PROPOSED INCREASES OUTCRY IN CANADA HOOVER ADMINISTRATION CONCERNED flStaited Preaa Association—B? Electric Telegraph—Copyright) (Australian I'reun Association) WASHINGTON, 13th July. Authentic reports that Canada had protested against the proposed increases m American tariffs on shingles and lumber drew from the Slate Department that the Canadian Minister, Mr Massey, had conversed with Secretary Stimson on tariff matters. Signs indicate? that the Administration is more concerned over the outcry from Canada than over some protests by other nations. Mr Massey's verbal representations arc understood also to have embraced the proposed tariff on cattle. The discussion jm the foreign complaints against the.levies are kept simmering by rumours. An intimation has been made of. a retaliatory tariff on wheat by Britain as a sequel to increased United States taxes on imports. This is denied in official circles.
