South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1921-06-11
BY LOUIS LUDLOW.

WASHINGTON. June IO-The
movement for a tariff on lumber
has run afoul OF a tremendously
hostile sentiment in congress as a
result Of the report OF the federal
trade commission complaining of
practices Of the West Coast Lum-
bermen's association. Many repub-
lcan members declared today tina.
the report Of the trade commission
has chilled their ardor for lumber
tariff, especially for the high rates
that have been prOI osed to protect
Washington state lumber interests
from an invasion OF Canadian lum-
Der.
The instruction in congress
against a lumber tariff Is attributed
directly TO the allegations in the
trade commission report which il
well founded, show that the very in
terests that would be the beneiiciar-
les OF the lumber tariff are the in
terests which by combining and fix
ing prices have held up the public
with Unfortunately high prices for
lumber That is the drift OF talk
among the insurrectionary members
and il has left a great deal to be
overcome before a tariff can be ap-
piled TO lumber and shingles along
substantially protective lines. Andrew

In a statement which he sent out

that establishment OF a IS percent

His statement continues:

issued a report TO congress alleging

the Sherman law by the West Coast
Lumbermen's association. Il Is IN
fortunate that any group OF men or
interests should have combined 70

OF low prices has been so pro-
nounced The prices charged for
lumber IN the middle western sta ties
during the last three years have
been so high as 10 put them beyond
the reach OF the average house
builder. Fifty percent Of our farms
are underbuilt and our urban cen
tiers are tremendously overcrowded.
Even in view OF this situation
