viewpoint of the Treasury Depart
part the maximum and minimum
feature of the bill is one of its
most important provisions. By
this provision the government ia

considered that in this way the
interests Of American exporters
will be conserved and promoted.
Another feature of the bill COM

is the paragraph providing an i'm

bill provides that In the absence

and s275.OOO,OOO from internal

the principle of reciprocity to be
carried out practically automati-
cally, is another innovation. 10
