"The basis of the . settlement is that Germany grants to the - Uui t- ed States her full convention of tariff rates in return, for' the min- imum tariff of the .United States. This is an exchanire of minimur for minimum;- It places the Unit-ltwo t StP nn-ATirtlv th a- terms as all other countries to which Germany crants coriven- ttonal rates undeV . . her v various commercial conventions or inost - favored:nation ' treaties." . 1 - "In the President's . opinion , the responsibilities devolved " by him by the Payne-Aldrich act -require from ail countries a grant to the United, States of substantially their lowest tarm rates, it is a source of much gratification to the jrresiaeni, inai uermany nnas u possible to tend -to .thc llnited States her: complete Minimum schedule" without . reservation or a f-i r a w-V , . . qualification." -'.
