PUBLICITY FOR TARIFF
TREATIES is PROVIDED
international Customs ConfereAce
Desires to Prevent Secret Dis
ordinations by Policy.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
GENEVA, October 27.-An article
of the proposed international customs
treaty, definitely adopted at yester-
days session of the delegates to the
International Customs Convention.
would oblige signatory states before
putting the treaty into operation to
publish all their customs regulations
and all information dealing with tar
fff schedules. This information
would include prohibitions or restric.
t,ons on importations, and all
charges OF whatever nature, so that
all Interested parties might know
the exact situation existing in all
countries adhering to the treaty.
Delegates to the convention have
alleged that some states, under the
mask of fofmalities OF fuctuatins
nature, have really inflicted what
amounts to a discriminatory tarin.
The article adopted is intended to
stop this practice.
