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.
