Plywood Tariff Cut Opposed By Rep. Ellsworth WASHINGTON, June 7 (Wash ington Bureau of Journal) Warn ing that the laboring people of the Pacific Northwest will not be sat isfied with actions which indicate that the government must lower "your standard of living in order to raise that of other peoples of the world," Representative Harris Kllosworth urged there be no re duction in tariffs on plywoods. The Roseburg congressman, ap pearing before the tariff commit tee 011 reciprocity information, urged that the committee move carefully in its consideration of proposed tariff changes because, he said, 'welfare of hundreds of thousands of people in the Pa cific Northwest will be affected adversely if the decision is erroneous." Ellsworth said any reduction of present laruis now "could be jus tified only on the, basis of haphaz ard guesses." It is, he added, the desire of the workers in the ply wood industry that the committee and officials representing the United Slates in forthcoming tar iff negotiations "will stand firm upon the present rates." Competition Costly The congressman, discussing the competitive situation in the ply wood industry, pointed out that in British Columbia, log costs are approximately J15 per thousand less than comparable quality logs in this country and that on the basis of average cost of all logs. Canadians enjoy a 124 per thou sand advantage. Furthermore, he said. Pacific Northwest wage rates are the high est in the country and the Cana dian industry enjoys a competitive advantage 01 43 percent in this respect. Similarly, he said. Japanese dIv wood enters this country at $40 per thousand under U. S. mill costs in Seattle and Brazilian plywood can be purchased in New York, duty paid, at less than the cost of labor and materials alone for the same footage of Douglas fir plywood. For these, reasons, and others. Ellsworth said the committee should protect the plywood Indus try in this country against re duced tariffs.
