MAKING OF TINPLATE
Allegations in Canada
QUESTION OF DUTIES -
Ottawa, January 7.
Mr. H. J. Biggar, the biggest buyer of tinplate in Canada, told the Royal Commission on Mass Buying, that Richard Thomas and Company, Limited, of Wales, had opened a plant in Ontario a year ago as a blind to maintain the dumping duties against non-British tinplate under the Empire treaties. The present 20 per cent, preference would be removed if no tinplate was manufactured in Canada. The chairman, Mr. Kennedy, declared that the dumping duties would be useless if Wales secured the market in this way.
