ing That After March 81, 1910,
Entitled 10 Minimum Rates.

Washington. Feb. THE president
today issued a proclamation under the
provisions of the tariff act of Aug. 5,
1909, in which he declares that from
and after March 81, 1910. all articles
imported into the United States or any
OF its possessions. excepting the Phil
ippine Islands and the islands of Guam
and Tutuila from Germany are entitled
TO be admitted at the minimum rates
of duty prescribed by Sec. i. OF the
present tariff act.
The proclamation does not include
the German colonial possessions for
the reason that the department of state
has not yet had sufficient time to in
Vestigate the question as to whether
such colonies unduly discriminate
against importations from The United
States. Inasmuch as the minimum
rates OF the United States don't go into
effect until March 81 next ample time
viii be afforded to demand that ques
tion.
The proclamation is identical with
that published some DAYS ago with
