GERMAN STEEL MEN COMBINE
Make Up to Exporters the Amount
Lost ny selling their
Products Abroad.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 27.-The iron and
steel makers Of Germany now have a COM
bination behind their backs which will en-
able them to continue with better chances
for ultimate success their stubborn and per
sistent fight in the markets of Europe
South and Central America, Africa and the
east. This fact is brought out in a report
from United States Consul General Frank
Mason at Berlin, dated August /, which was
made public at the State department today.
The consul general reports that after a full
discussion Of the unsatisfactory condition
of the home market Representatives of the
coal and iron Industries OF Germany assem-
bled at Cologne, decided upon return to
the system Of export bounties which was
used to such good effect In the early years
OF the German industrial expansion. There
upon union was formed between the coal
and iron interests to provide export boun-
ties among all the leading syndicates in
the metal and mining industries. This vast
and powerful export association, says MIR.
Mason, is based upon an agreement that its
members shall contribute to pay to such
members as export their products a bonus
equal to the difference between the current
prices OF the merchandise In the German
markets and the price actually obtained for
1t abroad. The bounties to be paid on ex-
ported metals are calculated upon the
amounts Of raw materials consumed in their
production.
The consul general says that the mid
summer outlook for the German metal and
mining industries is motifs reassuring as
had been confidently hoped for since the
beginning Of the year. u Is nevertheless
true, says Mr.. Mason that the exports of
iron and steel are enormous and steadily in
creasing. During the first half Of the pres
ent year the figures reached 1,502, ,742 tons,
as compared with 994. .4O4 tons for the same
period of last year. The increase in the
aggregate values Of these exports was only
from s57,143,SoO to O,s52 600. This compar-
ison between the bulk Of product and the
bulk Of money, says Mr.. Mason, makes the
vital fact OF the situation apparent, that a
large part of the vast amount of exports
has been marketed abroad rather on the
basis of a clearing out sale. in which the
goods were offered at whatever sacrifice
might be necessary to secure their sale.
