Mr. Van schaick presented a protest from the
Executive Board Of the Knights Of Labor Of
Milwaukee against the bills passage On
motion of Hatch an amendment was adopted
allowing retail dealers in oleomargarine to
pack the compound in paper packages. Worth.
ington thought congress had as much right to
tax oleomargarine as It had TO tax whisky or
tobacco; but II the taxing power was used to
crush the manufacture OF oleomargarine 1t was
an indefensible action on the part Of congress.
Townshend offered an amendment reducing
the tax on pound Of olemargarine from 10
to 2 cents. McCrary moved to fix the rate at
cents Rejected. Glass moved to fix 1t at
