DEBT LAW PROTEST
Official Newspaper Warns
Government Will Not Be
Coerced to Settle.
HITS CLASSIFICATION

Organizations Admonished Not to

Obstacles in Way.
BY the Associated Press.

BY Lne ASSOCldteu FlSSss
MOSCOW, April 17-An active
Soviet reprisal against the newly en-
acted United States law against fur
ther loans to debtors came today in
an admonition to Soviet economical
organizations by 1.-The newspaper for
industrialization" to alter their re-
puted intention to give preference to
American materials and equipment for
the remainder of the second flve-year
plan.
The newspaper warned that the
Soviet government will not be coerced
into a debt settlement.
The statement by the official organ
of the commissariat of heavy industry
was the first public reaction to the
johnson law.
1t described it as "a menace TO
Soviet t-American trade" and declared
in effect that Soviet Russia will not
deal with a country placing such an
obstacle in its way.
Soviet Default Denied.
The organ asserts the Johnson bill
complicates matters between the two
countries lust as large-scale busl-
ness is in the process of concrete ne
gotiations."
The newspaper protests classlhca-
ton of the Soviet government-which,
it says, never defaulted penny OF its
own engagementS-With those hatly
refusing to pay their obligations.
Criticizing the Washington Export
and Import Bank for it's decision to
refrain from Soviet credit transac-
tions until pre-bolshevik debts are
settled, it said:
1T is doubtful whether the authors
of this resolution realize the serious
menace it represents for Soviet Amer
ican trade, which has finally entered
the path of potential development.
mo other explanation can be found
for the adoption of such resolution
by a bank founded for the special
purpose Of stimulating trade relations.
Says Time Needed.
Experience has shown that dis
puted questions, such as claims and
counter claims, need time for their
settlement, because Of the necessity OF
protracted negotiations.
IF the authors of the banks reSo-
luton hope to use it as a means of
pressure to obtain concessions from
us, they will find such an attempt
futile"
The newspaper said the establish
ments of diplomatic relations natur-
ally was expected to result in the
stimulation of economic relations be-
tween the two countries, and that in
pursuance of that theory concrete
plans took form here to increase the
volume of trade.
Prefer U. S. Products.
"Our foreign trade" said the Jour
nal "as well as the entire Soviet
national economy, is based on def
mite plan of future development. Re
Gently our economic organs elaborated
the final import plans to end the
second fve-year plan.
"Our preference for everything
American was expressed by Ambassa-
dor Litvinoff in Washington. and
since then those plans have shown
definite trend toward America.
I'm view of the present situation,
however, we are compelled to admon-
ish our economic planners that this
deviation must be Strengthened"

OIL LLEWRETA|NED,
SENATE RETURNS
TAX BILL TO HOUSE
Harrison Asks Parley in
Move to Prevent Veto
of Measure.
NO EFFORT is MADE
TO RECONSIDER VOTE
Observers Believe Section Roose-
velt Opposes Will Be Re-
moved in Conference.
BY the Associated Press.

In a move foreshadowing the pos
sible veto of the 10000, 900 revenue
bill, the Senate today returned the
measure to the House without seeking
reconsideration of taxes on Philippine
coconut oil opposed by President
Roosevelt.
Mr.. Roosevelt has indicated he
would veto the legislation if the CO.
conut oil levies are retained. He
maintains that action violated the
Philippine independence act.
Chairman Harrison of the Finance
Committee moved to ask the House
for a conference. but made no ex-
planation at the time as to what the
plans were in connection with the
Philippine levy.
1t was believed by observers, how
ever, that some plan was under con-
sideration looking to elimination Of
the tax before the bill goes to the
White House.
Two Attempts Fail.
Two attempts to get around the tax
affecting the Philippines-one to ex-
empt the status quo importations from
the Islands and another to strike
out the tax entirely already have been
defeated III the Senate by decisive
margins.
Since the House also put a Philip
pine oil tax in its bill, conferees on
the dsagreeing votes of the two
chambers are prohibited from elimi-
mating the tax or exempting Philip
pine importations unless by gentle
mems agreement. Then the modifica-
ton would face parliamentary
challenge on the floors.
Leaders today expressed the hope
way would be found to rewrite this
part of the bill to the Presidents

PARIS PAPER ADMITS ERROR:

officials of the State Department, who
had known Mariner as an able diplo-

terview in the French newspaper. But,
since there was no record OF any
denial by Mariner in the files Of the
State Department, the State Depart

on it, until it obtained radio message
from Mariner, who was on the high
seas returning to his Paris post.
The answer was what the State De-

TROTSKY ORDERED
TO LEAVE FRANCE
Cabinet Holds Noted Exile
Has Violated Political
Neutrality.
BY the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
PARIS, April 17-Leon Trotsky
exiled Russian revolutionist, was or
dered to leave France by the govern
ment today, because of his efforts to
organize world revolution.
Minister of the Interior Albert Sar-
raut announced the cabinet decided
to withdraw the permission granted
TrotSky to live in France, because he
violated the political neutrality
which was made a condition of his
stay at Barbizon.
TrotSky has been living in a Sc
cluded villa near Barbizon, about 35
miles from Paris, since granted secret
permission by the ministry of the in
terror when he came to France from
Corsica last July.
Presence Concealed.
The most extraordinary precautions
were taken there to conceal his pres
ence, for he feared attacks on his
life by White Russians.
Villagers who became suspicious of
the mysterious character of the
Trotsky household, however, reported
to Barbizon authorities. They, unap-
prised of the governments arrange
ments with Trotsky, kho had lived in
their midst for months without their
knowing 1t, raided the villa Sunday.
A nationwide clamor of protest for
Trotsky's expulsion developed imme-
diately after the public learned of his
mysterious Barbizon hideaway.
Destination Unknown.
Sarraut declined to say whether
Trotsky would be permitted to return
to Corsica or whether he would be
compelled to quit French territory en-
tirely.
If the latter course is taken. it was
presumed Trotsky-a man without a
country'-would return to his former
Turkish exile, which he left osten-
sibly because of boredom and poor
health.
Threats by White Russians gained
TrotSky the assurance of safe conduct
from his Barbizon refuge.
Because he is "a meriaced man. the
police said he probably would be con-
Quoted out Of the country with the
greatest discretion and the utmost
secrecy"
His expulsion is likely with "a hours,
an official said.
Around the ears of cabinet men,
bers beat a nationwide clamor for
Trotsky's expulsion.
Demands Deportation.
The Nationalist press demanded the
immediate deportation of the man one
newspaper described as installed like
a worm in the fruit" in one of the
loveliest spots in the country.
1t is charged that Trotsky has been
actively promoting his Fourth Inter-
national through the Russian review,
the Bulletin of the Opposition" which
he is openly conducting in Paris.
Trotsky already has formed in
France, the Nationalist press asserted.
"Neo-Communist Leagues" and a
center of action" whose objective is
a general strike and civil war"
To all of these charges-and to
caustic comment from the Socialist
press-the exile is silent. Police sur
veillance was withdrawn from his villa

sition for a strong national defense
the Forty-third Continental Congress
Daughters Of the American Revolu.
ton, today formally urged the Con.
gress of the United States to substan-
TALLY strengthen both the Army anc
Navy.
Adoption of two resolutions to this
effect followed stirring addresses last
night by Secretary Of War Dern anc
Assistant Secretary of the Navy
Roosevelt. both of whom had empha-
sized the necessity of preparedness as
the best guarantee of peace.
The sum Of $1,000 was raised BY
the Daughters at the morning session
toward the fund for paying of the
debt on Constitution Hall. Mrs. Mag
ma. the president general, explained
that prior to this program this morn
ing all of the $4,000, 900 of the build
Ing cost had been paid with the ex.
ception of about $350,000 and 1t was
hoped to pay this off by the time the
D. A. r. Congress comes back next
year.
Congress was asked by the Daueh-
tiers to provide "for an efficient Army
in accord with the national defense
act OF 1920 and with a complete pro-
gram OF moderniZation."
Urge Naval Building.
For the Navy the D. A. r. urged
Congress to appropriate funds neces-
sary lor carrying out provisions OF
the VlnSon- Trammell naval act, which
authorized building the Navy up to
treaty limits.

forces OF the United States rank seven

The success Of the policy of the
united States" declared the resolu-
tion, demands an Army efficient in
every branch, making a well-balanced
framework upon which to build In
emergency. The chief of staff has
recommended the motorization and
modernization of that branch known
as the standing Army"
The resolution placed the D. A. r
on record officially to urge that Con-
gress adopt legislation providing fol-
an efficient Army in accord with the
national defense act of 1920 and with
a complete program of moderniza-
ton"
Cites Previous Resolutions.
The Navy resolution, also offered by
Mrs. Johnston, pointed out that Con-
gress had enacted legislation author
izing the building of the United States
Navy to the strength provided for in
the naval treaty. THAT strength, >
the resolution continued, was set al
the irreducible minimum commensur-
ate with the defense Of the United
States and the maintaining of its
policies.
'The Daughters of the American
Revolution, in previous congresses
have repeatedly adopted resolutions
urging the building of the Navy to
the limits set forth by the London
Naval Treaty."
In conclusion, the resolution placed
the Daughters on records to COM
mend the Congress of the United
States for the passage of the Vinson-
Trammell naval bill, and urged the ap-
preparation of funds necessary for
carrying out its provisions.
The question of national defense
was scheduled to come up again late
