RECIPROCITY IS DEMANDED FOR TREATY BASIS France Will Modify Tariff Schedule If U. S. Sends Favorable Reply | | Washington, Sept. 15.—(AP)— Rejection of French proposals for commercial treaty negotiations with the United States on a basis of reciprocity was foreshadowed in an authorized statement at the state department today, that the = Washington —_ government . could not under existing law Negotiate on th basis. The statement was le in advance of receipt of any report from the embassy in Parix on the reply tcday by the French foreign Office to the request that treaty negotiations be undertaken on a Most favored nation basis, Paris, Sept. 15.—()—France asks the United States for reciprocity in the complete sense of the word as the only acceptable basis for a tariff treaty between the two countries. In note replying to American representations concerning the new French tariff schedule, the French foreign office today set forth the ‘French conception of reciprocity as ntering upon fruit- ful negotiation of a tariff treaty. Nothing less than the presedt high rates in force are offered until the Anie n reply to this note shall be !reqeived. When a reply from .the United. States is received that the ‘American government is ready to ibegin such discussions, then the French government will substitute for the present scale a modified schedule, giving American goods con- siderably lower rates, but not up to the limit of those granted to coun- tries with which France has commer- cial treaties, notably Germany. So far as known, Germany was not specially mentioned, but that was the effect of this paragraph of the French reply. ~ The impression in both French and American circles was that the note was simply the first step in open- ing what are likely.to be prolonged treaty negotiations. In the ministry of commerve the feeling avparently was geheral that such an agreement could not be concluded in less than ;three or four months. ‘ ; ‘The note was not made public but was intmediately cabled to Washing- ton.

MISS DUNCAN, FORMER STAGE IDOL, KILLED While Motoriry, Scarf Be- comes Entangled in Wheel, Jerking Dancer From Seat Nice, France, Sept, 15.—(/P)-—Isa- dora Duncan’s adventurous life has ended in tragedy. A silken scarf of red--the color of which she was fond, and which seems to hav symbolized her radicalism fluttered about the neck of the dancer as she sped along the prome- nade Des Anglais last night in her ner car. With her were a French chauffeur, who was going to teach her to drive, and Mrs. Mary Desto Perks, British newspaper woman, who was helping her prepare her memoirs for publication. The end of the long scarf whipped sa over the side of the car, became en- tangled in the front wheel and jerked the dancer from her seat. The chauf- four jammed on the brakes and he and Mrs. Perks disengaged the scarf the limp body. They drove frantically to the St. Roch hospital, but in vain. Doctors said death must have been instantancous. Her neck was broken. At one time a stage idol, Miss Dun- can had long devoted herself to train- ing young dancers. Her affairs did Not appear to prosper and her } studio had to be sold to pay debte. Of late she had given much of her time to writing memoirs of her ca. reer, from which she hoped gre things. She seems to have had her premonition of her death as, in talk-! ing with a correspondent of the As- sociated Press on Tuesday, she said “For the first time I am writing for money: now I am frightened that some quick accident might happen.” Cafe Proprietors ‘ Held For Murder |: ‘SPORTSMEN TO TAKE TO FIELD FRIDAY AS HUNTING SEASON OPENS IN STATE ; the game boi C.

Lowden of Illinois was made today by Senator Nye of that stafe. Although he personally favored Senator Norris of Nebraska for the nomination, Senator Nye said he be- lieved Mr. Lowden stood a much bet- ter chance in the convention and said he was ready to go with hig state for the Illinois man. The visit of President Coolidge to South Dakota had Jittle or no polit- ical effect in its neighbor state of North Dakota, Mr. Nye declared. Although he hoped for a coalition in the senate between Democratic and Republican progrecsives, Senator Nye said that he did not discuss that. subject with any other senate pro- gressives and so far as he knew no actual movement was on foot looking toward such a joining of forces. He declared the time was opportune, however, for organization of a group which would stand together for Muscle Shoals, farm relief and Boulder Canyon dam legislation, He believed it would be possible by such @ movement to pass a farm relief bill similar to the McNary-Haugen esident measure over the veto of Coolidge.
