MAY Be TARIFF WAR;
Issues Debated by United
States and Germany.
DUTIES ON APPROPRIATIONS
Split Peas, Rye Flour and Pulp in
Controversy-Reopening of Ger
man Embassy Announced.

With the return of the German ambas-
sador, Count Won Bernstorff, to Washing
ton, and following his first official call a
the State Department today, the impor-
lance becomes evident of an amicable
settlement between the United Sta es and
Germany of the question of whether or
not the Treasury Department shall i'm
pose countervailing duties on split peas
and rye -four imported from Germany on
he ground that their expectation is aided
by a bounty.
If the Treasury Dep artment insists on
imposing this duty, and 1t is expected
that it probably will, the German gov
eminent is expected to select some Ameri
can commodity about equal in trading
value to the split peas and rye -four as
subject for the imposition of the maxi
mum tariff rate in Germany so that
there is possibility of a tariff war be-
tween the two countries, unless the ques-
ton can be adjusted. Germany main
ia MS that the peas and rye -four under
discussion are not bounty aided, mas
much as they are imported to Germany
from Russia for the purpose of being, IN
the case of peas. split and hulled. and in
the case of flour. cleaned.
way out of the difficulty has been
suggested. which is that Germany amend
her customs regulations SO as to remove
the duty now levied on Russian peas and
rye coming into Germany. The 'imposi-
ton of the duty by the Treasury De-
partment will be delayed for thirty days
The German ambassador is also in con-
ference with the State Department as to
the proposed exclusion Of the Standard
Oil Company from the retail trade of Ger
many. and on the subject of the German
demand for the admission. duty free, to
the United States of wood pulp on even
terms with Canadian pulp, although the
latter subject is now in the courts on q
test case. the result of which, of course
will be awaited.
