FINANCIAL. TARIFF STIRS UP OPPOSITION ABROAD, == Cooper Says Foreign Busi- ness Men Oppose New U. S. Levies. £ o5 The business men of s=vope are universally dissatisfied and aispleased | with the new American tariff and say they are planning generally to shift, some of their pur- chases from Amer- fcan markets to other places, ac- cording to reports brought back to Washington by William K nowles Cooper of Crane Parris & Co.. who has made an ex- tensive tour of Europe. Mr. Cooper ex- plains that, in his opinion, it will tak» some time to measure the actual ! effect of what the | tariff will do one wm, Knowles Cooper way or another but he found, nevertheless, that Eurc- peans oppose what they think are barriers raised against them | ¢ tariff act here. Mr. Cooper | returnec to Washington yesterday and was at his desk for the first time this | morn While i England Mr. Cooper was | honorea by being elecied vice moderator of the International Council of Congre- gational Churche.. which he attended as an American representativ:. His | principal address was a review of facts | about American prohibition, which | stirred wide comment in the British | press, and brought to him, Mr. Cooper | said, many indications that the swing | throughout Europe, even in Germany. | is toward more temperance. Germans are drinking less beer, he said. But the | British especially, where temperance restrictions are growing, feel that they will not enact a prohibition law similar | to the American Volstead act, unless | and until it can be better entorced than the American law. | Canadian Trade. i Reports of feeling against the Ameri- | can tariff Mr. Cooper gleaned from numerous contacts with Rotary Clubs throughout Europe and in many per- | sonal conversations with business men of the Continent. In Great Britain, he sald, they are opposed to the tariff im- posed against them by the United States, but peculiarly enough. feel that Eelhlps the American tariff wall may elp to throw some of the Canadian trade which they had been losing to the United States back into the channels of trade of the British Empire. Switzerland is peculiarly worried over the American tariff against lace, Mr. | found. In Belgium an internatienally known leader told him, Mr. sald, that the Europeans will try es- | pecially to find some other place than America to buy automobiles. Before the | new tariff, this business leader said, at | least 65 per cent of the automobiles | purchased in Belgium, for instance, came from the United States But America should not expect. this Belgian said, that the world should pay gold for everything sold out of America. The United States, he contendzd, should take materials in trade. And the new higher tariff is keeping out many of these Eu- ropean goods which formerly competed Fiecessrully, he said, in American mar- kets. The city of Brussels, one Belgian estimated. would reduce its American trade 25 per eent. Prance. was reported by Mr. Cooper to be the mOlsvl pros‘mrmfie n,;.tmn S%‘ Europe,” largel attri tal e sal to the Prench habit of thrift. There ‘was less unemployment in France than any other nation visited, he found. but this could probably be accounted for partly by the fact that France is said to have a million men in military training and thus on the pay roll of the government. War Budgets. Pormer Premier Lloyd George of Great Britain was heard by Mr. Cooper 1o say that the war of Europe today were g,“(" than in 1914, and that all of Europe was afraid of war. Lioyd Gearge claimed that the world today had 30,000.000 men under arms. eat Britain and Germany particu- Jarly were found to be struggling with the unemployment problem, with the dole keeping down unrest in Great Britain. Germany, however, Mr. Cooper sald, was on the mend, and in Great Pritain, he said, he found the people better fed, better clothed and healthier than three years ago when he was there, and “immensely better off” than in 1923. Mr. Cooper visited London. Paris, Switzerland, Germany, saw the Passion Play in Bavaria, came down the Rhine River through Germany and to Amsterdam anc to Brussels. Trading on D. C. Exchange.

JAGGER, Associated Press Pinancial Editor NEW YORK, August 13.—The bear| camp, usually populated by a select |grote group of professional operators, began to resemble & public picnicking ground in today's stock market, and several of | the original bears started to withdraw in annoyance, influencing a temporary midday ly share prices, after a further decline during the morning. In the meantime, the confirmed bulls hurled little more tangible in the di- rection of the bears than invective. There was little inclination to fight back with action and cash. The bears were chiefly concerned over the un- wieldy character of their following, re- calling the numerous explosive upturns caused by stampedes of overcrowded shorts in the past. ‘The morning decline carried prices off 1 to 5 points, reducing the general level to close to the bottom of June, The losses were fairly well regained by early afternoon, d several shares showed advances of 1 to more than 3. American Tobacco B, Warner Bros., Johns Man- ville, North American and Houston sold up 2 to 3 points, and shares gaining a point or more included such issues as United States Steel, American Tele- phone, Radio, General Electric and Gen- eral Motors. During the morning, Bethlehem Steel, American Power & Light and J. I Case sagged about 2 points to new 1930 lows, and Kennecott, Childs and Columbia Gas also recorded new bottom prices. A tendency of trading volume to in- crease with a declining market, and to turn dull on advances was a reversal of recent form, and was discouraging to the cause of higher prices. Late Rally. ‘The rally was considerably extended in the afternoon dealings as short covering became more insistent.

J. I Case which with several others had touched new low ground on the morning de- cline, showed a net advance of more than 12 points. The close was strong. Sales approximated 2,400,000 shares.
