Jersey senator seeks scientific tariff reforms
Senator Frelinghuysen of New Jersey proposed an amendment to the tariff bill to enlarge the tariff commission to ten members. The panel would report every six months on conversion cost differentials and set duty levels to equalize them, with life-tenure appointments and salaries of 12,000. The plan aimed to depoliticize tariff decisions and grant the commission funds and authority to draft a law delivering real protection for American industry and labor.
