during the past
week of the long deadlock over vet
Grams appropriations, House approval
of the tariff bill and the Senate's
passage of the Bankhead cotton
legislation.
One of President Roosevelt's closest
advisers said privately today the only
remaining bills looked upon as "ab-
solutely necessary are the final ap-
preparation measures, the tax. tariff
and stock market regulation bills, and
a measure. yet to be introduced, pro-
viding new public works funds.
He said President Roosevelt had
no further legislative proposals in
mind. with the possible exception of
a new tax bill to cover the expendi-
lures for veterans and Federal en-
ployeS which Congress voted over his
veto.

ing $500 square miles northwest of

The Biro-Bidjan project is not an

its efforts by financial aid from the
