" OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY PROCEEDINGS fi " UNDER-VALUATION OF IMPORTS Under-valuations of imports, which is costing the United present system of basing duties on the foreign invoice price of goods, will be presented by the American valuation plan of as- sessing import duties as proposed in the new tariff bill now be- fore the senate finance committee. This claim, made by Walter Camp, president of the American Valuation association, an or- ganization of representative American manufacturers, is sub- stantiated by the sworn testimony of several well known tariff authorities. George F. Lamb, special attorney in' the division of cus- toms, department of justice, in testifying before the senate ation during the last two months, which, he claimed, the Ameri- can valuation plan would have prevented. He said: “On May 17, I had a case for presentation of the board of general appraisers. That case was one of a firm up in Boston which had imported sets of aluminum pots from Ger- many. They had actually paid 300 marks pgr set, but they in-| voiced them at 115 marks, an undervaluation of 167 per cent. The importers’ agent who made the purchase went on the stand | and insisted that 115 marks was the correct price, but the pri- vate invoices which showed what had actually been paid were produced and he finally admitted that the consular invoice of 115 marks price was false, “There was also a case before the board of some mica dia- phragms for phonograph records. This merchandise was. in- voiced at 2 cents apiece. The board found the proper valuation| was 10 cents apiece, an undervaluation of about 400 per cent. “This act recalls the statement of Charles D. Lawrence, United States special attorney for the division of customs, who asks, ‘Why should the government not fix the dutiable value in the United States upon the basis of prices prevailing in the United States? Instead of seeking out the markets of the world, of which there are scores, in order to find values, as we are doing today, why would it not be simple, more efficient, scientific and accurate method to find the value of all imported commodities where such values may be found at first hand, and CHRISTIAN SCIENCE Services will be held in the Battles building, room 24, over the J, C.
