Ill DIFFICULTIES
MAY ARISE BETWEEN
AMERICA. FRANCE
FRENCH PROPOSALS ON NEW
TARIFF RATE ENTIRELY UN
SATISFACTORY
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19. (^—In
dications are that trade difficulties
[may arise between the United States
and France as a result of communi
cations between the two nations re
garding the new French tariff rates
in which France rejects American
i proposals for trade agreement based
!upon “Most Favored” nations treat
ment and offers in return agreement
{based upon reciprocal concessions
I Secretary Kellogg declared that the
'French proposals of mutual conces
sions is entirely unsatisfactory and
disappointing to the United States.
The United States proposal to France
was based upon a model which that
| nation had already entered into with
j Germany, Great Britain and other
countries known technically as the
“Most Favored Nations Agreement.”
American anxiety concerning French
| trade was aroused by the new
! French trade laws placing fourfold
I tax on American hardware and ma
chinery. French counter proposal to
the United States in which mutual
a
concession agreement is urged, also
carried with it a proviso that United
States imports during the period of
the agreement will be taxed two-fold
instead of four-fold. Such an agree
ment wrould still place American
j traders at a disadvan&ge with Ger
many and other countries. Appar
ently the French idea in offering to
the United States, poor temporary
arrangements is to compell perm i
nent settlement in other affairs.
France in refusing the United Stages
offer declared the United States or
fered nothing in exchange for the
French consideration.
An excellent road has been com
pleted leading to the new Territorial
school in the Mission district.
COME BEFORE LEAGUE
GENEVA, Sept. 19. (/P)—Nicara
guan difficulties with the United
States are expected to come up be
fore the League of Nations when
a South American State refused to
come before the League on the ground
that protection was not afforded in
Nicaraguan disputes with the U. S.
It is considered unlikely however
that the League will attempt to enter
the discussion.
