4 CLEAR EXPLANATION OF WHAT
AMERICAN VALUATION MEANS
by ]. C. BENNETT

There is nothing mysterious or rev.
olutionary about the American Valu
alton Plan in connection with pro-
tectiye tariff. 1t is merely the appl-
cation Of a rule of common sense ana
arithmetic to meet a business emer-
sency.
Before the war, when all currencies
were at par and international exchange
was normal, tariff rates were levied
upon the value Of goods expressed IN
terms Of the currency of the country
IN which the goods were made. TO
continue that practice Under present
conditions OF international exchange
"ouio be ruinous to the countries
whose currencies are practically at
par. The American Valuation Pan
uiereiy offsets the depreciation in for
sisn currencies. A tariff with an Amer
ican Valuation Plan today gives the
american manufacturer no more OF
monopoly or no more power arbitrar-
ny % fix his prices, than the protec-
i've tariff OF former days, which lev
'eo duties upon the basis of foreign
valuation.

May Import Wooden
Goods From Europe

Boston. Sept. 7o.-The American
Wooden company may import manu-
featured goods from Germany and
other European countries where costs
are lower than in the mills here.
President William M. Wood, on his
return to his desk from a trip to
Europe, said he expected a report
within q day or two covering this
possibility from Chester l.. Dane,
president of the American Wooden
Products company, a subsidiary, who
has just completed an independent in
vestigation OF conditions abroad.
deportation of manufactured
woolens from the United States is out
Of the question. under existing eco
nomic conditions" Mr.. Wood said.
with this in mind Mr.. Dane went
abroad to study European conditions
and see what could be done to keep
his organization alive.
cit must be realized that Europe,
especially Germany, is making goods
at costs far below ours. Trade fol-
lows the price, not the flag. These
products are going to come to this
country anyhow. We want to find out
to what extent it Is practical and de-
sirable that we take part in this
trade" 4
Should 1t be decided that such 1
venture WAS a promising the
American. Wooden Products, company
would, 30 far as operations, in the
United States are CONCERNED, change
from an exporting to I an importing
the output Of European mills in South
America or anywhere else in the
world that 1t might find buyers, Mr..
Wood said,
He would not discuss a report that
President Dane already had secured
options on the product Of mills in
Germany, Czecho-Slovakia and Aus
tria, until he had heard from Mr..
Dane.
MI. Dane later said there was no
proposal to bring into this country
any goods that might compete with
the products of the company's mills.
There were certain products Of for
eign countries made at low prices that
were not produced here and it was in
suchAgoods only that interest for
American importation lay. he explain
ed. 4
He had talked with mil interests in
Germany, Hungary and Czecho-
their products, but had not carried
the matter to the point Of obtaining
options. Under the plan now being
considered goods would be bought In
Czecho-Slovakia. for instance, and
sold in SouthSAmerica or the Far Eas,
to meet the competition in those
countries from the low-cost goods Of
other European centres.
1T is farthest from Mr.. Wood,
thought or mind to do anything tina
will bring European labor in connpe'
tition with the people in our Ameri'
can mills" said Mr.. Dane.
