HOPE FOR ADJUSTMENT
OF POTASH Difference

WASHINGTON, Dec 15.-Since the
return to America from Germany and
Austria of NJ. H. Davis, special agent
of the state department, renewed con-
sideration is being given to complaints
of the American importers of potash
against the attitude of the German gov
eminent in discriminating against them
and in favor of the German syndicate
which controls most of the potash mines
in Germany.
Mr. Davis, after spending several
weeks in Berlin in conference with the
German potash people and foreign of
ficials. was obliged to abandon as I'M
successful his efforts in behalf Of the
American importers. 1t appears. how
ever there is still soma ground for hope
that a diplomatic adjustment of this
complicated question can be reached be-
tween the two governments which will
relieve the present from the necessity
of having to resort to punitive measures
in the shape of application of the maxi
mum tariff duties on German imports
into this country.
This hope is based upon the fact
that the German customs department
has not yet covered into the imperial
treasury the amount of the excess taxes
deposited by the American contractors
under protest.
