Berlin, Jan. 18.— The American
Chamber of Commerce of Berlin con­
siders that the moment is favorable for
a movement loking toward a reciprocity
treaty between the United States and
Germany, ¡fend especially so because the
new system of reciprocity treaties Ger­
many has concluded most probably will
affect American trade adversely.
The
Chamber of Commerce sent a petition
to President Roosevelt, which in part
follows :
“ The American Chamber of Com­
merce of Berlin, organized with the
purpose of furthering good relations
between the United States and Ger­
many, especially in the direction of
commercial affairs, and including
among its memliers of leading concerns
of both nationalities trading between
the two countries, pray that you urge
upon congress and other authorities
the pressing need of prompt action for
a reciprocity treaty with Germany and
also of hew laws and regulations for
the appraisal of merchandise, to replace
the present very faulty and often un-
iust system which has been and still
is constantly causing much bitterness
of feeling among practically all the im­
porters of commodities into ports of
the United States.”
The American Chamber of Commerce
offers its services in the collection of
information.
