21 The revenue act of 1916 divided coal-tar products into three groups-crudes, intermediates, and finished or partly finished products and imposed special duties in addition to the regular duties, which special duties ran for 5 years and ceased a year before the tariff act of 1922 took effect.

The emergency tariff act of 1921, Title V, provided that, for a period of 3 months, certain coal-tar products should be denied entry or delivered from customs custody unless the Secretary of the Treasury should determine that the particular article or satisfactory substitute was not obtainable in the United States or in any of its possessions in sufficient quantities and on reasonable terms as to quality, price, and delivery, and that such article in the quantity to be admitted was required for consumption by an actual consumer in the United States or in any of its possessions within 6 months after receipt of the merchandise.

22 Provided, That for a period of two years, beginning on the day following the passage of this Act, the ad valorem rate of duty shall be 55 per cent instead of 40 per cent.
