C-landered Tariff on Alumi
num Has Lowered Prices
and Created Prosper
ous Market.
(The tariff .nn aluminum, as Imposed
by the republican congress in 1922,
has been used by John W. Davis,
democratic nominee for president, and
other democratic orators as cam
palpn fodder.
They say that paragraphs 339 and
374 of the tariff act were put in
because Andrew W. Mellon, secretary
of the treasury, is heavily interested
in the aluminum industry. These two
paragraphs refer to aluminum and
products of that metal. The consumer
has been depicted by the democrats
as having to pay a lot more for
aluminum ware because of this tariff.
The Omaha Bee has Just concluded
an investigation which would Indicate
that those who are trying to make
aluminum one of the Issues of the
campaign have not delved very deep
ly Into the matter. The price of
aluminum ware in the Omaha atores
today la Juat SO per cent cheaper than
It waa the day that President Harding
wa* Inaugurated.
Aluminum Sales Increase.
The aluminum companies in Au
gust alone announced a 10 per cent
decrease in the price of their prod
ucts.
The republican tariff act, lnatead
of making It harder for the house
wife to buy high grade kitchen ware,
aeema to have made It easier. An
other interesting fact developed by
the survey la the following:
Aluminum Bales In the last two
years are reported by Omaha mer
chants to have Increased steadily
month by month.
That means that the consumer,
finding he can buy aluminum articles
cheaper than before, la buying more
of them. The same is probably true
In all parts of the country. If more
articles are bought, the manufacturer
must make more, and prosperity re
volves around such things as this.
More factory workers are employed,
more raw metals are bought, .and
the miilenium is more nearly ap
proached than by the dumping on
the American market of quantities
of goods made where labor is dirt
cheap.
Great Reduction.
An aluminum article, which aold
f r $4.80 in 1920 and 13.95 in 1922,
now sells for $3.35.
Another Illustration of the effect
of the tariff on importations is dem
onstrated in a report made by Secre
t.ii-y Mellon to the senate finance
i unmittee on June 9, 1922. This ro
ll rt showed that a higher tariff
I should not necessarily increase thO
cost to the consumer. An aluminum
mice pot, for Instance, was bought
in Uermany for 2$.7 cents, and Its
landed value here, after freight. In
surance and the old duty of 25 per
cent was Imposed, amounted to 40
rents. The article was retailed for
$1.24, or a percentage of retail price
to landed cost of 210 per cent.
An egg cutter, coating 5 and thir
ty-four one hundredth* cent* after all
costs and dutiea had been levied, aold
for 49 cent*, or a percentage of re
tail price to landed cost of 488 per
cent.
