"Mr 7 IMPORTATION OF HOPS HADE FOR THE FLAVOR Brewers Buy Foreign Goods "AVhether High or Jwy VDutyor No DutyHeavy Production and Surplus '& Cause of Low; Prices Here Is the Opinion! . r" ' v By Jljmu B. Cofcsa. ;.- '.The .project' of . Increasing .the duty on hope brought into the United State has attracted attention from producers as, well as dealers for many years. i Just now the;, fcplo is receiving ull discussion tor two representatives ofn hop Interests from 4he Paclflo coast El. Clement Horst and Herman Klaber have been before the -ways and means committee at Washington the past week. While these representatives were-sent to Washington by a rew targe grow, ers of California' it lias been general ly advertised that they were the repre sentatives of a majority' of the 'grow1 ers. . y . , -,-v-vj.,;:. .-v'.;;ti y The' present'; duty . on j foreign - hops' brought Into this country , is . 12e a pound and it was the aim of Messrs. Klamer and Horst to get it increased tO 24C.f t-1 :V rs- j Just what good this will do the nop industry of the Pacific coast is a big. question among the producers. To most of them it seems that the princi pal" trouble with the hop market -fend Its prices just now is that far too many hales are grown in the United States. The production has been increasing much faster in this country' than have the; imports in fact., the hop .market here , is scarcely affected ,- at any time to any great extent .'hy the Imported article. ' We import annually Just about so many bales of hops whether the price-is ' high or low. ;- - Tne faut that the United SUtes" an nually exports 4 a greater number - of bales than are imported seems vindi cate to the local grower that we iare generally -able to hold our own when it j comes to hops. It has been the custom of many of the larger American brewers to utilize a certain amount of foreign' hops.... in ordet to get a certain flavor whiclv Am erican hops are said not to " possess 1 and even when foreign hops were sell ing at a very heavy advance over-Americans, on this account- and the duty was lZo a pound, about the same amount of imports were shown, s v The cause of the low prices is there fore looked upon , by . the trade in -general as too areat production in the tTnited States. Tpls acreage has-been decreased rapidly within tne ai i years and the report is now .current that the Increased duty Is being asked for simply to cause the growers t con- lnn In Htialnsa mnA thllS lllOW ShOlt sellers to secure their hops atnomlnald Values--"'; ,!,, ,-.;-T. - '"-A v ' i laerbert' S.
