Countervailing Duty Debate on Print Paper Probed

Washington June 6 The Senate Finance Sub committee chaired by Senator Johnson of Maine debates the paper schedule of the Underwood tariff bill. A potential amendment would levy a countervailing duty on print paper imported from Canada of up to two and a half cents per pound. John Norris of the American Newspaper Publishers Association opposed any countervailing duty, but the matter remains unsettled with a possible lean toward imposing the duty. The bill would apply a 12 percent ad valorem import tax, while the countervailing duty targets Canada amid pulp wood restrictions. The proposal would extend the added tax to print paper and would affect any country or subdivision imposing export charges on paper or wood pulp used in its manufacture.
