Paper Tariff Battle Ties Canadian Trade to Smoot Analysis
The Underwood Simmons tariff proposal would impose a 12 percent ad valorem duty on print paper over four cents a pound and up to four cents, with a countervailing tax to retaliate against foreign export license fees. Smoot analysis warns of conflict with the 1911 Canadian reciprocity act, arguing the later statute prevails and could repeal the earlier duty-free provision. Republican leaders plan to report the bill today with full debate likely Monday, after Finance Committee action. A separate court ruling declares the Terminal Taxicab garage at 1270 1938 Twentieth Street Northwest not a nuisance and erected legally.
