00:00:01.439 --> 00:00:05.240
<v Speaker 1>We have eighteen degrees and partly sunny skies in Boston.

00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:07.719
<v Speaker 1>It's eleven o'clock is always thanks for tuning in. I'm

<v Speaker 1>Sherry Small and here's what's happening all right, sunny in

00:00:11.199 --> 00:00:12.560
<v Speaker 1>the city for now.

00:00:12.599 --> 00:00:14.919
<v Speaker 2>Call the rest of today some sun giving one a clouds.

6
00:00:14.919 --> 00:00:15.480
<v Speaker 3>I twenty eight.

7
00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:17.519
<v Speaker 2>We'll see about your snow move through the area today.

8
00:00:17.519 --> 00:00:19.719
<v Speaker 2>I think it'd be a slippery inch or two of accumulation.

9
00:00:20.079 --> 00:00:22.719
<v Speaker 1>And that's ac you Weather meteorologist John Ferick. The full

10
00:00:22.760 --> 00:00:26.320
<v Speaker 1>forecast coming up in three to News Now swift reaction

11
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:30.000
<v Speaker 1>from Canada this after President Trump announced yesterday the US

12
00:00:30.079 --> 00:00:34.719
<v Speaker 1>is imposing stiff tariffs on imports from Mexico, Canada, and China.

13
00:00:35.119 --> 00:00:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeaux says that Canada will place

14
00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:41.880
<v Speaker 1>a matching twenty five percent tariffs on up to one

15
00:00:41.960 --> 00:00:45.240
<v Speaker 1>hundred and fifty five billion dollars of US imports, also

16
00:00:46.079 --> 00:00:51.039
<v Speaker 1>expressing a sense of betrayal by a longtime ally. Meanwhile,

17
00:00:51.119 --> 00:00:56.479
<v Speaker 1>Mexican President Claudia Shinbaum also ordering retaliatory tariffs against the US.

18
00:00:56.520 --> 00:01:00.000
<v Speaker 1>No response yet from Beijing to mister Trump's ten percent

19
00:01:00.039 --> 00:01:04.519
<v Speaker 1>and duties placed on all imports from China locally, economists

20
00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:07.640
<v Speaker 1>say expect to see prices jump on some items at

21
00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:08.480
<v Speaker 1>the grocery store.

22
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:11.959
<v Speaker 3>Economists at Claremont Graduate University Ryan Patel says that American

23
00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:15.560
<v Speaker 3>consumers can expect to see this impact costs. When it

24
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:18.480
<v Speaker 3>comes to shoppers, where can they expect to feel this

25
00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:21.480
<v Speaker 3>financial impact the most, well, I definitely can think of

26
00:01:21.760 --> 00:01:22.319
<v Speaker 3>the produce.

27
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:24.959
<v Speaker 2>A lot of our goods here in the US are

28
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:28.799
<v Speaker 2>being produced in other places in Mexico, Canada, China.

29
00:01:28.879 --> 00:01:30.920
<v Speaker 3>He says that businesses should have been planning for the

30
00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.599
<v Speaker 3>possibility that tariffs return, and that hopefully that preparation can

31
00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:37.280
<v Speaker 3>pay off economically. Are you going to react the same

32
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:39.959
<v Speaker 3>way from four years ago or have you planned to

33
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:42.359
<v Speaker 3>kind of take these kind of buffs in the short term.

34
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:44.959
<v Speaker 3>But for people like Suhani, the impact of tariffs on

35
00:01:45.079 --> 00:01:47.280
<v Speaker 3>groceries can make a big difference.

36
00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:51.000
<v Speaker 4>Somebodrizes have changed and they keep changing, and yeah, so

37
00:01:51.079 --> 00:01:55.319
<v Speaker 4>we need to recalculate our budget and our expenses depending

38
00:01:55.319 --> 00:01:56.239
<v Speaker 4>on the new prices.

39
00:01:56.359 --> 00:01:59.400
<v Speaker 3>Hopeful that costs don't spike and the hunt for fairly

40
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:02.159
<v Speaker 3>priced food gets a little easier.

41

<v Speaker 1>Than CBS News Boston's Logan Hall reporting Quincy residents give

51
00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:45.840

52

79
00:04:13.199 --> 00:04:17.399
<v Speaker 1>a historic landmark in Boston, played a big part when

80
00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:19.279
<v Speaker 1>it comes to the history of the toothpick.

81
00:04:19.360 --> 00:04:21.680
<v Speaker 6>Yes, it has chowder and a rich history of politicians

82
00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:23.519
<v Speaker 6>coming in for a bite to eat, but the Union

83
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:26.439
<v Speaker 6>Oyster House also popularized something we all use from time

84
00:04:26.439 --> 00:04:28.000
<v Speaker 6>to time when all the plates have been cleared.

85
00:04:28.040 --> 00:04:30.879
<v Speaker 4>Once the Oyster House started giving out toothpicks and became common.

86
00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:33.360
<v Speaker 6>Practice, Manager Wes Hagen tells me the toothpick was first

87
00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:35.800
<v Speaker 6>used in the United States at the Union Oyster House

88
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:38.759
<v Speaker 6>around eighteen ninety thanks to a curious man from May.

89
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:42.120
<v Speaker 4>Charles Foster, who's from Charlestown in Maine, and he noticed

90
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:44.160
<v Speaker 4>down in Brazil that a lot of the people that

91
00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:45.720
<v Speaker 4>live down there had very clean teeth.

92
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:47.759
<v Speaker 6>When Foster came back to Maine, he opened up a

93
00:04:47.759 --> 00:04:50.920
<v Speaker 6>factory mass producing toothpicks, but no one was buying. So

94
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:51.839
<v Speaker 6>he came up with a plan.

95
00:04:52.040 --> 00:04:55.279
<v Speaker 4>The hired Harvard students and he said, I'll pay for

96
00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:56.759
<v Speaker 4>your lunch, I'll pay for your dinner if you come

97
00:04:56.800 --> 00:04:59.319
<v Speaker 4>into the Oyster House and you make a fuss at

98
00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:01.439
<v Speaker 4>the end of the meal though you don't give out toothpicks.

99
00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:02.839
<v Speaker 4>What kind of establishment is this?

100
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:05.120
<v Speaker 6>And it worked. About a week later, Foster came in

101
00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:08.120
<v Speaker 6>and sold his toothpicks, introducing America to the little wooden

102
00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:12.240
<v Speaker 6>toothpickers in Boston. I'm Afridman, WBZ Boston's News Radio.
