They pleaded for readjustment of the rates so that they, as Englishmen might be allowed “to live, to work and to pay you what we owe you.” ‘The British representation was made by Arthur Balfour, heading a deputa- tion from the Sheffield: chamber of commerce who pictured. the conse- quences to the business of his home- land should the Fordney steel rates be retained. “We know,” he added, “that the peace of the world depends on you and us. We want to do nothing to disturb, disrupt or destroy that har- mony which has so long existed be- tween our countries. “We ask for not favoritism. We never have dreamed of any retaliatory measures. We contemplate no throat- cutting. All we ask is that we be al- lowed, to live, to-work and to pay you "That we are very, anxious to a ‘we can pay you is in‘trage, in good: ‘That we are ver, very anxious to do. ‘The American valuation basis of levying duties as provided in the Ford- ney bill also was objected to by Mr. Balfour, Such a method of laying Import taxes, he said, would “abso- lutely” cut off many trade connections dangerous to trade. “No customer, howéver oid his busi- NOTICE TO CREDITORS.
