The government action followed closely upon an address by Premier Tardleu Sunday in which he sald France had decided to keep its economic and financial houde in order with the same energy and determination it has manifested in’ preventing meetings or movements calculated to disturb public tranquillity and national security.

It has been known in banking circles | that as the result of what the Paris| press describes as wild rumors one or | two financial houses have been obliged to seek support, and one institution, called the Vasseur Bank, has been forced temporarily to suspend payments following a run of depositors. | The investigation ordered yesterday will be pursued under an article of the penal code which provides imprisonment of from two months t6 two years, with heavy fines, for persons convicted of de- liberately attempting to manipulate the grlces of stocks ‘and bonds for the erance of their own interests. Solid Securities Affected. - ‘The Bourse recently has been nervous and irregular and often has displayed weakness. This has been ascribed in irt to reaction to the New York Stock change, but the Government ob- served that the movements have af- fected solid French securities without Teasonable justification. This situation will be examined in the application of Premier Tardieu's statement that France must persevere in its resistance to “the economic de- ression from which the world is suf- " and that France’s economic stability is due to the harmony and stability of the French government. Gold Reserve Cited. The premier called attention to a gold reserve of 50,000,000,000 francs and the steady improvement of French rnment stocks in the world market. e said French industry, despite fierce competition, showed an all-around in- crease of 4 per cent, compared with 1928, and that although exports had dropped the decline was far less marked before weeping over ourselves fake s 'VON STEUBEN HONORED AT BERLIN SERVICE American Revolutionary Hero Is Praised Before Notable Company, Including U. 8 Attache.
