Up Before Senate Sobn
Washington, April 22. Anti
dumping and currency - valuation
provisions of the emergency tariff
bill will be revised and the measure
reported to the. senate Saturday or
Monday, Senator Penrose announcd.
Senator Penrose said that while il
was possible the provision limiting
depreciation in foreign currency to
66 23 per cent 'below . normal par
value in assessing import duties
might be stricken -out, it was not
probable. lie admitted this feature
of the bill has caused trouble, but
said it could be redrafted so as to
provide increased protection with
out inflicting undue hardships.
Passage of the bill in the senate
by the end of next week was pre
dicted by ..the senator. So change
will be made in the sections of the
bill imposing duties on agricultural
products, he said.
