_ i
LONDON, Jan. 4, {lP)—Extension
of 50 per cent ad valorem tariff
to 16 new products was announced
by the British Board of Trade. A
large number of American exports
will be hard hit by the latest move
on the part of Great Britain to
prevent dumping of foreign prod
ucts on England, following the de-!
preciation of the sterling.
Included in the new list of ar
ticles which will come under the
tariff provision are all sorts of
manufactured cotton goods, photo
graphic cameras and parts, unex
posed paper films and plates and
numerous electrical devices, includ
ing incandescent lamps. Stockings,
socks, table linen and wearing ap
parel will come under the duty pay- i
able class also.
The Board of Trade made public
figures showing all articles includ
ed in the new list have been ex
ported to England in increasingly
large amounts during the last
month, in anticipation of tariff.
Several American firms have al
ready laid plans to establish fac
tories in England to avoid higher
rates and England has not ob
jected to such action.
