The Tariff Board re investigates duties on Australian iron and steel wire with English and foreign references. A Joint Committee witness argues higher duties replace a bounty and are unjust, noting domestic industry protection has kept prices high and urges the industry stand on its own if consumers cannot bear subsidies.
