Tariff shows bias against finished boots and shoes
The piece argues that free hides boosted tanning and leather exports while tariffs on high quality leathers prevent domestic shoe production. It notes abundant sole and upper leather but lack of fine, imported leathers for quality shoes, keeping exports at low value and shoes at low grade. Stephen Brown cites European competitors with freer trade.
