ABSENT-MINpED ABNER This Shows AUSTRO-GERMAN COMMERCE UNION CALLED A BOGIE French Expert Says Fears of Grave Peril After War Are Unjustifiecl PRECEDENTS ARE CITED By YVES GUYOT ExOltlnlster of Public Works, Wltor lAuence RcofifcmPiuf t Financier. Special fsble to tfce Evrstsa TiirrsiKS. PAH1S, Jan 14.-trnnce Is greatly pre occupied by the project for an Altstro Oertnan commercial union nfter tho war. Many publicists and politicians, who habitually nre haunted by bogles, point to thla as a grnp peril. If they knew ft little mom about tho German Customs Union they would have less fear. The history of that union has been chiefly a history of strife, with the small States balking tho plnns of the larger ones nnd tho larger ones In consequence threaten ing lo withdraw A commercial union between Austria nnd Germany would demand a common pnrllament to be successful, nnd neither wnnts thnt Germsnv would have to un dertake a part of the responsibility for Austrian finance, while It finds Its own finance n sufficient burden. Finally, If the Allies achieve tho deci sive victory which is necessary for a definite peace, the divorce of the German Kmplrc from the Austro-llungarlnn mon archy Is a sine qua noil. A more Important nuostlnn Is what will be tho nttltude of the Allies townrd th'o Germanic Powers after the war. The war will not put nn end. for example, to the conl nnd potn'sli production of Germany. Prance Imported both before the war, and will need them again after the wnr. This is not n question of sympathy, but of business, as is also the question Of the purchase of machinery nnd manufactured goods If that business Is not to go bnck to Germany nfter the war there must bp n commercial union between the Allies com parable to the political union for the purpose of wnr. Hut Premier Tlunclmun, of tho Hoard of Trade, said hi the House of Commons on Monday that It would be Impossible to mnlntnln free trade be tween Hngland and her colonies, nnd If that can't be done It would be still less possible to establish free trade among tho Allies. Nevertheless, thnt Is the only solution, and to this must bo added thn application of tariff pressure to the var ious States comprising Clcrmnn and Aus tria. This Is tho only way to present dumping under protection of customs charges These solutions, howcer, arc much too simple to be ndopled. Tho Minister of Finance proposes to tax war profits by a sliding scale, be ginning with fi per cent, for profits amounting to $7B,000 and 80 per cent, for $500,000 or more.
