So many disturbing reports have been
made as 10 the effect Of disputed points
I'm the new tariff law that Secretary
Carlisle. 1t is said. will make public an
official statement as to his understanding
of it's provisions. 1t is well understood in
the Treasury that the Secretary will con-
strue disputed provisions in a liberal way
In accordance with the manifest intent OF
Congress not taking advantage of quib-
bles based upon mistakes of punctuation
but keeping in view the purpose OF the
lawmakers.
Speaker Crisp is quoted as saying that
he feels very certain that the tariff bill
win become a law. He does not expect
the President 10 sign II. He thinks II
will become law without the Executive
Signature. and that Congress will adjourn
within an hour after this fact becomes
known to the members and senator's.
