New System
Outlined —
On Exports |

Notice was received from Ot-
tawa today by the local Chamber
of Commerce that a new pro-
cedure is to be adopted in the

') United Stateg to assist Canadian

exporters in making shipments

;| to that country.

As outlined by the U.S. cus-
toms bureau, the new system
will enable Canadian exporters
to:

(1) Ascertain in advance of
shipping their goods the rate of
duty payable on importation
through any port of entry in the
U.S. and the approximate valu-
ation on which it will be assess-
ed.

(2) Discuss with a qualified cus-
toms expert the various compli-
cations of U.S. methods of ap-
praisal and valuation in an ef-

fort to solve their particular
problems. ,
For further information on

these points, exporters are. ask-
ed to write the department of
trade and commerce at Ottawa,

In commenting. onthe new
method, the department said in

 

1956 to fall in line with the $31,-
200 budeect alloted by the city
council under its annual rate by-
law.

The current budget represents
a drop of more than $22,000 from
the $53,861 in estimates prepared
by the Parks Board in April.

Major culs were made in al-
‘lorations for work at Algoma
and MeClymont parks,
