EDGE ATTEMPTS
TO CALM FRENCH
Tariff Would Add Only 1886
Per Cent, Under 1923
Figures, He Asserts.
~ the Associated Press.

Nv the Associated Press.
PARIS, June 9.-Ambassador wal
ter E. Edge introduced today what
was intended as calming note into the
discussion of the new American tariff
schedule.
A communique issued at the en-
bassy said the new rates, if applied to
the French exports to the United
States iii 1928. would have added only
about 335 per cent to the total duty
and added that 1.-The revised American
tariff signed yesterday by President
Hoover can have no serious effect upon
French exports to the United States"
The statement said the figure 335
applied to more than 80 per cent of the
total value of French sales for 1923,
and continued:
ION the other per cent of sales
figures are not comparable because of
changes in classification or for other
technical reasons.
LAS is well known. by far the
greater part of American purchases of
French products is of quality COM
modities 1t would be indeed a very
small percentage of American buyers
who would desist from purchasing ex-
elusive French designs because of
small possible increase of cost.
In fact, the negligible increase
could be readily absorbed in the profits
of the distributor.
In considering tariff changes, it
must be admitted that almost every
nation in the world today is operating
under the protective system, and the
tendency everywhere has been up
ward. However. in this tariff revision
the American Congress has taken the
opportunity to include changes in adj
ministratiye regulations that have in
the past proven irritating and objec-
tional.
IAN outstanding feature of the new
act is the authority given the Presi-
dent to reOrganize the Tariff Commits
sion in order that scientific and expe-
ditious investigations as to the justifi-
cation of rates can be Immediately un-
dertaken.
Under this provision, the Tariff
Commission is charged with the re-
sponsibility of obtaining facts as to
production costs at home and abroad
and, together with the commission, the
President is given authority to lower or
raise to a maximum of so per cent any
rate in the act that proves to be un-
fair or unjust"

Beaumont British Picture Corpora

BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, June 19.-Lord Lee of
Fareham gave fiat denial last night to
the report that the Beaumont British
Picture Corporation had passed into the
hands of the Fox Film Corporation
of America.
The statement is sufficiently dis
proved by the fact that the Metropolis
& Bradford Trust Co., Ltd, of which
am the permanent chairman, owns
in its own right over 100000 of the
100000 ordinary shares of the Geau-
mont British Picture Corporation, and
thus holds control by a substantial
voting majority. Moreover. the con-
stitution of the Metropolis & Bradford
Trust and my appointment as it's chair
man were specifically designed to in
sure and preserve British control. There
is no intention of surrendering this
control to any foreign interests"

indications here that industry upholds
the governments contemplated meas

for such steps not only against the
tariff, but against what it calls abusive
maintenance of special agents and spies.
According to a Liege paper, collective

R0UGHAGE IS
 ESSENTIAL IN
 REDUCING DIETS
Kellogg's ALL-BRAN Is Ideal
 Roughage

If you are following a reducing diet, it is doubly important that you take regular amount of roughage into the system daily. Most reduc- ing diets do not contain sufficient amount of roughage. The result is constipation-thief of both health and beauty.
 Kellogg's ALL-BRAN is recom- mended by many doctors and die titians because it contains the bulk necessary to insure proper ellmlna- tion.
 Also, because it contains the iron needed to help prevent anemia- another danger in reducing diets.
 ALL-BRAN is not fattening. Its bulk sweeps the system clean of poisonous wastes-helping to pro- mote glorious health and beauty.
 A popular way to eat kellogg'5 ALL-BRAN is soaked in fruit juice. Try it. It is delicious with milk or cream. Sprinkle it over cereals, salads and soups. It adds flavor to cooked foods and is equally effec- tive. Your grocer has Kellogg's ALL-BRAN. It is served in restau- rants, hotels and dining-cars. Made by Kellogg in Battle Greek.
