Non-Dicerlmlnating Commercial Trot

NEW YORK, May 8.—-~ln the con

give its attention to obtaining nonv
discriminating commercial treaties
and tariff arrangements betwecn‘the
United States and foreign nations.
Frank W. Taussig.

in an address yeutcrduy before the Na-

Neither in the past our toduy has
the Unltt-d Stutcs hud "1111 established
policy with rcgurd to its commercial
1't'lutions,”suld Mr. Taussig, reviewing]
the various thrill and mule lt1tgtslatlon .
which has been enacted since 1890, and
the country in this respect may fairly
be said now "to be In 11 helplc'su con-

the speaker continued. "the American
policy must be thutof the open door.
with .lnwrica sucking no special l‘nv-

01's to others. The trade policy should;
be no less idealistic than the internav

In conclusion he said: ;
“To sum up: .111 the trade rivalry
which we may expect after the war.
the United States must rely mainlyl
upon the cli'ectiveness of its industry:

special deviTi'eE or aids, such as rc-

other conntlies: this is the sine nua
non. And on the other hand, we must
not supinely tely upon this so1t of
economic virtue. We must secme .1

tectlreness to secure“ its due return.
“We must not only be in u.-posltlon

we must be to a position to prevent
