G.. o. p. Methods.
Chairman Fordney's report said
that in drafting the bill. the rePub-
lican members Of the ways and
means committee were governed by
a desire 10 encourage American am
ity without at the same time saddling
any unnecessary burdens on the con
sumer. The agricultural products
scheduled was described as an all
American tariff on a normal basis,
and with reference 10 the wool
schedule, it was declared that the
compensary duty on manufacturers
of wool had been kept down 10 the
lowest point consistent with the peo-
pie OF protection"
Explaining the dye schedule. the
report said the committee was OF
the opinion that no tariff duties. no
matter how high could meet the
conditions that would arise when
Germany again was in position 10
force her dyes and dye stuffs on the
American market.
With regard 10 the sugar SEIZED
ule, the report said the duty propos-
ed would yield S12O,0OO.OOO a year
without increasing cost of sugar 20
American consumers, adding that
since the emergency tariff, with its
sugar duty went into effect, the price
Of sugar had continued TO decline
despite predictions of opponents Of
such tariff that the price would in
crease.
