In Mexico City on June 21 1946 a retelling notes the 1926 peak of conflict as priests abandoned churches in protest against enforcement of reform laws.

Agrigulturists Push Higher Rates in Tariff Debate

In a continued discussion, proponents liken the proposed tariffs to a historic boost for cultural products and advocate a 70 cent flax seed duty, up from 56 cents, to spur diversification in the Northwest. They claim the 56 cent rate ignores Argentina’s costs, while 70 cents would align domestic and foreign costs, with Latin America also shaping live cattle and meat rate talks. W G C Green argues against higher feeder cattle duties, urging preservation of the current 1.5 cent per pound for cattle up to 900 pounds and opposing a 2 cent rate for lighter stock.
