The Situation May Demand Restriction
= "v OF Her Imports. a
-, Our rela iolS with Tie states of the Ger
man npire are in some respects typical
of a condition of things elsewhere found
in countries whose productions and trade
are similar to our own. The close rival
ries of competing industries; the infiu-
ence of the delusive doctrine that the ms
ternal developme IT of a nation is promot-
I ed and its wealth increased by policy
which in undertaking to reserve its home
markets for the exclusive use of it's own
producers necessarily obstructs their sales
in oreign markets and prevents free q =
cess to the products of t ne wOr d. The
exports affected are largely American cat
tie and other food products. the r ason as.
signed for unfavorable Discrimination
being that their consumption is deleteri-
GUS to the public health. Nor or these
difficulties confined to our food products
designed for expectation. Our great ln-
surance companies, for example, having
built up large business abroad and in
vested large share of their gains In
foreign countries in compliance with the
local laws and regulations, thea exist
ing, now fiud themselves within narrow
ing circle of oaerous aud unforeseen condi-
tions and ar. confronted by the necessity
of retirement from field thus made un-
profitable, if, indeed, they are not sum
mari, expelled. as some of them have

Congress May Have to Take Action.
1t is not to be forgotten that interna-
tional trade mot be one-sided. Its cur-
rents are alternating and its movements
should he honestly reciprocal" these
c ,nsiderations should not, however. con-
strain us to submit to unfair discrimina-
ton Nor to silently acqies;e in vexatious
hindrances to the enjoy nent of our share
of the leg innate advantages of proper
trade relati ,nS f@
y. If an examination of the situation sug-
gests such mes-ures on our part as would
involve restrictions similar to these from
which we suffered the way to such a
course is easy. 1t should, however, by
no mean be lightly entered upon since
thenecessity forthe inauguration for such
a policy would be regretted by the be t
sen iment of our people, and because it
naturally and logically might lead to con
sequences of the gravest character. &5$

The customary cordial relations be-

undisturbed with the exception that a full
explanation of the treatment of John L.
Waller by the expeditionary military au
thorities of France still remains to be
given. Mr.. Waller, formerly United
States consul at Tamatave, remained in
Madagascar after his term of Office had
expired and was apparently successful in
procuring business concessions from the
the Hovas, of greater or less value. After
the occupation of Tamatave and the

water, the Directors of the Annapolis water
Company have, within the past year. greatly
enlarged and improved the plant of the Com

the hitherto unpaved reservoir. the enlarge
ment comprises the erection of new pump
with a daily capacity of one and a half million
gallons, and the laying of a new supply
pipe from the reservoirs TO Church Gre @,
having diameter of IL inches; so that the
delivery capacity at the latter point has been
increased from one million TO three million
gallons daily. In addition to these better
ments contracts are now being prepared for
the construction of an impounding dam at
the pumping station which will have storage
capacity of about twenty million gallons,
Necessarily these improvements have in
NOlyed the expenditure of a large sum or
money. aggregating about forty IKE thorS-
and dollars, In0rder 10 meet this outlay iiss
