They contained important tariff concessions and are expected to improve the trade be- tween the two countries. They take the place of the treaty terminated a year ago. Canada gives France the British preference on seven items which in- clude certain books and periodicals, surgical instruments, hospital sup- plies, etc. France also gets a reduc- tion below the intermediate tariff on a large list of articles ranging from 10 'percent. to, in some cases, 25 per cent. In addition to this on an extensive Iist the intermediate tariff is applied. Canada gets the .minimum tariff on wheat. She gets a tariff as low as any other nation on canned salmon: The minimum tariff is also extended to Canadian copper, lead, aluminum, and a large list of manufactured ar- ticles. Particularly, important is the minimum tariff on ' rubber products such as certain tires and a broad list of other lines.
