FRANCE REPAIRS HER TARIFF WALL
RAISING THE BARRIER DEPRECIATION OF THE FRANC By Cable. —Press Association. —Copyright PARIS, Saturday. Mr. Bader, a former Trade Commissioner for France in Australia, in an interview said he expected the Senate would ratify the Tariff Bill, under which France would only be protecting herself against countries which have raised a high tariff barrier against French goods. The existing French tariffs were made a long time ago, and were no longer in keeping with the depreciation of the franc.
From his experience of many years as Trade Commissioner in Australia, it seemed to him that Australia treated France more as though she were an enemy than an ally. The Commonwealth representative in Paris, in an interview, said he did not see how it could affect Australia’s trade with France to any important extent. Wool and sheepskins would not be affected. Wheat would be subjected to an advance, but not a drastic one.—A. and N.Z.
