A new tariff barrier for the American

the Belgian government the Commerce
Department said tciay 1t had been In
formed by Ambassador Hugh s. Gibson.
Gibson reported that Belgium pro-
posed to place the new duties into ef-
feet on January IS, although repre-
SentativeS of the automobile trade
have been granted two weeks to pre-
sent arguments to the government re-
garding the amounts Of the proposed
increases on the various classes of mo-
tor vehicles and parts.
The new proposals, which Is one case
amounts to $50 per cent, are especially
significant to this country's industry
because Belgium is regarded as the
leading European outlet for American
automotive products at the present
time.
Much for Re-Export.
A large portion of the shipments to
that country. however, IS intended for
re-eXport, which at the present time
enters Belgium duty free. The depart
ment said it has not been advised

In 1881 this country shipped 1896
passenger cars and trucks to Belgium
for consumption in that country, ac-
cording to official Belgium figures
This shipment was valued at 2,520,000
Replacement parts, also subject to
duty, would increase these figures, but

Automotive products shipped to Bel
GUM and assembled for re-export dur
ing 1881, amounted to 1909 vehicles,
valued at Sl5,240,000, according to
that countrys official figures.
American automobiles assembled in
Belgium are distributed throughout
Europe. Certain American firms have
large assembly plants in Brussels and
Antwerp and other American firms
either assemble or receive stocks from
their home factories in bonded ware

And don't forget that scarfs play
very important role In the new ensem-

Many of the new coats show two-one
