NYSSA GATE CITY JOURNAL’S PROGRAM ------ + ------ Co-operative Marketing Association for Malheur Fanners A Properly Equipped Trailer Camp A City Park A Comprehensive Street Improvement Plan WHAT ARE THE REASONS? UST what are the principal points of ob jection to the reciprocal trade agree ments act? Why does the act work to1 the dis advantage of the farmer, the worker, the in dustrialist? Why are the men who are most in terested in the genuine welfare of these groups fighting to prevent extension of the powers it gives to the executive branch of the govern ment? The questions present a large order, but they are answered in a general sense in a minority report of the house ways and means committee submitted after hearings on House Joint Reso lution No. 96, which would extend the act in its present form for another three years. The minority report based its objections to the act on the following grounds: “It continues first, to delegate to the execu tive branch of the Government, contrary to the Constitution of the United States, the tariff, taxation, and treaty-making powers of Con gress. “Second, to take away from American pro ducers the right which they ordinarily would have had under Section 516 (b) of the Tariff Act of 1930 to litigate matters arising out of the trade agreements, including the question of constitutionality. “Third, to deny the Congress an opportunity to approve or reject the trade agreements, how ever injurious may be their effect upon domes tic producers. “Fourth, to ignore the principle of protection for American agriculture, industry, and labor by permitting tariff rates fixed by Congress to be altered without reference to domestic pro duction costs. “Fifth, to deny American producers an ade quate opportunity to be heard on the actual terms of the trade agreements before they be come effective. “Sixth, to provide for the general extension of the concessions made under a trade agree ment with a single country to all other coun tries in the world, notwithstanding the known existing discriminations against American com merce by many foreign countries. “Seventh, to permit the executive, in effect, to bind the hands of Congress by ‘freezing’ the existing tariff or exise treatment of articles with respect to which the Congress may, in the exer cise of its constitutional responsibilities and duties, wish to legislate in the future.’’ The foregoing paragraphs are worth more than a cursory reading, for they explain, in a nutshell, how the trade treaty act is one of the factors standing in the way of prosperity.— The Idaho Statesman.
