That support price is in effect today. and yet. we are permitting the shipment of more than 50 percent of the tung oil used in this country largely from Communistdominated China. free of duty. It is unthinkable that we should permit these oil brokers to bring this Communist oil from China into this country at opportune moments so as to run the market down below the support price that Congress provided for domestic oil. It simply does not make sense that one agency of the Government should reach into the taxpayers pocket to pay the support price on domestically produced oil and at the ame time another agency of the Government should permit this foreign oil. produced by Communistdominated coolie labor. to be imported and dumped upon the market so as to run the price of the domestic oil down. Mr. Chairman.
