Philippine delegate opposes duties in free admission plan
Washington April 2 Philippine delegate Pablo Ovando presented a resolution from the Philippine legislature urging abolition of the duty on sugar and other imports, proposing a free admission system for American products into the Philippines without imposition of tariffs. He warned retention of the Philippines could be used to exploit workers, while Rep Younk argued the free tariff would harm the beef and shoe trades, noting the Dingley tariff's $60,000,000 cost in miscellaneous duties. Rep Speight criticized Southern Representatives for backing tariff changes contrary to lifetime teachings.
