Refused Potash Pact Triggers Berlin Tariff Clash
Berlin rejects US potash export proposal tied to the potash law, risking a broader tariff dispute as American diplomats in Berlin leave for Vienna. The German reply, delivered by Herr Sydow, preserves an uncompromising stance while noting possible future talks in line with the new act. The US ambassador and commercial adviser report contracts dating to 1907 and 1907-1913, warning that the measure taxes production beyond contract value and harms American buyers.
