Name..., , - AAArnt : 5 Me TARIFF CUTSr THREATEN UTAH By OTTO HERRES, Mining Engineer After feeding the world and providing pro-viding metals for the great arsenal of democracy, the productive Industries Indus-tries of the country and the manpower man-power made strong by our great natural na-tural resources, are being threatened threat-ened with converting In various, ways, and If they see tariff rates coming down and foreign markets opening up, they may be forced to convert to the things that offer the best opportunities under those conditions. con-ditions. Perhaps this advice can be extended to tell the people of the West and South to what they should convert the farms, forests, mines, fields, railroads and related activities. ac-tivities. The Administration bill to extend the Trade Agreements Act would permit tariff reductions up to 50 per cent from the rates prevailing on January 1 of this year In new reciprocal pacta that may be negotiated. negoti-ated. This proposal goes farther than Its predecessors, in that it would authorize a further 60 per cent cut in rates that have already been reduced by earlier trade agreements. Many tariffs have been reduced by 50 per cent in agreements agree-ments concluded with 27 countries since the law was first enacted In 1934, although the average reduction reduc-tion has been around one-third. The State Department now Is seeking authority to go further with tariff cuts than it has been possible to do so far. The Administration is asking Congress for an extension of executive execu-tive power to reduce tariff rates as much as 75 percent. The livestock grower, farmer, miner and lumber producer are asked to meet foreign competition. Workers in this picture pic-ture are looking at low foreign wages brought here in the form of raw material imports. An example may be found in the case of zinc. The 20 per cent reduction In import im-port duty on zinc resulting from the Canadian Trade Agreement signed November 17, 1938, was 'a heavy blow to the domestic zinc industry and proved a threat to our national self-sufficiency. Under the most-favored-natlon policy the duty reductions re-ductions granted Canada in the Reciprocal Agreement automatically automatical-ly applied to Imports from all zinc producing countries except Germany. Ger-many. As a direct result of the duty reductions from 1.75 to 1.40 cents a pound on slab zinc and from 1,50 to 1.20 cents a pound on zinc contained in ores, imports increased in-creased materially in 1939. The St. Louis quotation for prime western Zinc dropped from 5.05 to 4.50 cents a pound and remained at this level until late July, 1939, when markets moved upward on buying in anticipation anti-cipation of the outbreak of war In Europe. The tariff reductions caused a drastic curtailment of the domestic domes-tic zinc industry. Several mines and smelters were compelled to close, wage cuts were forced in some districts and search for new ore reserves became uneconomical as the selling price barely covered operating costs without provisions for depletion, depreciation or adequate ade-quate return on capital Investment. ; The Director of the Bureau of Mines, Dr. John W. Finch, in April, 1938, stated: "I should like to suggest sug-gest that a reduction in the present tariff on lead and zinc can hardly be considered in the public interest if viewed from the standpoint of national defense." Time soon proved this statement to be correct because be-cause an extremely tight position existed throughout 1941 until Idle plants could be rehabilitated and new plants gotten under way. A more serious condition probably would have prevailed in the zinc industry of the country if tha period of low tariffs had been of longer duration. In the case of most raw materials, cost of production In the United States is influenced by higher wage rates in this country. Domestic Domes-tic mineral producers are at a disadvantage dis-advantage in comparison with foreign for-eign producers because of the lower low-er grade of ore found in domestic deposits. Formerly these disadvantages disad-vantages were offset by superior technical skill and the use of improved im-proved machinery. Now American . mining practice has been adopted abroad and foreign costs of production produc-tion reduced accordingly. Zinc, copper and lead have contributed con-tributed notably to the war effort and are recognized as indispensable for the defense of the nation. Measures Meas-ures must be taken to support the mining of these metals as a vital t part of the post-war Industry and of our military security. Additional tariff reductions to weaken the mining min-ing industry is not the correct answer. Lower Import duties will seriously serious-ly Injure producers of essential metals and result in extensive unemployment un-employment in our metal mining areas and depression in the regions surrounding them. Because mining often is the only occupation in these regions, the problems of stranded population can be anticipated. The East knows something of this from the struggle in the coal mining regions and experience with bootleg boot-leg conditions and distress in the anthracite districts before the war. Zinc mining covers a wider area extending from the eastern states of New York and New Jersey through the central states to the west and Pacific coast. Studies show that for every ton of zinc Imported Im-ported in the form of concentrates the loss in employment in the Rocky Mountain area amounts to 16.58 man shifts for mining and milling zinc ore and smelting the lead and iron concentrates produced In the milling process. Including the service industries dependent on this work, total employment increases in-creases to 55.26 man shifts, representing rep-resenting support for one day of approximately 196 workws and dependents. de-pendents. In case of tb. importation importa-tion of 100,000 tons' of zinc per year to displace Rocky Mountain production, pro-duction, 65,000 people would be deprived de-prived of livelihood (that Is 100.000 times 196 divided by 300, working days In a year, equals 65,000), without with-out taking Into account the loss of employment In other areas becaus of loss of western markets.
