TREASURY DEFINES
REICH TRADE CURB
Ruling Won't Ease Restric.
tons, State Department
Warns.
By the Associated Press.

By the ASsoclete0 FreSS.
State Department officials advised
today against overestimating the ef-
fects on German-American trade OF
the Treasury,s ruling that this trade
can be carried on with the use Of
blocked" marks and barter without
becoming subject to additional duties.
The Treasury, they said, was not
pointing toward practical trade &C
complishments, but was defining the
law.
Blocked marks are German funds
owned by Americans and other for
eigners in bank deposits in Germany
which can be used only for limited
purposes permitted by the govern
ment and cannot be removed from the
country.
Practice Stopped In June.
The common practice OF using
blocked marks in German-American
trade was stopped by mutual consent
when the Treasury, on June 4, 1885,
imposed "countervailing" duties on
German imports financed by marks
bought at discount.
These duties were designed to Offset
the advantages gained through the
discounts.
They were removed on August II,
1896, when the German government
enacted . law prohibiting the use Of
blocked marks in conflict with United
States customs laws.
The Treasury action yesterday was
Q clarification Of those laws.
Under the Treasury definition the
owner Of blocked marks may use
them in financing German exports
to this country, provided he has had
continuous possession Of the marks
since they became subject to German
governmental control.
Another provision permitted pur-
chases Of German goods for export
to this country with marks obtained
from the sale Of American merchan-
disc In Germany. This provision was
subject to certain qualifications.
In its regulations the Treasury
sought to prevent the financing Of
German exports with marks obtained
at discount rates. The discount, 1t was
explained, would act as an export
bounty or subsidy and would have to
be offset by countervailing duties in
American ports.
Barter Defined.
The Treasury described permissible
barter as "the exchange Of mer-
chandise between single German and
American parties without any none
tary transaction actually taking
place"
State Department ofiicials said the
Treasury action may remove some Of
the German-American trade dimcul-
ties. but that until its practical effects
were demonstrated it should not be
overestimated.
Senator Pittman, chairman Of the
Senate Foreign Relations Commit
tee, said . broad vista Of German
American trade could not be opened
until the German government re-
faxed its grip on currencies and per-
mitted freer now Of international
exchange.

the early morning hours.

ceeded automatically when the guilty
verdict was brought in against Gomez.
The before-dawn climax Of the
struggle was precisely what the whole
capital expected. As result, sparse
crowds accepted the news with an
apparent lack Of interest.
Immediately after the dismissal,
which Gomez expected and prepared
for, the retiring President issued
bristling statement denouncing army
leaders and charging they sought to
arrogate civil authority to themselves.
His accusations reflected the issue
on which his defense staked vindica-
ton: That q verdict against the ex-
ecutive would throw Cuba into q mill
tary dictatorship.
He was impeached in the House Of
Representatives and brought to trial
before the Senate after he had op-
posed q 9-cents-a-bag sugar tax bill
to finance an army-sponsored program
Of rural education.
His opposition brought into the open
his smouldering fight with Col. Full
gencio Batista, strong man" head Of
the army, who has been the power
behind Cubas government since 1888.
The Senate's decision to remove the
President was contained In its vote
convicting him, because Of his stand
on the sugar tax bill, Of interfering
with the free functioning Of the legis-
lative power"
In his statement, Gomez attributed
his downfall to the long undersurface
battle between him and the military.
Within reasonable limits, he main
tanned, he sought to cooperate with
The army. "but they wanted more-to
rival the executive power and COM
mand the palace from Camp Columbia
(srmy headquarters)."
Charges Against Army Leaders.
Army leaders, Gomez charged. tried
70 invade" the presidential authority
through interferences and inspections
designed to intervene and establish
vigilance over It: depreciating it and
tearing from 1t functions and
treasury income over which only the
civil administration has authority"
Before vetoing the sugar tax bill,
the expelled President contended. he
tolerated army demands that were not
prejudicial to the people.
But, he added. encroachments by
the military became many and daily, "
and he felt bound to "detain such
dissolving action against the political
structure and administrative organ
nations"
To usurp power, he charged, the
army juggled the national budget,
AL this resulting from . growing
preponderance Of armed institutions. -
All members Of the Gomez cabinet,
In accordance with custom, immedi-
ately rendered their designations.
Mysteriously, however, Gomez re-
jected the resignation Of Rafael Mon
talvo, secretary Of defense and . close
friend Of Batista, accepting all others.
