Few persons realize the enormous
amount of bananas imported into
this country which heretofore have
always come In free. Last year the
number amounted to approximately
41,000,000 punches or something
like, $500, 100000 individual ban
anas.
Probably no other fruit with the
possible exception of the apple is SO
largely consumed by people Of small
means. Ninety-five per cent of last
years imports. it is reported. were
consumed by the working class and
the banana is almost universally
found throughout the country in the
noontime dinner pail. It is in fact
the only fruit which the working
man can obtain cheaply throughout
the whole year.
Food experts have pointed out
that the banana is not merely rel
ish but an important food product,
since it is high in those essentials
which go to determine food values.
AS a result much surprise is express
ed here at an attempt on the part OF
the administration to levy tax up
on the dinner pail and the market
basket.
In commenting upon. the proposed
import duty, one of the largest i'm
porters said:
Bananas are an important food
product and 1t is scarcely logical to
begin taxing them when most other
articles are being placed on the free
list. Bananas are consumed by the
poor and by those Of small means
rather than by the wealthy and
well-to-do. 1t is practically the only
fruit that has been SO cheapened In
price as to have been brought with
IN the reach of the poorest consum-
er. To increase the cost Of this poor
mans fruit as would be done by
duty seems indefensible."
Surprise is expressed in many
quarters at this proposal to tax the
poor mans fruit. to raise instead OF
lowering the cost OF living in the
face Of the policy outlined by the
present administration. The opinion
most generally expressed is that, con-
sistency will necessitate the elimin-
alton OF the proposed duty from the
tariff bill. 1t is also being pointed
out that 1t will be somewhat din
cult to reconcile the increase in tho
cost of this food product with the
proposed decreased duties on auto
mobiles, and the removal of the tar
if on sugar which is raised in this
country, with the placing of a tariR
on the poor mans fruit, which is not
grown in this country.
