Tariff on bituminous coal harms New England industry
Stephen H. Lyna argues against a 75 cent per ton duty on bituminous coal in the Senate tariff debate. He contends the tariff burdens New England factories and transport, raises consumer costs, and suppresses wages, urging Dawes to join the drive to remove the duty. He cites production, wages, and trade figures, including Nova Scotia comparisons and CAPE BRETTON pricing, to show the tariff’s substantial economic impact on the region.
