German Imports.
COLONIES NOT INCLUDED

State Department Will First Investi.
gate the Question Whether Ger
many's Possessions Discriminate
Against Products Of the United
states-same Action to Be Taken
With Respect to Several Other Ma.
tions.
Washington, Feb. 8.-The president
has issued proclamation under the
provisions of the tariff act of Aug. s.,
1909, in which he declared after March
81, 1910, all articles imported into the
United States or any of it's posses
sions, except the Philippine islands
and the islands of Guam and Tituila
from Germany are entitled to be ad
mitted at the minimum rates of duty
prescribed by section 1 of the present
tariff duty.
The proclamation, however, does not
include the German colonial posses.
sions for the reason that the depart
ment of state has not yet had sufficient
time in which to investigate the ques.
ton as to whether such colonies un-
duly discriminate against importations
from the United States. Inasmuch as
the maximum rates Of the United
States do not go into effect until March
81 next ample time will be afforded to
determine that question.
There is reason to believe that be-
fore that date the president will take
action including the German colonies
in the list of countries entitled to the
minimum rates.
The proclamation is identical with
that published some days ago with re-
spect to Italy and several other coun.
tries.
The question of undue discrimination
against American goods is yet to be
determined with respect to a number
of other countries, including France,
Canada, Japan and China and the col.
onial possessions Of several European
countries.
