German Foreign Office Signals Cautious Openness On Representation
The Foreign Office has shown limited encouragement to the US embassy on a German attitude shift. Baron Von Richthofen offers no firm commitments but favors adequate German representation. St Louis delegates would be welcomed to present requests. German manufacturers show interest in the exhibition. Walter Williams's European tour spurs newspaper coverage. The North German Gazette denies Emperor William urged Prince of Wales to Berlin for royal events, says English reports are false. The Prince visits for one day, not to attend foreign coronations, and declined entertainments to reflect private nature of the visit.

Root Opposes Reciprocity With Philippines Trade Policy
Washington January 11 There is authority for the statement that Secretary Root is strongly opposed to commercial reciprocity between the United States and the Philippines. He argues that such an arrangement would undermine the open door policy in the East and deny other powers the same trade facilities now enjoyed by the United States. A Cabinet officer says the United States could not be treated as equal to Russia France Germany and Britain in the Chinese provinces without granting those countries similar privileges for trade with the Philippines. The position reflects Secretary Root’s views that President Wilson shares.
