COMMERCIAL WAR ADVISED
The Cologne Gazette Makes a Vie
lent Attack on America.

a Declaration That business Cannot
BE Transacted With the United
States on the Basis Of Justice and
Respect Under Existing Methods.
COLOGNE. May I1-That Europe is
greatly alarmed over the growing com
merciaI activity Of America and the
prospect of the extension of United
States control in many Of the markets
Of the world is becoming more and mcre
apparent The encroachment Of Anleri-
can manufacturers and fnanciers is the
talk of commercial circles here and in
other European centres, and the Co
Iogne Gazette today INDUCES in vio-
lent editorial outbreak against the
Americans.
The text for the remarks Of the Ca
zette" is the alleged threatened com
merciaI war of Europe against America.
which, it indicates. is about to begin in
earnest and be disastrous to the Uni-ei
States
The Gazette complains that with
the present American Government no
business on the basis Of common justice
and mutual respect can be transacted.
The paper declares therefore that all
European efforts should be directed to
making the present Administration give
way to a more righteous mode of
thinking
Continuing in this vein, the "Gazatte'
asserts that many voices are already
heard in American political parties, de-
manding freer commercial relations
with foreign nations in order to cope
with the trusts, and the paper adds that
another cause Of the demand in Amer
lea for a reform in the matter discuss
ed is that the United States greatly
fears the wrath of Europe if the pres
ent policy is continued and Infers that
reprisals are about TO be made on this
side of the water
In con AIsion, the Gazette declares
that no country in Europe should fail
10 appreciate the existing situation and
that the press and the people ought to
at once do all in their power to propa-
gate the idea that American methods
in commercial relations are not to be
tolerated and that steps should be tax
en- TO bring about a policy more bene-
fetal to the business world here.
It is also stated that the Canadian
Government is entirely in sympathy
with Europe in this matter. and there
is an inference that the Dominion Gov
ernment IS ready to cooperate with
Germany and other nations in trying
TO bring about the commercial results
desired

has long puzzled astronomers, and for
constructing an instrument sensitive
enough for the purpose, belongs to Prof
E. F Nichols. Of Dartmouth College. The
