The point h is been 7 ; raised whether the commission has tho right to apply tho Hexiblo pro visions of the law In the case of a retaliatory duty, "such as is placed on lows li'om Canada because of the px port restrictions, imposed by Canadian Provinces. To aeltlo the dispute, preliminary hearing will be: held jon August a; i he grounds upon whict, a reduc tion is asked are that it is unfair to companies having limber lands both in the In lied Stales and Canada to maintain a high duty on raw In m Oct- while the finished lumber is free of duty. While tho duty on. fir. spruce ami cedar logs was imposed us a retaliatory measure, it is contended by advocates of reduction that under the provisions of the tariff law It may be considered In the same class ns duties imposed to equalize foreign and domestic costs of production. The duty Imposed b.v the tariff law does not apply In case the country from which the logs are imported has no export restrictions. If is clianicd that the present rates were si-cured under the guise of "retalia tory tarifl" by west coast lumber companies owning timber lands only in this country and that the provision bears very heavily on those compan ies having lands in both countries. Paragraph 401, of the Tariff Jaw, which applies to logs says: hogs of fir, spruce, cedar or west ern hemlock, $1 per looo feet board .measurer provided that any such class of logs cut from any particular class of lands shall be exempt from .such duty If Imported from any coun try, dependency, province, or other sudbivision of government which 1ms, at no time during the 12 monthfl im mediately preceding their Importation Into tho United Slates, maintained any embargo, prohibition, or other restric ,tion (whether by law, order, regula tion, contract ura I relation or other wise, directly or Indirectly) uron the exportation of hucIi class of logs from .-mcb country, dependency, province or other subdivision of government if but from such class of lands.
