START GERMAN
 TRADE WAR ON US.
By w. H. ATKINS (IntsrnatienaI NsWs oePvicsl

tiAteFnAtloAdI i>S0S AS''iSVS
 Washington. German trade kings are gambling their national finan- cial security away in order to re- trieve lost commercial ground in other foreign fields. This is evi- denced by latest reports from Der lin to Secretary of Commerce Hoo yer. Utter disregard of price cut ting and other German tactics, as that course may affect internal fiscal affairs, is revealed by these dispatches from American trade ob- servers in Central Europe.
 Significant of the trend in Ger many is the fact that German busi- ness failures and Bankruptcies are increasing. The number of busi- ness concerns that failed this year were increased fourfold. as compared with last year.
 Germany continues, upon an even larger scale than was in evidence earlier this year, the price cutting war, aided greatly by the. govern ment subsidies to industry of all kinds. Germans are, making a ter rifle trade drive into all parts of the world This push of German traders, aimed 10 uproot competi- tion everywhere, is going on with success, even without the aid of the big merchant fleets owned by Ger many before the war.
 Foreign countries are buying heavily from Germany and ignoring the goods of American and other producers, because the German quo- tations are so low that bidding against them is impossible. Reports recently showed that millions of dollars worth of American goods are piled up on the piers of South American ports. tied up because of cancellations of contracts covering them, while German goods of all kinds are flooding into those trade fields
 Cheap German money is a big German goods. South American and other countries having appreciated currency can buy at much lower figures from German manufacturers and, besides, have distinct advan- tage in the low exchange value of the German mark. Germany, aided by labor at low wages, government subsidies and goods put out at rela- lively low overhead costs, is able to intensity this trade war against America, and government officials are alarmed over it's effects and the need for American protective meas ures.

ARMY TO ABANDON
 IMPORTANT POSTS

Washington, July 6.--Plans for reducing the enlisted strength of the army from 223,000 men to 150.- 900 by October 1, as directed by congress, will be presented to Secre- tary Weeds within few days. Ii became known yesterday that it will be necessary to abandon several military posts. including in each to reduce the commands at others.
 One of the most important com mands to suffer reduction will be that on the Mexican border, it was said An informal report in circula- tion yesterday said it was proposed to abandon practically all the coast artillery posts i'll the South, with the exception of that at Key West and few others at important points.
 Reports from corps area and divi- sion commanders received at the de partment indicate that the men are taking advantage of the other per hitting them to obtain discharges upon application without torfeiting right to travel allowances. The order was restricted to those on duty within the continental United States and will not affect the strength of the Army of Occupation in Ger many or forces in the territorial possessions.
 Recent reports to the department showed 223.000 enlisted men on June 10, and it is estimated that 5000 have been discharged since that date. All corps and divisional com manders were asked yesterday to submit reports on their enlisted personnel on July 10 and every 10 days thereafter until August
 Final decision will be left to Secretary Weeks as to what posts are to he abandoned. Major General Harbord will present the complete plans upon which the General Staff now is working. and it is expected the report will be ready by the end of the week.

Harding to Summon Congress to
Deal With Taxation and
Tariff Questions.
DATE REVEALED BY FORDNEY
Emergency Tariff Bill Reported-Ten
Amendments, Broadening Measure
to include PRACTICALLY All
Farm Products, Added.

Washington, Jan. 1S.-Congress will
he called into special session April 4.
according TO information given mem
bers of the house WAYS and means
committee by Chairman Fordney on his
return from Marion, where he con-
ferred with President-elect Harding,
Mr.. Fordney discussed with the
presdent-elect general taxation and
tariff questions, which will be among
the more important subjects to come
before the special session of the new
congress.
The chairman has understood TO
have told Mr.. Harding the date of the
session had a direct bearing on the
tariff revision hearings, which the COM
mittee is now conducting, and it was
said that Mr.. Harding informed him
that April 4 practically had been de-
cided upon.
Tariff Bill Reported.
Carrying amendments which many
proponents believed spell its doom in
the senate, the Fordney emergency tar
if bill was reported out by the SEN
ate finance committee.
Supported by agricultural interests
during the week of hearings on the
bill, as affording vital protection to
farm products, the measure on the
other hand was strongly attacked by
Others as an instrument for maintain
ing abnormal price levels.
Ten amendments, broadening the
measure TO include practically all farm
products, instead of the limited num-
Der approved by the house, had been
added to the bill by the committee and
opponents had served notice that an
attempt would be made to load on more
when the measure reached the senate
floor.
Foes Continue Fight.
Several senators who opposed the
bill in committee were understood to be
prepared to repeat their attempt, un-
successful i'm committee, to add such
extraneous legislation as the bill to re-
codify the federal laws and the sol
diers' bonus bill. The determined and
apparently growing opposition to the
measure in the senate promised a long
struggle with hours of debate before
final action.
