tax or taxes, imposed on American vessels by the government of the
foreign country in which such port is situated:

cents per ton shall be suspended as regards all vessels arriving in any
port of the United States from a port in the island of Trinidad, British
West Indies.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of
the United States to be affixed.
