Farmers to Fight
Chile Trade Pact

Imperial Valley farmers Wednes-
day prepared to fight another re-
ciprocal trade agreement pact as
the government began negotiations
with another South American re-
public, Chile.
Under the proposed trade agree
ment, Chilean fruits and vegetables
would be shipped into the United
States under reduced tariff.
The tariff would reduce returns
to melon growers by 35 per cent
ad valorem, according to B. A. Har-
rgian, county agricultural commiss-
ioner.
Other articles affected by the
trade agreement are onions and
garlic.

What Help Can We Expect?' Finland
Asks Nordic Powers at Conference

STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Oct. 18
UP)-Finland was understood to-
day to have asked the Nordic pow
ers-Sweden, Norway and Denmark
what aid she might expect if she
is forced to defend herself against
aggression.
The question came when the
Kings of Sweden, Norway and Den
mark and the president of Finland
met to work out a common pro-
gram for saving their 100000
people from the war raging off their
coasts, harassing their ships and
endangering their neutrality.
Although the occasion was a
gloomy and dangerous one, thous-
ands of SWedes lined the flag-drap-
ed streets cheering the heads of
four traditionally friendly and neu-
trail governments.
Sweden's 81-year-old King Gus
tav and Crown Prince Gustav Adolf
went to the airport to greet the
president and foreign minister of
Finland, whose position had become
most precarious of all because of
Russias westward movements and

movements clogging railroads and
highways behind the German Sieg-
fried line indicated preparations for
a new NaZi assault, British and
French reserves we're reported
shifted accordingly and allied artil-
lery massed at vital points.
The main line of French resis-
tance was dug almost directly on
the French frontier in the Saar-
Moseile sector. The Germans con-
solidated new positions on a line
from the village of Perl on the
Luxembourg border to Schneeberg
Hill.
In the fighting lines there was
the tension that usually comes just
before a great battle.
French and German patrols were
using all the dark hours to feel
their way through no mans land,
sounding out each others positions
and seeking by a sudden dash on
an outpost to take a prisoner or
two for questioning by intelligence
Officers.
Occasionally patrols would meet,
dispatches from the front said, for
brief, merciless fight with hand
grenades, pistols and trench knives
Or one patrol, hugging the ground
would lie in wait for another ano
ambush it.
The German nigh command as
serted in Berlin that France had
lost additional territory and pris-
oners in German attacks on the
western front yesterday.

Turks Turn Down
Russian Demands
In Blow 10 Nazis
Communist Points Met
With Refusal as New
Diplomacy UnfOlds

LONDON, Oct. 18. (UP)-
The British foreign office
said in an official statement
tonight that Soviet-Turkish
negotiations in Moscow were
terminated because Russian pro-
posals were regarded as inaccept-
able by the Turkish government.
The statement followed diplo-
matte reports that four sensational
last-minute Russian demands caus-
ed the breakdown of the Moscow
negotiations and opened a new
phase in European diplomatic ac-
tivities.
Certain Balkan legations in Lon
don were advised officially today
that Russia presented the follow
ing demands:
l. That a Russian Turkish pact
acknowledge that the Balkans con-
stituted a region of Russian in
fluence.
2. That Turkey close the Dar-
danelles Strait at once to warships
of non-Black sea powers.
3. That the RuSso-Turkish pact
make it clear that the proposed
Russian Turkish mutual assistance
pact was not directed against Bull
garia.
4-That the pact should not
obligate Russia to consult Turkey
in event of any German action
in the Balkans.
Already these Russian reverses are
of greatest Importance in the out
come of the war Germany desper-
ately needs friendly neutral bloc
in central Europe and an unmen-
aced route to the Black sea to get
supplies from Russia. Both are now
uncertain.
