THE TRIBUNE FOREIGN NEW S
FRENCH AROUSED
BY TARIFF RULING
Indignant Over Demand That
U. S. Agents Have Access
to Books of Importers.

Paris, Nov. IA storm Of indignation
has been raised by the demand under
Paragraph of the new tariff bill, that
treasury agents OF the United States
be allowed to examine the books Of
French importers. Thus far the Foreign
Office mas refused to the United States
this privilege. Other objections to the
new American tariff seem susceptible OF
adjustment, but II is said that on this
point the French government will not
yield.
The French trade journals declare that
the demand is an insult. 1t assumes,
they say. that the French exporters are
committing frauds. That foreign gov
ernment should ask for its representa-
tives the right TO enter French business
houses and demand TO see the BOOKS as
suming that the firm has committed per-
Jury in declaring invoices before an
American consular officer. is abhorrent to
! French ideas
In this connection the French press
recalls the Limoges affair of 1911. At
that time the United States Treasury
Department sent three agents - inquire
into the cost of producing porcelains.
The American commission was properly
introduced to the French Minister OF
Commerce, at whose request the Limoges
manufacturers opened their books to the
investigators.
Afterward the Foreign Office COM
planned to the United States government
that the treasury agents had violated
the agreement that the information thus
obtained was to be held in strict con-
ddence.
Should a tariff war result from this
situation, IT is pointed out that the
French people would be the losers.
Three-qu1rters OF the imports from
America are raw materials, cotton, cop
per. petroleum. tobacco and hides, which
France must have. while the exports to
America are almost altogether articles OF
taste and luxury. which the Americans
may do without, or for which they can
obtain substitutes from other European
countries.

able"
professor Won Behring, Of Marourg
University, says: The high prices OF
,.dium are not due to difficulty In
ranufacturing. but rather to discov-
.,ine the absence Of competition. A
decrease in price probably will be
,sached when a substitute, perhaps the
X.rays, is found"
Professor Won Czerny, one of Ger
nanv's greatest cancer specialists
.slsgrsphs: "Radium and mesotho-
,um are very expensive. owing to the
commercial activities of those who
,,rnsr the valuable supply. There is
an obvious lack of proportion between
,hs price Of the element and its real
value. The only thing to do is to aug
nsnt the production. Besides, radium
and mesothorium lose 90 per cent OF
heir curative powers in five years.
therefore, specialists should be very
careful in squandering vast amounts.
Professor Veit, Of Halle University
also believes there is too much com
nercialism in connection with radium
and mesothOrium.
