- From Dow-Jones:
-
- If Commerce revokes its July 1991 ruling that U.S. industry faced unfair
- competition from Japanese screen manufacturers, the decision would effectively
- bring an end to the ITC's deliberations and any further action.
-
- U.S. manufacturers supporting an end to the duties include International
- Business Machines Corp., Apple Computer Inc., Compaq Computer Corp, and
- OIS Optical Imaging Systems Inc.
-
- The companies argue that tariffs will drive up the price of U.S. computers
- and force them to move some of their production abroad where duties wouldn't
- be applied.
