Germany Worried Over American Compe-

The Cologne Gazette, which often
voices the views of the German foreign
office, in the course of leading article
advocating tariff understanding with
Russia in order that they might act
jointly against the United States,
says:
"As matters stand for Europe today
the struggle for existence demand that
the exceptional position of the United
States be abolished. The United States
is most dangerous competitor for
Germany, and especially in iron manu-
facturers and hardware. Germany's
tariff policy must be arranged accord
ingly.
An understanding with Russia
offers ways and means to compel the
United States to adapt itself to Europe's s
tariff system, by which German agri-
culture will by no means suffer disad-
vantage"
