French Duty Cut on Champagne Under New Franco American Accord
The French government gains a limited duty abatement of 5 percent on champagne and sparkling wine imported to the United States under a Franco American reciprocity pact signed by Secretary Root and Ambassador Jusserand. The arrangement, effective February 1, 1909, operates under the Dingley act section 3 and can be reversed if France raises its import duties. The agreement, not requiring Senate approval, differs from earlier pacts and restores some duties when deemed necessary.
