LOW TARIFF PRIVILEGE
President Announces Result of
Tariff Negotiations

WASHINGTON, Feb. THE presi-
dent today issued a proclamation un-
der the provisions of the tariff act of
August s. 1909 in which he declared
that from and after March 81. 1910, all
articles imported into the United
States or any of its possessions except
the Philippine islands and the islands
of Guam and Tutuila from Germany
were entitled to be admitted at the
minimum rates of duty prescribed by
section / 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 the maximum rates of
the United States will not go into eff
feet until March 81 next, ample time
will be afforded to determine that
question.
