Robb, Minister of Finance and the Saskatchewan sec- tion of the United Farmers of Can- ada, with respect to a blanket ap- plication for reduction in over 40 tariff items, was handed to the press recently, The correspondence, which open- ed in December of last year and continued intermittently until the end of last month, consists largely of statements by the Minister that the nature of the application af- fecting so many commodities made it difficult if not impossible, for the Tariff Advisory Board to deal with it. Mr. Robb suggested dealing with the items separately. The application which, if grant- ed, would result in putting more than a score of the items, which in the general tariff now call for duties, ranging from six to 30 per cent on the free list, was support- heather colorings, $1.19 ea. ed by a lengthy brief. It asked that the British preference be increas- ed to 50 per cent of the general tariff, "and that it be thereafter gradually increased until we have free trade with Great Britain in five years." Mr. Robb Informed George F, Edwards, vice-president of tne Saskatchewan section of the Unit- ed Farmers, 'that your applica- tion covers under one head, and supported by one brief, an extreme- ly wide range of commodities--so wide, in fact, that a joint enquiry into them all would be asking too much of the Board," He suggest- ed that the brief should be re- | Edwards, It expressed 'strong taken for granted that there would be arguments with respect to each of the tariff items mentioned and that he was prepared for that, He asked once more for permission to bring the original application be- fore the Tariff Advisory Board, There was some further corres- pondence, Finally Mr, Robb, after stating that there might be long delays should the application in its original form be presented to the Board, agreed to forward it if a copy of the resolution from the executive of the farmers' organiza- tions was furnished hinf, A copy of a resolution was then sent hy Mr, drafted under separate heads, | dissatisfaction with the way our Mr, Edwards replied that it was | application had been handled and THOMPSON'S "40 Simose St. 5. = Wo Deliver Arcade Daily News Very Smart New Designs in Boys' Pullover Sweaters sizes from 24 to 32 mostly medium colorings plain with stripe cuff and collars or Specially Priced our request ignored," and express. ed the view that "the Tariff Advi- sory Board, as it functions at pres. ent, cannot serve any useful pum pose so far as western agriculture is concerned."
