BARRETT WASHINGTON (#—President Ei- senhower appeared today to have averted a threatened election-year clash with some key congressmen in his own party over the tender topic of tariff walls, He did so by putting off—until next year—his request fur a three- year renewal of the Reciprocal Trade Act with power to lower tariffs an additional 5 per cent each year. In a letter released late yester- day, Eisenhower said he still re- Barded this hotly controversial Program as “‘indispensable” in the national interest. But he suggested that Congress only hold thorough hearings on it this year, and take up for action early in 1955. Meanwhile, he said, Congress could renew the act as it stands for one more year. The present law expires June 12. Several high-ranking Republi- cans in Congress who have been ready to fight for higher instead of lower tariffs indicated they would be happy to postpone the threat- ened battle for another year and simply renew the present act. One of the leading advocates of higher tariff protection for some American industries is Rep. Dan- iel A. Reed (R-NY), chairman of the House Ways and Means Com- mittee and oldest Republican in continuous service in the House. Reed’s committee handles tariff bills—and also such matters as taxes and social security which have an important place in Eisen- hower’s legislative program. . Reed said today he was “grati- fied” at the President’s ew: stand, expressed in a letter to Charles H. Percy, president of the Bell and Howell Co. of Chicago. Reed promised full hearings by his committee and termed it “‘es- pecially important” that his group hear testimony from industries and labor groups who say they are being hurt by imports. Another leading advocate of higher tariffs is Rep. Richard M. Simpson (R-Pa). A veteran Ways and Means member, Simpson also heads the Republican Congression- al Campaign Committee, which must work closely with Eisenhow- er in its drive to boost or at least retain the now-slim GOP margin in the House. On the Senate side, Chairman Millikin (R-Colo) of the Senate Fi- nance Committee has also been a critic of some administration “low tariff” policies.

Since when did a GRITS manufacturer become so self-important with the aid of the present acting governor of Florida and so efficient in the matter of roadways that he thought he knew all the answers on roads? It is a long ROAD between roads and GRITS, And, to add insult to injury, the present acting governor of Florida saw -fit to appoint the President of the Miami Chamber of Commerce to make an exhaustive study of the road link between Miami and Key West—WHY? Those of us who are in business in Key West and on the Florida Keys know that there has been a terrific effort put forth on the part of Miami business men to retain the tourist trade in Mi- ami. They have even “jumping off place.” gone so far as to say that the Florida Keys and Key West is the : So the present acting governor of Florida plays into the hands of the Miami Chamber of Commerce by appointing their president to investigate reported irregu- larities on the Florida Keys so that he can gather votes from Dade County. In addition to this the present acting governor of Florida passed up qualified legal talent in Monroe County to conduct the investigation of what he purports to-be irregularities—WHY? Because of his political aspirations. He calls in a legal rep- resentative from Tampa and one from Miami to handle his investigations. Are we to be PERSECUTED because of the political aspirations of the present acting governor of Florida? There are a number of us in this county who are not qualified “conchs” but we admire these so-called “Conchs” for their building of the Keys and we join them in their endeavor. We came here because we felt that this was the best place in which te live. Many of us who have transplanted ourselves from various sections of the United States, I am sure, regret that we did not grow up here initially. We did not eome here to be embroiled in a political situation contrary to our liking. We want to live here im peace and quiet and to make a decent living. WHY, I am asking you, should we be subjected to the dictates of a glorified GRITS manufacturer from Tampa and to the President of the Miami Chamber of Coommerce who are trying to save all of the business they can for the northern part of Florida? Is This Fair ? How can we have any he has permitted all of this to happen to us?
