Dingley Analyzes Tariff Bill Amendments and Revenue Effects
Washington reports Chairman Dingley of the Ways and Means Committee outlined how House amendments to the tariff bill would affect first year revenue. He noted many changes reduce revenue, especially on wool, sugar, tea, and clothing, while certain duties on opium and hides could raise income. He argued the sugar schedule and tea duty have complex effects depending on treaty status and stock levels.
