FEAR JAPANESE
IN TRADE WAR
Majority Of Requests fol
Revised Tariff Show
Mpponese Dread.

The majority of requests to the
United States Tariff Commission for
revisions in the tariff to protect
American industries are from manu-
facturers who are threatened by
Japanese competition, it was learned
yesterday.
The latest figures of the Depart
ment of Commerce bear out the COM
plants. for they indicate that Japan
holds the balance Of trade between
the two countries. and has increased
her exports to the United States tre-
mendously in the past four years.
Last year % per cent of our imports
from the Far East came from the
island empire. and this percentage
has increased thus far this year.
An idea of the trade between the
two nations Is shown in the report.
which lists Japan as selling 500, ,sls,
III worth OF merchandise and ma
terials to the United States, whereas
We sold. her S272. $50.

ENGLISH IN POSITION
TO GET GERMAN TRADE

English commercial and trade rela-

of German territory some consider
able time before the United States
will be in position to begin work at
the old stand.
As soon as the treaty of peace is
signed Great Britain will be free
under her system to station her con-
suls and trade and commercial agents
at their accustomed places in Ger
many and Austria and everywhere
else, for that matter. in the lands OF
her late enemies.
The United States is to proceed In
the same way, but the appointments
and beginning of work in Germany
by consuls and agents will be de-
ferred until the treaty has been
signed. ratified by the Senate and the
names of the consuls and related
officials are sent to the Senate and
confirmed. The operation of the Eng
lish system of freedom of action by
the British foreign Office will clearly.
therefore, be in the interest of the

PEACE WILL WRECK
BIG WAR MACHINE

Signing of the peace treaty by Ger
many will see a squirt in the dis
mantling, of the American war ma
chine.
Aside from the increased speed in
demobilization of the army that will
result. many of the war laws and big
war bureaus will pass away auto
matically when President Wilson is
sues his proclamation of peace This
is some weeks off, for the Senate
must ratify the treaty before the
peace-making process is completed
Among the important wartime laws
which will expire when peace Of
ticially comes are: Trading with the
enemy, which authorizes the mail,
cable and telegraph censorship and
the War Trade Board; espionage
act, draft act, food and fuel conserva-
tion acts. which created the food and
fuel administrations; act authorizing
government possession and control or
