Higher Tariff Duty Ordered on Tuna Washington (U.E) President Eisenhower Saturday ordered a higher tariff duty on excess im ports of tuna canned in brine, effective April 14. The White House said the Pres ident's proclamation provides that the per cent duty will be doubled, to 25 per cent, when imports exceed one-fifth of the previous year's U.S. pack of all varieties of tuna. The higher duty would re main in efect only for the re mainder of any year. Since one-quarter of this year already is past, the 1956 base percentage of imports will be 15 instead of 20 per cent. This means the higher tariff will be imposed when and if imports, after April 14 exceed 15 per cent of last year's domestic pack. West Coast fishermen long have sought the tariff on grounds tuna imports - were crowding them out of the domestic market. The White House said Mr. Eisenhower issued the proclama tion under the General Agree ment on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) in which the United States reserved the right to in crease tariffs on tuna canned in brine.
