Assessment Basis to Be

Farmer Bloc's Recommends
ton Received BY Finance
Committee - Would Take

Increase Rate On Other
Agricultural PrOducts-Oth-
.er Substitutes For Fordney
Plan Discussed

Washington, Jan. 1S.-Final discus
sion Of the basis of assessing the i'm
port duties which are TO be written
into the new tariff bill was started
today by Republican members of the
senate finance committee. They hope
to reach a decision on this, the most
important and difficult phase of the
Of next week and then the actual
VIC * of construction of the rates will
be undertaken. The hope now is that
the bill can be reported to the senate
about March l.
Besides discussing the American
valuation plan and various substi-
tutes with members of the tariff COM
mission and the court of customs APP
peals, the committee men received
from the Senate Republican farmer
tariff bloc recommendation as to
rates on farm products. These in
cluded a suggested duty of five cents
a pound on short staple cotton, which
always has been on the free list, and
a rate Of SO cents a pound on wool,
on the basis Of the secured contest as
against the % cents proposed in the
Fordney bill. Rates at increases over
those in the Fordney bill on wheat,
oats and many other products were
urged.
In entering upon their discussion of
the basis of assessing duties. the
committee members. had. in confer
ence with them Thomas o. Marvin
and William Burgess of the tariff
commission and Judge Marion De-
Neyes a member of the court of Gus
toms appeals. They endorsed the
plan, outlined in an amendment pro-
posed yesterday by Senator Smoot
Of Utah, of assessing duties on the
basis Of the selling price of the i'm
ported article in the American mar
ket rather than on the value Off the
comparable article produced IL the
United States, the Fordney bill pro-
posal.
Besides discussing this proposal at
some length. the committee men went
into a general discussion of the
American valuation plan as written
into the Fordney bill and several
substitutes for it were to have been
proposed. 1t was said that the dis
cussion did not develop any definite
trend of opinion among senators FOR
any one plan. 1t was learned. how
ever. that several senators are lean
ing to the proposal in the latest
