brisk competition was ahead. So the

additional on certain grades of their
product and they were granted it, even
though Senator Aldrieh said it at first
it would be impossible.
These are instances of the competi-
ton from Japan, which the manufae-
turers are complaining about and which

duties have been put up to meet that
situation. AS an example there was

decline of the American industry of
