ot Contractors charges Germany j
with perfecting a gigantic system of

It la further charged that the

Belgian contractors declare.
This Incident arose between the
Belgian government and the Belgian
Federation of Contractors, when the
government recently acoepted a Ger

The protest declares It Is a false
policy to consider solely and wholly
the mere question of lowness nf price
and quickness of delivery and makes
a plea for governmental assistance
for strictly national industries, now
suffering from scarcity of foreign
orders, thereby making local busl-
ness afl the more valuable.
By awarding governmental orders
to a foreign cotintry, the protest
points out, Belgium is deprived nf a
valuable source of revenue at a time
when it is badly needed.
