Excerpt from Bulletin of the National Association of Wool Manufacturers, 1912, Vol. 42 In connection with the forty-seventh annual meeting of the National Association of Wool Manufacturers, a luncheon was served to the officers and members of the Association at Young's Hotel, Boston, at 1 P.M. on February 7, 1912, and the business meeting followed. Mr. John P. Wood, of Philadelphia, the President of the Association, in his informal address thanked the members of the Association for the honor of reelection, and spoke of the prospect of tariff legislation at the present session of Congress in Washington. The Tariff Board report, he said, had influenced the majority of the National House to hesitate. No progress had been made by the minority of the House in framing an alternative bill, so far as was known. The entirely new basis of levying the raw wool duty, recommended in the Tariff Board report, had increased the difficulty of framing the draft of a new schedule. The country at large did not comprehend how formidable a task this was. The real present task before the manufacturers of the Association was to ascertain what would be proper compensatory duties to conform with the proposed new system of wool duties.
