FRENCH ALSO HAVE A KICK

Don't Like Our Proposed Tariff Bill
and Several Other Things.
Paris.-The Underwood tariff bill,
as far as it relates to French industry,
was theoretically condemned during
the monthly meeting OF the National
Association Of Industry and Commerce.
Deputy Gerald says:
THE world has seen how the United
States by its Panama canal act has
violated the Hay-Pauncefote treaty
and how the state OF California has
violated the United States treaty with
Japan. The projected tariff, which
seems intended to subsidixe American
shipping. violates 20 treaties-tho
made by the United States with Spain,
Great Britain, Italy, Austria-Hungary.
Denmark, Belgium, etc.-yet hope
that France and the United States will
be able to arrange practicable agree
ment."
M. Lebon commended the -"judicious
comments" u Deputy Gerald and re-
GREETED that the United States, al
though protesting the desire to live on
good terms with all the world. does
not give any practical proofs Of this

LOST FLOUR TRADE in BRAZIL
That Country Retaliates on Your
Uncle Samuel.

THAT NOuulry netajatee on Youf
Uncle Samuel.
American manufacturers probably
have lost q -four trade amounting to
$3.0oO.oOo q year, as we'll as q lucra-
tive business in cement, typewriters,
machinery and other products as a
result OF the Brazilian government q
resentment at the breaking of the
Brazilian coffee authorization scheme
by the department Of justice.
After several conferences with state
department officials, Brazilian Ambas-
sador Da CANA let it be known
that his country would decline in the
future to extend the 80 per cent diff
ferential in customs dues, which. I'M
til April Q, was allowed on these
American products. Without the diff
ferential, 1t Is said, the American pro
ducers will be unable to compete with
those in Argentine and the Argentine
millers are expected to control the
Brazilian flour market.
Brazil's claim Is that this differen-
tial was allowed with the understand
ing that America was not to impose
any harassing or discriminatory Gus
toms regulations upon her exports to
the United States. The action Of the
department Of justice recently in seiz-
ing 100000 bags of coffee held by the
valorization committee in this country.
and compelling its sale contrary to
the plans OF the committee. is regard
ed as violation Of this understand
ing.
Looking to the future. the Brazilians
are not only planning new valoriza-
ton project. but the committee still is
holding 100000 bags OF coffee in Eu-
rope to market at its pleasure.

TOXIC PAPERS PRAISE PREsl-
DENT WILSON'S ZEAL IN PRE-
SERVING FRIENDSHIP.
THINK THEY WILL RECEIVE JUSTICE
Joint Celebration Of Japs and Ameri-
can Peace Societies Held Sunday
-Over 1000 Japs Present
Are For Peace.

Tokio.-Faith in the American PEG
pie to see that justice is done the Jap
anese is the dominating note in the
discussion of the California alien land
ownership legislation. War talk is de
nOunced as ridiculous and only calcu
lated to embarrass the two govern
ments which are laboring for peace
full settlement by diplomacy.
It is conceded, however, that failure
on the part Of the Americans to re.
spond to the Japanese appeal for q
discontinuance Of the alleged discrim.
ination would be liable to lead to some
estrangement of the peoples. The
Japanese public generally is convinced
that the land bill is a racial and not
an economic measure, and hence q
blow to national pride. antf the people
feel that the world must be taught the
necessity Of equal treatment for the
whites and nonwhites.
Toxic Papers Praise Wilson.
The Toxic papers are loud in their
praise OF President Wilson's zeal in his
endeavors to preserve the traditional
friendship.
The Nichi Nichi is OF the opinion
that the question as to whether the
Washington government can procure
for Japanese equal rights depends on
the strength OF Japanese diplomacy
and urges the government to take q
firm attitude.
A joint celebration Of the Japanese
and American peace societies Sunday
was attended by 1000 Japanese.
Speeches were made by Count Okuma,
former minister Of foreign affairs;
Baron Yoshiro Sakatani. mayor Of To
kio, and Tsunejiro Miyaoka, who was
counsellor Of the Japanese embassy at
Washington in 1906. All the speakers
endeavored to clarity the situation and
decried jingoism.
