Ia FoLLETTE's AMEN DMENT
Proposes Saving to Consumer of Cot
ton and Woolens Of S341. 100000.

Washington. july l2.-Senator La
Folette's long promised wool and cot
ton tariff revision amendment TO the
Canadian reciprocity bill, proposing
duty reductions which he calculated
would save the consumer Sl69,000,00
annually on cottons and 112.000,000 on
woolens, will be introduced tomorrow.
In a statement explanatory of the
amendment and made public tonight.
La Toilette says that against this
enormous saving to the consumers
which assumes that the price to the
consumer will be reduced to the same
leXtent as the reduction of duty, the
loss of revenue to the government UNI
der the two schedules will approximate
$50, OO0, 600
THE change for the WOODEN schedule
as a whole" says La Toilette, will
represent a reduction from an average
lad valorem of 61.74 per cent under
the present, to 1924 per cent. or a
Production of 2313 ad vaiorem and over
80 per cent. below the present rate.
THE average ad valorem rate on cot
ton goods including artificial silk, is
To be reduced under the proposed
amendments from $3.50 per cent. under
the present act to 29.45 per cent. rep
fesenting a reduction of over % per
icent ad valorem and over Al per cent.

proposed are still greater than neces-

per cent. below the average condition
whereas on June / conditions were only

years, corn 40 per cent. larger. oats 1913
per cent. less. barley 11.6 per cent less,
potatoes los per cent less. tobacco %
