In his capacity of Ml... ister of Finance, the Hon. R..B. .Berinett made the announcement to is crowded chamber. Interest in the statement was intense. The gflllgflgg were crowded with interested listen- ers. On the floor of the Chamber members waited with even more eager attention than that which is manifested on an ordinary Budget day. It was the first tariff revision of the new Government and import- ant changu were in the air. Tliey did notfail to materialize.

Upward Revision

The changes brought down by M1". Bennett traversed many of the most lmllfirtant groupi in the Customs tariff. Textiles. clothing, farm mach- inery, iron arid steel, and agrlcultur-f a1 products were among the groupsf affected. In almost every case the? revision was upward. In many cases the increases announced were very material. Both specific and ad val- orcm duties were employed to iri- crease some of the items. It was an-

nounced that the new rates would become effective tomorrow. OTTAWA. Ont, Sep. l6.-To

crowded galleries and a well-filled house Premier R, B. Bennett today announced material increases iri the Canadian tariff on some 125 items. The schedules affected are im- portant. Duties cn tcxthes, boots and shoes. agricultural implements. iron and steel. gasoline and fresh meats are increased under the proposed measure. Countervailirig duties in- troduoed by the former government are done away with but replacing them are rates. which. in almost ev- ery instance. are higher than the prevailing rates.

One of the most important features of the new tariff is the imposition of a specific duty i.n addition t; the ad valorem impost on textiles. This applies to cottons, woollens. silks and other textile products from the yarn. right through to the firiished gar- merit.
