American commissioners has been
without result.
The conferences have been marked
" frankness and friendliness on

ground. The United States tariff law
IS framed with no opportunity for

S the minimum tariff which the
Canadian government regards as the
normal American tariff while the
maximum is looked upon as a special
war measure. The Canadian general
rate is regarded here as correspond
