TARIFF RATES ON
VEGETABLE OILS
BRING PROTESTS
Washington, Jan. 12. (WASH
INGTON BUREAU OF THE JOUR
NAL) Seattle commercial interests
forwarded strong protests against
the -proposed vegetable .oil rates in
the Fordney tariff bill, alleging that
the duties named are practically
prohibitory, and will': result' in tying
tip many steamers because of diffi
culty in. securing return cargo from,
the Orient,
Congressman John F Miller of Seattle
offered an j amendment to reduce the
rates on peanut, cottonseed, coconut
and soya bean oils, but It wan defeated
without a. record vote. He read tele
: graphic protests from the Seattle Cham
ber of Commerce, the . importers and
K porters association of' Seattle, the
China club iof Seattle, the Foreign Com
merce Association of the Pacific Coast
and B. Hoy Anderson. The statement
of Anderson summarised the matter
thus :
WILL STOP TttADE
"Such drastic measure will,- in my
Judgment, based one. personal experience
as a, custom-hoy se broker during the operation-
of i the" IMngley tariff of 1837,
entirely eliminate such trade to this
coast, except inconsequential shipments
for, local Japanese and Chinese consump
tion. The attitude.of my firm can hardly
be considered as selfish when the ques-
. tion Involves one where Seattle's fine
terminals - and storage facilities are
likely to be empty.
"Today j six American ocean-going
steamers are tied up in Smith's cove for
lack of either outward or inbound car
goes, and the question of whether special
, tariff legislation is going to improve
certain difficult conditions prevailing at
this time is too doubtful and important
to pass without exhaustive hearings
from both, sides to show that the cot
tonseed people of the South and the
rice, beans and peanut people are not
making a reasonable profit. The north
west comer of the United States is so
sparsely populated that our future de
pends upon water-borne trade."
TO PBOTECT INVESTORS
'Miller's plea received no comforting
response from ' Chairman Fordney. who
retorted that while tfie people Sf Seattle
are much interested. In the exclusion of
Japanese, they are asking for the ad
mission of products of Japanese labor.
There have been imports of 600,000 tons
of vegetable oils from the Orient in the
last year, he said.
VI have been covered up by tele
grams," added Fordney, "and the Se
attle Chamber of Commerce sent a man
hea to see me to induce me to withdraw
my objection to these oils coming into
this country so that the docks of Seattle
. and the men who -have money invested
in those docks can make money out of
the foreign Importations coming Into the
country to destroy American capital and
American (labor. There is nothing to the
proposition beyond that."
