Wood Opposes Harding Tariff Authority Plan
Philadelphia industry leader John R. Wood argues in the Senate Finance Committee that giving the president power to set tariff rates would keep industries in a constant state of uncertainty and hinder rapid decision making by a tariff commission. Senators Smoot and Watson oppose the plan, saying it would undermine Congress and create instability in price and policy. The debate centers on whether to concede tariff powers to the executive branch or preserve legislative control over duties and schedules.
