ROBINSON EXPECTS
|DEBT SETTLEMENT
Something Definite Next
Year Likelihood, Declares
Democratic Leader.
y the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Senator Robinson Of Arkansas,
Democratic leader, told the Senate
today that there Is a strong likeli-
hood that in the next year something
substantial may be accomplished look
ing toward q final settlement Of the
war debts"
Robinson spoke after Senator Lewis,
Democrat, Of Illinois, proposed in a
resolution that no reciprocal trade
treaty be made with any nation
which repudiates or refuses to pay"
or adjust its debt to the United States.
He said undischarged and unad-
justed debts exceed $4,000, 900 900,
and with interest and premiums, ap-
proach 5000, ,000, ,000."
Interrupting Lewis, Robinson said
his forecast was based on q turn In
sentiment about the debts issue In
debtor countries.
Opinion In Debtor Countries.
"There is growing public opinion
in some Of the debtor countries" ne
said, which recognizes the unavoid-
able, absolute necessity, for declining
to permit themselves to be perma-
nently committed to policy Of re-
pudiation"
Senator Borah, Republican, of Idaho
asked Robinson if a reduction of the
debts was involved.
mo proposal has been submitted,
Robinson replied. mo plan has been
formulated. My only point is that now
there is the beginning Of a movement
in some of the important debtor coun-
tries which will build up public opin-
ion to work out some plan of final
settlement
81 do not speak for any public au-
thority other than myself
Borah replied there undoubtedly was
movement abroad to obtain recon-
sideration and readjustment of the
debts. He added, 'The whole propo-
sition is based on q reduction of the
present debts"
No Forecast at Present.
ST do not think it would be possible
at this time to forecast what may be
accomplished" Robinson said.
IT would not say would be un-
willing to agree to any reduction. Nor
would I say it was essential to ad-
vance a proposal for a reduction"
He noted again, however, that there
was growing recognition Of the debts
abroad and a desire to sustain ma
tional honor by declining to repu-
date"
"No doubt some countries" Borah
interjected, would like to sustain
their national honor. But I have vet
to see any statement by any official
indicating payment Of the debt as 1t
now stands"

FORTS ON BORDER
ALARM FRENCH
Paris Informed Gen. Franco
Has Trained Heavy Bat
teries on Territory.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, February 19.-France, con-
cerned over her unfortifled Pyrenees
border. moved toward an investigation
today of charges that Spanish insur-
gents, under supervision of German
engineers, had trained strong bat
teries of artillery on French territory.
Refugees from insurgent territory
were said by the Basque government
at Bilbao to have declared Generals
simo Francisco Frances troops were
throwing up strong Notifications along
the Spanish side of the international
line.
Large trenches were being con-
structed, the Basque conmunique as
serted, from Irun eastward to the
French border.
From the top Of Mount San Marcial
at Irun, the Bilbao officials declared
refugees from Guipuzcoa Province re-
ported, artillery implacements were
pointed at France.
Send Troops to Border.
French officials declined to COM
ment pending an inquiry.
Picked troopers were on the march
to the Pyrenees border, however, to
enforce the ban on volunteers which
France has ordered under the inter-
national non-intervention agreement.
The Bilbao authorities, who are al
lied with the Spanish Valencia gov
ernment, charged the Notifications
were erected under the direction Of
German military engineers.
The Communist newspaper LHu-
mantle headlined the communique in
Paris today as Germany installed on
the frontiers of France"
The organ linked the charges with
reports Gen. Franco had reached an
accord with the Reich, placing bis
government in the German-Japanese
anti Communist lineup and pledging
mutual assistance in case of attack by
Frances Soviet ally.
Farmers Built System.
France. bound to Russia by a mu-
tual assistant pact, has been showing
growing concern over the vulnerability
Of her southern border in case the
peninsula civil war altered her ira
ditional friendship with Spain.
The Bilbao communique said the
refugees, many Of whom were from
San Sebastian, declared farmers had
been impressed into the insurgent
service to build the system of fortif-
cations.

By Rubinoff Lawyer at Trial

and all but Rubinoff joined in the
laughter.
Miss Garcia, who testified yesterday
that her new and unidentified husband
"socked" and left her when he heard
about the alleged Rubinoff romance,
belligerently opposed Halprin's efforts
to prove his opening charge that she
was of rather poor moral character.
She was bolstered at one point by
Supreme Court Justice Salvatore Co
tillo, who broke up pickering between
Halprin and her attorney, Bernard
Sander, with the announcement that
he had no intention Of spending "hours
and days" on the trial.
"It's up to you Halprin) to prove
that she is the prostitute you say she
is" the justice commented. 1.-THE
question Is did Rubinoff or did he
not promise to marry her?

MEASURE TO EXTEND
TRADE ACT IS VOTED
Senate Finance Committee Re.
ports Resolution, Rejecting
J Seven Changes.

The Senate Finance Committee re-
ported without amendment today a
resolution to extend the reciprocal
trade act for three years. The present
law expires June IL.
The resolution already has been ap-
proved by the House. Before report
ing it to the Senate floor for debate,
the Finance Committee rejected seven
proposed amendments.
One of them-a proposal by Sen
ator Vandenberg, Republican, Of
Michigan-would have prohibited the
President and State Department from
Incorporating in trade agreements
any restriction on the authority of
Congress to fix internal taxation.
Another Vandenberg amendment
which was defeated would have stip-
ulated that no tariff could be reduced
below an amount necessary to equal
the American cost Of production.
The committee also rejected an
amendment by Senator Capper, Re-
publican, of Kansas, which would
have required Senate ratification of
all trade agreements and would have
terminated the "most-favored-nation"
policy now in effect.

CHARGES RELATED
Witnesses Say Workers in
Flint Plant Gassed,
Beaten and Shot.
BY JOHN C. HENRY.

Violence and intimidation were
charged against General Motors Corp.
by three witnesses appearing before
the Senate Civil Liberties Committee
today.
Workmen were gassed, beaten and
shot in Chevrolet plant No. 8 in
Flint, Mich, by a squad of men led
by Plant Manager Arnold Lenz, it was
testified by James H. Mangold, as a
strike was getting under way on Feb
ruary J.. Plant gates were closed while
this went on, he said, and the at
tackled workers were allowed to escape
only when the gas became so thick the
attackers had to leave.
$4,000 Voted to Inquiry.
The Senate this afternoon voted an
additional $40 900 to finance the civil
liberties inquiry. This action was
taken on recommendation of the Sen
ate Committee on Audit and Control
after request by the La Toilette
committee for $50,000.
In accepting the lower figure Chair
man La Toilette told the Senate he
feared further funds would be neces-
sary, but that the $4,000 sum is ac-
ceptable at the present time.
In a preliminary report the COM
mittee stated that additional funds
should be provided to probe the extent
of privately maintained police and
espionage forces and the activities of
such vigilante groups as the Black
Legion. These manifestations, the
committee said, are among the most
dangerous threats to the civil liberty
of individuals.
