CHAMBER PROTESTS
LIMITING OF FILMS
Recent Tariff Increases by France
Against United States Also
Scored.
Hy the Associated Press.


PARIS, July 29-The American
Chamber of Commerce Thursday pro-
tested against the new French film
decree limiting to 140 the number OF
foreign films with French dialogue
dubbed in" which may be imported
next year. The chamber also pro-
tested against recent tariff increases
which, it declared, appeared to be di-
rected against the United States rather
than against Germany.
Louis Serre, minister OF commerce,
repeated his reply of yesterday to a
delegation of French movie owners, who
also lodged a protest, to the effect that
he would be willing to increase the
quota figure if other ministers agreed.
AS regards tariffs, he said, it was a
misinterpretation to consider the in
crease as directed against the United
States.
NJ Sere indicated that all goods
formerly subject to maximum or inter.
mediary rates in the case of the United
States would have import duties in
creased only in the same proportion as
they were increased for Germany.
A fourfold increase in tariffs on many
American products was applied Monday
by the French ministry of commerce,
presumably to compensate for the de-
cline ii the dollar value.
