Retailers Fight American Value Plan in Tariff
Retailers led by the Retail Dry Goods Association of New York oppose the American valuation feature of the Fordney tariff bill. The group, including Macy and Bloomingdale’s, declared in a resolution on April 11 that the proposed valuation would raise prices and harm domestic industry. Fordney defended the plan, arguing duties are absolute and that a true value system would protect American labor while allowing more purchases from Europe. The dispute centers on whether American valuation would boost prices or boost domestic production.
