Latest Aspects of the Cuban Treaty

January 29, 1903 issue

add to cart   close window

The article comments on the Cuban treaty. The exclusion clause added to the Cuban treaty by the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations provides that no sugar, the product of any other foreign country, shall be admitted by treaty or convention into the U.S. while this convention is in force, at a lower rate of duty than that provided by the tariff act of the U.S. approved July 24, 1897. The Cuban treaty is a tariff bill on a small scale. Perhaps an agreement has been made between the domestic and the Cuban sugar interests to divide the American market for five years to the exclusion of all other producers.
