Consul General Judd Proposes IL
Thrcnt Of Retaliation.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3O.--Retallation
against the European countries that seek to
destroy American trade is suggested by
United States Consul General NJ. Judd at
Vienna. He says the Austrian glucose pro-
ducers, finding their trust powerless to
meet the rates as asked by Americans, ap-
pealed to their government and the latter
has increased the duty on imported glucose
from ~ to s forms per 100 kilos to take
effect December l. This is aimed directly at
America, as the United States is the only
country competing for this trade, and will
shut US out from further sale of syrup. Mr..
Judd says 1T has been this way with other
articles for which Americans found for
eign market. If 1t was not a tariff measure
some other obstacles have crippled their ef-
forts TO maintain the trade. Would not
threatened retaiatory measure, say against
porcelain and glassware, have the desired
effect of possibly preventing the intended
change from going into efect?"
