INDUSTRIAL AGGRESSION

While the Allies are engaged in the
struggle with German autocracy, the
problem of meeting industrial aggres.
sion after the war also is receiving
attention.
France is debating regulations to
compel registration Of nationality by
manufacturers and trades people, so
that the nation which has borne the
brunt of the German assault may not
unwittingIy send gold to provide funds
for another war, Italy has issued de-
cree recurring declarations of nation
atty Others of the allied countries
are discussing similar measure,
despite opposition in some official
quarters to anything savoring of an
economic war after the war"
German duplicity and intrigue re-
vealed in the last four years have
strengthened fears in European count
ries that Germany may attempt to
market her goods when peace comes
by means of masked exports, giving
the impression that they originated
elsewhere. Official dispatches, quot
ing financial writer's, say that it is to
be expected France for some time
after the war ends will be dependent
upon imports, because the most i'm
portant industrial districts have been
devastated by the invaders and in
order to prevent unwilling buying of
enemy goods, three measures have
been suggested,as follows:
TO establish a personal register.
TO establish trade register.
To demand the national mark put
on all goods imported into France.
With regard to the personal register,
it is the intention to make one for
each community, containing the names
and addresses of all the inhabitants,
their birthplaces and the names of
their parents All storekeepers shall
hang in their shops a sign plainly
stating their nationality. On the basis
of this personal register, trade reg
lister shall be kept, as in Italy, Spain,
Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Switzer-
land. Hungary and Germany.
There is no intention of boycotting
German goods. Economists have point
ed cut that such step would be sense
lees thing to do and the intention in
France is only to control the German
imports and keep them within bounds
SO they will do no harm, To that end,
the French syndicates have suggested
that it be made obligatory for all i'm
ports to bear the national trade mark
OF the country of origin.
Writers in neutral European countries
have pointed OUT that such interna-
ticnal protective system would do
away with all suspicion regarding the
origin of goods, make access to the
big markets easier and protect them
against being monopolized by the more
powerful states.
Germany is not missing any chance
to prepare for business after the war
plans in the making including one of
such tremendous proportions as
canal between the Black Sea and the
Baltic. The Lubbock Chamber of Com
merce has reported that the canal
would shorten the transportation of
petroleum from Batoum to HAMBURG
by 5000 kilometers. new markets for
German goods would be opened and
Russian products could be obtained bv
Germany at much cheaper price
than heretofore

SWEDISH SHIPPING
In Agreement Exempt
from Bunker Regula-
tons

Stockholm. Wednesday. Feb. 2O.-Ira
Nelson Morris, the American minister.
today received from Washington an
nouncement that the new bunker reg
ulations were not applicable to the
hundred thousand tons Of Swedish
shipping included in the proposed
agreement between the two countries.
1t was communicated Immediately to
the Swedish government. as he had
learned hat an attempt to apply the
regulations to the ships in the agree
ment would imperil the negotiation.
The announcement from Washington
saves for American use the 100000 tons
Of shipping. The bunker regulations
aroused the Indignation of Swedish
shipping companies, who c~ontended
that they would enable the United
States to control wen coast
ing trade and compel the cessation OF
long established traffic with Lubbock
and Stettin, Germany.
