PAGE SIX THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1930 IMMEDIATE GOVT. ACTION ON AUTO "TARIFF UNKNOWN Ottawa, Oct. 6--What action. the government may take.with respect to amendments of the tariff on automo- biles has mot yet been: disclosed. Newspaper reports to the effect that the government might defer the im- position of such a tariff were consid- ered by local dealers to mean that the authority vested in the governor in council to fix allowances for dis: counts on imports where this practise prevailed might not be exercised for some time. Automobiles were nowhere men- tioned either in the new tariff sched- ules passed by parliament at the special session or in the amendments to the Customs Act, sponsored by Hon. E. B. Ryckman, minister of na- tional revenue. During the discus- sion in the House of Commons, J. S. Woodsworth (Lab. Winnipeg North Centre) asked Dr. Ryckman if the application of the amendment which relates "to the allowance of discounts and the valuation of imports preju- dicially or injuriously affecting Can- adian producers" could be extended to used cars. To this Mr. Ryckman replied that if a crisis arose and Canadian producers were being in- juriously affected, and such was hon- estly stated to be the. case, he thought "it could be done." Later on in the debate, however, Mr. Ryckman said that automobiles were not mentioned in the present bill.
