PAPER MAKERS PROTEST.
Want President to Oppose Foreign
Demands for Relief From Duty.

American pulp and print paper makers
are bringing strong pressure to bear upon
the President 20 induce him to refuse to
yield to the demand Of certain European
governments for the free admission Of
their pulp and print paper on terms Of
equality with the Canadian product. The
disposition of the administration has been
to let that matter be determined by the
courts, but as that involves long delay
the diplomatic protestants are by no
means satisfied and are adopting meas
ures to show their resentment.
Three weeks ago Count Bernstorff. the
German ambassador here, Informed the
State Department officials that Germany
would not accord to American exporters
the reduced duties on tool steel and hard
rubber accorded to Swedish and japanese
exporters, under their special treaties, be-
cause the United States did not admit
German wood pulp and print paper free
of duty.
The ambassador was reminded that
the German exporters would not suf-
fer by the delay If their claim was
ju t, because they had paid the duties
test, which gave them the right to re-
cover in case the Court OF Customs
Appeals should decide In their favor
as is rather expected. For the~momen'
it was thought that that explanation
was sufficient, but 1t now appears that
the ambassadors statement is to be re-
garded as, renewed protest against
the failure Of the administration to ad-
just this matter automatically in
stead of judicially.
In view of the peculiar conditions under
which Canadian pulp and paper got upon
the free list In spite Of the failure Of the
reciprocity measure, some consideration
Is being given to the propriety of leaving
