That is the only place it will grow in this country. The Congress gave a support price for this material because it believed that we were going to be dependent upon Russia. It has now developed that we are dependent upon Russia for the excess of our needs over the domestic production.

Therefore. if this were an open rule. if the parliamentary procedure were different here. I would ask this House to impose a duty upon tung oil in this bill.
Identified stereotypes
