TIMBER FOR DOORS
HIGHER DUTY URGED (Par Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. Submissions were made to the Tariff Commission yesterday by Mr. A. Seed on behalf of the Dominion Federated Sawmillers' Association that an appropriate increase should be made in the preferential and general tariff on rough sawn timber cut to lengths and sizes for making doors, and that the present rate of duty in respect to wooden doors should be retained as at present. Mr. Seed said that the price of New Zealand doors had been consistently reduced since the present rates of duty were imposed, thus proving that higher rates of duty had not meant higher prices to users.
