They were: ‘That automobile parts not made in ‘Canâ€" ada are to. be admitted duty free; that the $1,200 maximum valuation at. whichâ€"cars are to enjoy the low 20 per cent. duty is not to include used:carg; and that there will be no lifting of the sales and luxury U; from the automobile industry; and instead of the 50 per cent Canadian labor requirement to secure theâ€"25 per cent drawback on materials, for one year only the drawback will be forthcoming‘if 40 per cent of the car is made in Canada.
