japanese Break Off
Trade Talks With
Netherlands Indies
Relotions Unchanged
By Failure to Agree,
Statement Says
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BATAVIA, Netherlands Indies,
June 17.-Japan abruptly broke off
economic negotiations with the
Netherlands today, but both govern
ments announced jointly that their
failure to agree on a trade pact
would lead to no change in normal
relations" between them.
A joint commurNque stated that
the long conferences at which Japan
had been seeking larger shipments
o. oil, rubber and tin unfortunately
have come to no satisfactory re-
suit"
Observers interpreted the Japa-
nese action as indicating that Japan
for the present was abandoning
economic penetration of the Indies,
rich in raw materials vital for war.
German efforts to obtain these
commodities through Japan were
considered likewise blocked.
At the eleventh hour, Kenkichi
Yoshizawa, head of the Japanese
delegation, asked the N. E. I. dele
cation to reconsider its reply of
June 6 to previous Japanese pro-
posals.
Japan had termed this reply "un-
satisfactory" 1t rejected a Jap
anese request for bigger amounts of
the strategic raw materials than
previously had been purchased and
refused to accord Japan special
privileges for economic development
Of the N. E. I.
The Dutch governor general re-
fused to reconsider. stating he must
rest on his position of June 6.
Yoshizawa then replied that he had
been instructed to withdraw his
delegation. The joint communioue
followed.
Yoshizawa plans to leave for
Japan June 81.
Representatives of both sides
stressed that the negotiations had
been conducted amicably.

Order
Believed 10 Affect
S2,5OO,OOo,oOO
J. W. PehIe, 32-Yeor-OId
Lawyer, in Charge Of
Seized Foreign Assets
BY IRVING PERLMETER.
Associated Press stan Writer.


John w. Pehle, the Treasury De-
partment's controller for foreign
funds, estimated today that some
$2,500, 900 900 in cash and other as
sets were affected by President
Roosevelt's order freezing" the
holdings of Germany, Italy and
other continental European nations
in the United States.
Previous freezing orders had put
$4, SOC, 900 900 of foreign assets under
his control, making the total of re-
stricted foreign funds here approx
mately $1,000, 900 900. An inventory
is being taken to determine the
exact amount.
Mr.. Pehle was unable to say just
how much Of the new frozen funds
belonged to Germany and Italy, but
other sources indicated that prob
ably most of the $4,000, 900, 900 caught
by last Saturdays order belonged to
Switzerland and other countries.
Dummy" Names Checked.
To ferret out repeatedly large
sums hidden under dummy" names
by the Axis, however, he revealed
that Erwin May, former Treasury
attache in Berlin, has been ap-
pointed to head a special investi-
eating staff.
Mr.. Mays sleuths will operate
mostly in New York. Here in Wash
ington, Mr.. Pehle is building up a
staff of accountants, foreign ex-
change experts and others to scruti-
nize applications for the use OF
frozen funds. The staff now num-
bers ITS and is growing rapidly, al
ready occupying three floors OF the
Raleigh Hotel.
Mr.. Pehle, himself, who has been
literally eating and sleeping with
his $1,000, ,O00, 900 business the last
few days, is a 32-year-old lawyer
from Omaha, Nebr., with salary Of
$1,000 year. His title is assistant
to the Secretary of the Treasury in
charge of the division of foreign
funds"
Works Under Heavy Guard.
Most of the staff slept on cots in
their Offices the first two nights
after President Roosevelt signed the
order last Saturday. They were
busy mostly sending kilograms and
answering long distance telephone
calls to advise bankers of what to
do with European accounts.
Mr.. Pehle doesn't talk much about
his work. It's so secret that he and
his staff burn scratch paper. Scores
of armed guards watch continuously
He is guardian not only of foreign
bank accounts. Other foreign "as-
sets" under his control include
paintings, diamonds and art objects.
Under the freezing system, Mr..
Pehle's 20. K" Is necessary before
q national Of one of the continental
European countries can get even his
own money out of the bank.
He'll probably put the German
Embassy or budget.
