Bill to inspect fruit delayed in House
Rep Robertson of Lexington sought to push an export apple and pear inspection bill under suspension of rules. Rep Shulte blocked it until the Glass-Steagall bill clears, with Robertson saying the measure is urgent to counter a trade war harming apples and pears. He cited support from the International Apple Association and others, with Agriculture Department backing and House agriculture committee approval. The bill, first in the Senate by Sen Byrd, would fund inspection fees and classify as a revenue measure. Robertson noted the export business once topped 30 million dollars annually.
