CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE.
SECRET CONVERSATIONS. TRADE BARRIERS AND DEBT OBLIGATIONS. ;UKJTJIJ> P2KSS ASSOCIATIOK —BT ZMCTBIC TILIOajLPK—coprsiGBT.; (Received July 10th, 11.30 p.m.) AMSTERDAM, July 10. Possibly the most important part of yesterday's proceedings at the Congress of the International Chambers of Commerce occurred secretly in the form of conversations relating to trade barriers and commercial polieies. It is known that competent experts are gravely apprehensive of the reaction arising from tariff increases, such as that contemplated in the United States, upon the problem of meeting debt obligations. Dr. Opirelli, the president, was most active, and succeeded in inducing members not to raise the issue publicly in the Congress. The special correspondent cf the "Financial News" states: "Expectations are high that something of great importance may emerge before the Congress ends. The Congress debated the need for better industrial, statistics." Australian Press Association.
