new TARIFF BILL
70 PAVE WAY FOR
TRADE EXPANSION
Would Allow Five Per Gent Re-
bate On All Goods Brought
y to Port In American
Owned Vessels.

Washington, April S.--Attempts to
widen the foreign market for American
goods, and to encourage reciprocity
treaties with all foreign nations Is en-
bodied in the new tariff bin introduced
today, in a. clause empowering the
president to grant fayors to any nation
that gives concessions to the United
States. ."..a ...
The reciprocity clause takes the place
of the penalty clause OF the present
tariff law. The clause designed TO open
wider the markets for American ex-
ports throughout the world is as fol-
lows:
"That for the purpose Of readjusting
the present duties on imports Into the
United States n at the same time to
encourage the export trade of this
country, the president of the United
States il empowered to negotiate
treaty agreements with foreign nations
wherein mutual concessions are made
looking toward freer trade. relations
and further reciprocal expansion OF
trade and commerce"
Underwood's Statement.
Such reciprocity agreements under
the new law would have to be APP
proved by congress before becoming
effective. In q statement accompany
ing h bill, Chairman Underwood de-
clared that under the Payne law, the
United States had attempted to ex-
pand our mme by force"
I'VE went to the nations Of the world
with the demand that they stand and
deliver or WI would punish Them" he
said. Many years ago this system Of
expanding u and commerce was
abandoned by the enlightened nations.
The only true course that can be pur-
sued to expand u foreign trade along
rational lines Is through mutual con
ceSSions that MAY prove beneficial to
both of the contracting parties, free
from coercion"
q Another concession which will be
made in the new bill is designed to en-
courage American shipping. A conces-
sion OF Ave per cent would be made
all tariff rates on, goods brought to this
country by American built ships,
owned wholly by American citizens.
Restrictions on Philippine imports
practically are removed by the new
bill and important changes in the
method OF enforcing customs were also
provided following out the recommen-
dations made after frequent investiga-
lions by the customs service.
