‘ﬁle first seed shipped to the United States in 1920 entered duty free. but a few ears later the United States mnosed a tariff duty .of fifty cents per hundred

This was a heavy handi- cap to our seed trade bu no ei- fort was made to have the rate reduced except that your directors held a meeting with the Federal Minister of Agriculture who was at the time on a visit to the Pro- vince and who said he would take tho matter up with his Govern- ment. “ ., was heard from

The climax on tariff rates was reached in 1929 when the l-lawley Smoot bill was introduced. This glaccd the duty at one dollar pel-

undred pounds. It was evident that such an excessive rate would mean the death cf our seed potato trade with the United States which was now annually over one million bushels. How could we offset such a high tariff? There was no response from a s the Federal Government, Ottawa for a better rate. Neither the New Brunswick Government nor the potato growers in New ‘Brunswick would consent to heln fight a duty that certainly ruin our trade. Your Association then turned for help elsewhere and ob- tained it from a large number of the United States buyers‘ ni nur seed. From Boston to Florida many of those who supported us for lower duties are still buying PEI. seed. A full report of briefs submitted and information sup- plies ls found in Tariff ments i929 "Hearings before the Committee on Ways and Means House oi Representatives Vol Schedule 7 Agricultural Division." It required 45 pages of fine tyne in this large volume to publish the full record. Anyone who ls skepti- cal of what follows should read the record.
