RUSSIAN SUGAR MUST PAY Suprems Oourt Decides That Muscovites Bestow Beunty on Producers COUNTERVAILING DUTY RIGHTLY LEVIED Dingley Law Operates to Keep Out Product Privie " Accorded Special w Atd Exporters. leges by Government Strives t handed down by Justice Brown today the | United States supreme court decides in the Bownes case that the money paid by the Russian government on sugar exported is a bounty and that the collector of customs at New York was justified in levying a coun- tervalling duty on Russian sugar under the | terms of the Dingley law. The case came to the supreme court on & writ of certiorari brought to test rulings of the lower court and ot the board of gen- eral appralsers holding a cargo imported into Baltimore from Russia to be subject to a countervalling duty liable upon merchan- dise upon which a bounty is paid on west- ern transportation. The court today cor.- firmed these rulings. Justice Brown said under Russia’s method of fostering its sugar industry which could be sold in Russia at the nor- mal excise of 175-100 roubles per pound might be exported under a permit from the excise office upon the return of a free sugar certificate with the custom house export mark, the excise then crediting the ex- ported quantity of sugar to the free surplus of the mill which is subject to the double | tax of 1.75 roubles l Discusaing the effect of this certificate, | Justice Brown said In practice the market value of these laims must vary according to the demand and supply, but the theory underlyirg the transaction is always this, that the ex porter shall suffer no loss because he has cxported his free sugar instead of sellll it In the home market. It is practically ad- mitted in this case that a bounty equal to the value of these certificates is pald | by the Russlan government. and the l“l("‘ rgument of the petitioner I= addressed to the proposition that this bounty is )-lhl.l not apon exportation. but upon production. The answer to this Is that every bounty [ upon exportation must to a certain extent | operate as a bounty upon production, since | nothing can be exported which is not pro- duced and since a bounty upon exporta- | tlon, by creating a forelgn demand, stimu- | lntes an Increased production to the extent | f such demand. Consequently the bounty on production operates to a certaln extent | as a bounty upon exportation, since it opens | to the manufacturer a certain markt for his merchandise produced In excess of de- mand at home.
