MEMORY OF MYERS.
International Railway Congress
Pays Tribute to Late Presi-
dent Of r., T. and p.
SECRETARY SHAW SPEAKS.
Defines international Commercial
Policy Of the United
States.
fRv Associated press.l

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 13.-The
seventh session OF the international Rail-
way Congress ended here to-day It's
eighth session will BIO held In Berne
Switzerland, i've years hence.
In the evening the permanent commits
sion of the congress rendered banquet
at the New Willard Hotel to the Rail-
way Guild and the officers Of the con-
gress, at which Secretaries Shaw and
Taft were present.
Secretary Shaw spoke rs follows: 1T
may not be out of place In this connec-
tion to define briefly the international! COM
merclal policy of the United States. What
/ shall say in this regard relates to the
past and present, and is in no sense Il
pledge or prediction as to the future.
Tho United States has hcretofo and
now reserved to itself, by means of pro-
tective tariffs, n large measure of the
commerce incident to supplying the needs
and wants OF Its eighty million people.
That which 1t yields to others 1t yields,
with few and uniinportant exceptions to
al on equal terms, and gives no prefer
ences to any country or to any people
The few carefully guarded exceptions
only emphasize the policy, and the slight
advantage granted the republic Of Cuba
but evidences mans natural regard for
K his offspring. and does not mark the
Inauguration Of u new policy.
Il hope 1t will not be considered out OF
place to add that the United States is
consistent with itself, In that 1t criticises
no nation for5levyng duties, be they ever
so high. when levied either for purposes
OF protection or for purposes Of revenue,
provided only they arc made to rest no
more severely upon us than upon others.
Tho United States only asks the right to
buy, iii foreign markets on the same terms
as her commercial competitors, and the
right to sell in all markets on terms as
favorable as any
For two or three years past certain
5of our people have expressed fears lest
the United States will be involved in tar
if wars. ! am glad that the record JUS
titles the statement that the United States
has never yet levied retaliatory tariff. |
can therefore assure you, and our own
people as we'll, that the world will never
be involved in tariff wars or retnllatory
legislation so long as the United States
pursues its present policy and other
countries do not discriminate against
those who do not discriminate against
them ...sft
