Simmons Charges Tariff Bill With Exorbitant Rates
In Washington on Sept 12 Senator Simmons of North Carolina unleashed a sharp denunciation of the pending tariff bill. He alleged the measure would raise billions in duties and hurt farmers by placing excessive and inconsistent rates on agricultural goods and common consumer items. He argued the bill expands presidential powers and ignores cost of production differences, urging revisions to curb favoritism toward wealthy buyers and misaligned duties.
