By Guardian's Special Wire) WASHINGTON, Nov. 12-.A court’ attack on the constitutionality of the Reciprocal Tariff Act was promised today as the United States and Canada pushed prepar- ations for the signing of another trade treaty based upon it. The Florida Alrlcultural Tariff Association announced thit it would begin legal proceedings im- mediately and carry them to the supreme court of the United States if necessary. coincidentally, reports and ap- prehensions cf what may be con- tained in the new pact with Can- ada brought protests from cattle and lumber regions. Representative Harry Coffee (D-Neb.) carried the livestock question to President Roosevelt and said he had received assur- ances that if the cattle tariff were lowered a quota system would be provided. A rumored slash of b0 percent in lumber duties evoked from Dr. Wilson Compton, of the National Lumber Manufacturers’ Association, an assertion that such e. move would be "selling the lum- ber industry down the river." In Chicago. doubts over the agreemenvs terms contributed to a bearish wheat market. The Florida. Association com- plained that the trade treaty with. Cuba was operating to the dis- advantage of Florida fruit and vegetable producers. ‘the law will be challenged, itiwos said, as an unconstituiicnaidelcgation of pow; er by Congress. In the face of these develop- ments, Secretary of Btate Hull said at a press conference that the department was losing no sleep over the question of the act's con- stitutionality. It is getting ready for the formal signing of the Canadian treaty. Prime Minister W. L. Mackenzie King may visit Washington again for that purpose. Hull will sign for the United States. The law under challenge per- mitted the President to reduce tariff rates by as much ‘as, but not more than, 50 percent, in return for similar coneessi re from 10r- eign countries intended to increase United States exports. Since its passage, it has been challenged frequently in Congress with Senators Vandenburg (R- Mich.) and Dickinson (R-Iowal among leaders bf the attack Strive To Avert Transatlantic Rate War usw iroak, Nov. ia-a possib- ility that a threatened rate wlr in the transatlantic trade may be averted was seen in thé statement of Chairman of the North Atlantic continental freight conference. that 13 steamship companies com- prising the organisation had voted to extend the effective data of certain resignations from tomor- row to Nov. l0 to allow time for negotiations to hold the rate stab- ilization group together.
