Calder Urges Quick Passage of Tariff Bill to Curb Profiteering
Senator Calder of New York declared that tariff legislation must pass this session to stop profiteering by importing interests. He accused firms of 100 to 2,000 percent profits from foreign goods and warned delaying or defeating the tariff would rob American consumers. He cited New York port data showing rising imports and said Europe’s lower foreign costs fuel competition harming U.S. industries. The senator asserted the bill will pass and that the Senate finance committee has begun steps toward enactment.
