HOUSE COMMITTEE AGREES ID BASIS
 FOR VALUATION
Programme Will Be Recom- mended to Senate as Part of the Permanent
 Tariff Bill
By Associated Press

Washington, August 12.-The Amer lean valuation plan of assessing du- ties on imported merchandise with notifications and limitations pro- posed by republican members of the Senate finance committee was ac- cepted today at a joint conference by republican members of the House ways and means committee and the programme will be recommended to the Senate as a part of the perma- nanent tariff bill
 An attempt also was made at the conference to determine whether the next tariff law would contain a dye embargo. Although no formal acton was taken, it was indicated that the republican leaders would provide high protective rates for the dye in- dustry but probably would not favor the suggested three-year embargo A Joint committee composed of Sem ators Shoot of Utah and Dillingham; of Vermont and Representatives Longworth of Ohio, and Frear of Wisconsin, was named to study the rate question.
 The House members also agreed to an amendment by the finance com mittee to the Longworth resolution extending the life of the emergency tariff law as well as the dye em- bargo until January l. or until super ceded by the permanent law. The resolution with its amendment was ordered favorably reported.
 Even with the changes, Chairman Fordney of the ways and means com . mittee declared "a distinct victory" had been won for the American val tAx, al Ath ba .@f the committee expressed confidence that the proposition would be &C., eepted by the House.
 Changes made by the finance com mittee republicans, experts satd, would make the valuation plan more workable and less likely to result in litigation. As worked out by tho experts and accepted by the jolr :; conference. ad valorem duties would be assessed on the basis of the Amer lean wholesale selling price. IT. provision. it was believed, would ap- ply to about 75 per cent of all im- ports.
 Where no comparable and compet,- tive made articles Is found the duty would be assessed on the American wholesale selling price of compar able and competitive imported com- modity.
 In event no such basis exists, then the duty would be levied on the value of the article in it's home land at the time of export, plus necessary ex- penses to an American port and d reasonable profit totaling not less than 16 per cent Nof the articles value.
 If no basis Is found in tho first three alternatives, the basis of as- sessment would revert to the produc- ton cost, plus the necessary expense of laying the shipment down in America
