JAPAN COPIES.
j, s. GOODS

NEW YORK, May 9. U.S).
Complaint that Japanese manu-
facturers were copying American
designs and flooding the market
with cheap competing products
was made today by the American
Glassware Association.
A statement issued from the
executive headquarters Of the or
ganization in New York said that
glassware imports from all coun-
tries last year amounted to ST.
1882, based on foreign declared
value.
Japan's amount of the total
was lis per cent compared with
1.O4 per cent of the total Amer
lean imports in 1881.
The Glassware Association said:
"The rapidly increasing share
Of Japan in this trade is bound
to force other producing coun-
tries to lower prices"
Senators and Representatives
are being urged by the associa-
ton to use their influence to
have President Roosevelt raise
duties or declare embargoes on
commodities of foreign origin
that are competing unfairly with
American manufactures.
