Little or no help for the Ameri-

Bureau Federation officials in the
new house bill on tariff revision.
Those who had hoped that tariff
legislation in the present session
Of congress would benefit agriculture
seem doomed to disappointment"
said L. l.. Needler. secretary treas
urer. commenting on passage Of the
bill in the house at Washington.
The bill as it stands today places
agriculture at a greater disadyan-
tage than it was under the old tariff
schedules" Needler said.
Chester Gray, the Washington
representative of the American
Farm Bureau Federation. has made
a study of the measure and finds
chat agricultural products under the
1922 act have all average protec-
ton duty of 1886 per cent. The az
erage duty under the new act is
29.9 per cent. On industrial prod
ucts the average duty under the 1922
act is 42.03 per cent. while under the
new bill it will be increased to
47.O4 per cent. Tariffs on agri-
cultural products have been in
creased 4.O5 per cent and industrial
