SIAM PUTS U. S.
STATE DEPT. IN
ODD QUANDARY
Bars Pact Because Of
Land Bans Here

U.N.S). Far away Siam, whose
population is about 100000,
had the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee and the State Depart
ment in a quandary today be-
cause it refuses to approve prof
fered reciprocal trade agreements
until the Siamese are permitted
to own land in this country.
State Department officials, seek
ing to solve the dilemma, called
In the Foreign Relations Commit
tee, when an old statute was
brought to light that California,
and several other States, will not
allow Siamese to own land.
UPHELD BY HIGH COURT
And to make matters worse, it
was pointed out that the Supreme
Court of the United States has
upheld these laws.
State Department attorneys
were reported to have advised
their chief that the problem
evolves into one of a constitu-
tional nature. They declared that
unless the States retract their
bans against land ownership by
the SiameSe, the Governments
hands will be tied in negotiating
trade agreements so long as Siam
insists on equal rights" for her
citizens in this country.
1t all started several months
ago when a good-sized chunk of
American capital was invested in
Siam in options in tin reserves.
The matter rested quietly until
American capitalists announced
they were ready to take up the
options.
TITLES WITHHELD
It was then that Siamese Of
Hcials were reported to have mott
fled this country that they would
have nothing to do with proposed
reciprocal trade agreements, and
that they would not assign titles
to the tin reserves until her ma
tionals were afforded equal treat
ment" in the United States.
Senator Pittman CD of Nevada,
chairman of the Foreign Relations
Committee, intimated that he
would refer the problem right
back to the State Department.
