WOOD ALCOHOL TARIFF INCREASED BY PRESIDENT. An increase in the tariff on methanol or synthetic wood alcohol from 12 to 18 cents a gallon was ordered by President Coolidge, Nov. 27, 1926, upon representations made to him by the Tariff Commission that the advance was made necessary to equalize the difference in manufacturing costs bere and abroad, notably Germany, the principal competing country in this product. The principal uses of refined methanol, the grade which competes with the synthetic methanol imported from Germany, is in the manufacture of formaldehyde, which, in turn, is used in the manufacture of synthetic phenolic resins and coal-tar dyes. Refined methanol is also used as a solvent in the manufacture of pyroxylin plastics, such as celluloid. The only company producing synthetic methanol in Germany refused representatives of the Tariff Commission access to their cost records.. The weighted average invoice price of methanol imported during 1925 was 48.12 cents per gallon, c. 1. f. New York.
