House Committee Agrees to
Reconsider Prohibition
ON Lumber Importation
rro.. Ths Tsio~ne's Washington Bureaa

r~o,-s Ths Tsi5wne's Washington Bureda
WASHINGTON, June i7.-president
Harding fsvors provision in the per-
msnent tariff legislation giving the Ex-
seutive authority to barter reciprocal
agreements with foreign countries and
n apply retaliatory rates in the event
spother nation ievies duties against
commodities which the United States
hss on the free list. AS a general
rraposition he would not admit free
the products of any country which i'm
poses duties on similar American goods.
Instead OF Congress applying rigid
reSaliatory tariff, as Chairman Fordney
of the Ways and Means Committee
,roposes, in the case of finished lumber
from Canada, the President thinks the
mower to resort to retaliation should be
y.sted in the Executive, to be exercised
as trade conditions seem to warrant.
This was the explanation given to-day
hv an Administration spokesman OF
tbe statement made by Mr.. Fordney
tbat "the President is with me in every
.h;ne do" Mr.. Fordney was dis
snssing the lumber suggestion and
eraated the impression that Mr.. Hard
re had approved it. The President, 1T
wes stressed by those whe know what
bs has in mind, did not approve the
retaIjatory provision merely against
Canada. which is involved in the lumber
tariff proposed, but merely the general
proposition.
The President, however, is strong
believer in the principle of reciprocity
and Mr. Fordney in urging his lumoer
tariff plan has insisted that 1t Is noth-
ing more than an application OF that
nrinciple. He ignores all arguments
made as to the nees of importing ium,
her to meet the housing shortage and
to conserve our rapidly vanishing Slra-
Der supply.
Although Mr.. Fordney has created the
;mnression at the Capitol that he has
tbe hacking of the White House IN MS
efforts to prohibit the Importation OF
Canadian lumber unless the Dominion
removes its duty of 25 per cent on the
finished American. product, the Ways
and Means Committee IS ready to re-
consider its action in voting retail
alton against Canada. Representative
GEORGE NJ Young, of North Dakota. a
member of the committee, who led the
fight for free lumber, said the lumber
tariff question will be taken up again
Monday.
The demand from Senate leaders that
the House make haste with tariff Iegis-
lation is having effect on Mr.. Fordney.
He is said TO have advised members Of
the Senate Finance Committee that the
House will pass the permanent legisla-
ton July Is or 16, certainly not later
than July 16. The program now is to
introduce the bill a week from to-
morrow. report it the Monday follow
ing and begin consideration at once
About two weeks will be devoted to de-
bate in the House.
