FREE ENTRY OF WOOD
 PULP AND PRINT PAPER. Products from New Brunswick Escape Duty Until Next August.

Washington, Sept. 26.-Practically ali the wood pulp and print paper pro- duced in New Brunswick until Aug. l, 1912, will enter the United States free of duty. This is made possible by a revised rule made today by Acting Secretary of the Treasury Curtis under the only operative clause of the Canadian reciprocity agreement.
 The surveyor general of customs of New Brunswick advised the treasury department that the new law of that province restricting the eXportation of wood pulp and print paper did not ap- ply to lands operated under licenses issued or renewed prior to oct. l, on which date the act becomes effective. The lands are used under long term laws, governed by yearly licenses and Aug is the date for renewing these licenses. Consequently until that time there will be no American import tax on pulp wood or print paper orlglnat- ing from those lands.
