We subjoin an extract from that clause oftLe ar,
relating to this subject from which it appears that
the vessels of those powers which do not put British
vessels on a footing with the most favored nations |
cannot be admitted into the Colonies

between the United States and Holland Sweden
and denmark, the flags of those countries are adj |
mItied from their colonies, by the payment of only |
SIX cents tonnage duty, whilst those from the colo
mes OF Great Britain are charged dollar per ton
British vessels not consider ed among those of the
most favored nations 1t consequently follows that
American vessels cannot he admitted into anv of the
British Colonial Possessions without the authority
of an order in Council

OF the British Possession abroad 10 take effect the
9TH January, 1926, says

thereby granted TO foreign ships shall be limited TO
the ships othose Countries which, having Colonial
Possessions, shall grant the like privileges of trad
Ing with those Possessions to British ships or which
not having Colonial Possessions shall place the
Commerce and Navigation Of this country, and of
It's fossessOhs abroad, upon the foong of the mo-
favored nation, unless his Majesty by his order in
Council, shall in any deem it expedient 10
grant the whole or any of such privileges 10 the

tons aforesaid shall not IN all respects be fulfilled
