S. E. C. Investigation
Of Reich Finances
Ends Abruptly
Allows Germany to
Drop Plan to Issue
$73,000,000 Bonds
By the Associated Press.
Investigation by the Securities and
Exchange Commission of the finan
ces of the German government ter
minated abruptly yesterday.
Public hearings, scheduled to be
resumed today, were canceled when
the S. E. C. announced it had “con
sented” to allow the German gov
ernment to withdraw its registration
statement covering the intended is
suance of $73,000,000 of bonds.
The commission announced its
decision in a three-sentence state
ment. No explanation of the action
was given, and commission officials
declined comment.
On August 3 an investigation was
ordered by the S. E. C. to determine
whether the Conversion Credit Of
fice, an agency of the German gov
ernment, should be allowed to issue
the bonds. The commission charged
the Reich had failed to submit ade
quate information on its debt posi
Finn 2nrl ntKor Annnninl n._
j quired to be submitted under the
! Securities Act.
The German Embassy said in a
statement that the demands for
j information were such that “no
sovereign government could submit
to them.”
German corporations, cities and
other political units owe interest
, payments to holders of their se
> curities in the United States. Under
German law, no cash may be sent
out of the Reich to meet such obliga
tions.
The units which owe the interest
pay the funds to the German “con
t version office” and the latter, in
turn, had proposed to offer American
bondholders 50-year, 3 per cent
bonds instead of cash. The proposed
I bond issued totaled $73,000,000.
When the hearings opened Mon
day, the German government asked
to be allowed to withdraw the
registration statement covering the
issue.

Moujiks' Marches With Reds
Are Bitter Memory to Count
By th* Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 21.—Report!
that moujiks, or peasants, of Poland
are marching side by' side and
fraternizing with invading Russian
armies recalled today the important
role they played in the last Russian
Polish war.
It was a bitter recollection tc
Count Anthony Potocki, nephew ot
the late Poreign Minister Maurice
Zamoyski of Poland and cousin ol
that country’s present Ambassadoi
to the United States, Jerzy Potocki.
The dapper count "Tony,” now an
American citizen, escaped with hia
wife, the former Gloria Griffiths ol
Chicago, on the last train leaving
westward from Poland before the
outbreak of the present war.
"During our fight with the
Bolshevists from 1919 to 1921 the
moujiks were burning and looting
behind our lines,” said the count, a
dashing officer in his ’teens in that
conflict. Not yet 20 when dis
charged from service, he was shell
shocked and wounded three timea
fighting the Russians.
Official spokesmen of England
and Prance, Germany and Russia
and even the defeated Poles, have
expressed concern over the fate that
will befall these peasant minorities—
the 16,000,000 Ukrainians, White
Russians and Ruthenians who com
prised half of Poland's population
Each side in the war would save
them from the domination of na
tions on the other side.
“The moujik is always a moujik—
he is a natural-born thief because
he never owned anything and sees
nothing wrong in stealing,” he said
"Those people had to be ruled by a
firm hand, but it is not true that the
Polish rulers denied them jobs and
prevented them from having their
own schools and newspapers ex
cept where they were used for trea
sonable purposes.”
The moujiks, he said, were taught
to hate the Polish landowners be
cause the ruling class was Roman
Catholic. The peasants are of the
Greek Orthodox faith.
“While I was fighting at the front
m me war with the bolshevlsts,” he
said, “they burned my family’s es
tates to the ground and wrecked the
beet sugar and other factories be
hind the lines,”
As late as 1930 there was a re
newal of this revolt in Southeast
Poland, during the Ukrainian up
rising. Hundreds of Polish buildings
were burned, post offices robbed and
Polish officials assassinated.
The Poles were pictured by the
count as the defenders of civiliza
tion in this section of Europe. For
centuries, he said, the Ukraine—
partly in Russia and partly in Po
land since the World War—was “a
no-man's land.”
"They were called ‘the wild fields,’
and there the Poles fought off Tar
tars, Turks and Russians until It
was taken by the Russians in the
late 18th century.”
None of the families of the Polish
“magnates,” as he called the ruleri
of that time, survive today, the
count said.
Three weeks ago the count and
his wife were living peacefully or
the estate of another cousin, s
Polish prince, along the nor then
Polish-Russlan border. This estate
he said, was reduced by losses t»
Russia and Lithuania “from 600,001
acres to only 250,000.”
The count is worried over the fab
of many relatives including tw<
brothers. Thomas and Clement, on
serving in the Polish motorized cav
l airy and the other in the lancers,
, and their aunt, the 92-year-old
» Princess Loubormirska, mother of
I the first Polish Minister to America,
Prince Casimir Loubomirski.
! “I warned her to leave her home,
) the Blue Palace in Warsaw, which
s was near the war ministry,” he said,
- “but I have had no word from her.”
