Assessing Duty on Canadian Cars Delayed Action
Assistant Secretary Batcheller has yet to act on the Treasury report about duties on Canadian cars. Col Hepburn argues for exclusion, citing documents showing Canada enforces stricter use of foreign cars in local traffic. Abuses due to Treasury neglect are claimed, with Mr Woodward of Bangor in town but unavailable. Bonding the Canadian Pacific may wait until Congress meets. Batcheller may delay to weigh commercial and political effects with the Dominion.
