ADVICE GIVEN CONGRESS
THE NATIONAL LEAGUE SUBMITS
STATEMENT ON TARIFF.
Establishment of Permanent Bureau
by the Government Favored-Busi-
ness Men and the Tariff-EXperts.

WASHINGTON, March 2.-The Ma
tional Business Mems League, com
posed of non-partisan business men
throughout the United States, has sub
mitted to the Ways and Means Com
mittee through John w Ella of the
Chicago General Council a statement
embodying the views of the league
with regard to the kind of tariff law
they thing should be enacted. Auxil-
larry counsels of the league are being
formed rapidly in various States, and
the membership already includes more
than 1000 prominent and successful
business men.
In the memorial they say: "While
we understand that it is your inten-
ton by this revision to obtain more
revenue and to protect American labor
we ask that its benefits and its bur
dens be spread as equally as possible
and so as to foster general rather than
special interests. We believe that the
country has now had sufficient eXper-
fence with tariffs to furnish a basis
upon which reVisions may be made
more scientifically than heretofore. We
will furnish you statistics as soon as
we are able to get them into proper
form.
THE league being in favor of tax.
ing the tariff out of politics, favors the
establishment of a new department OF
| the Government, to be designated as
the Department of Commerce and In
dustry, and of tariff bureau in that
department, which, after the present
revision, shall investigate and report
on all complicated changes in the tar
if before action by Congress; and we
believe that this bureau should be
composed of non-partsan experts Of
such character and reputation thai
their report on each schedule or sub
ject investigated by them, will be con
elusive as to facts and influential il
decision.
''In such cases there would be few
occasions for general revisons of thu
tariff which accompany the periodical
upsetting of the business of the coun
try for months before and afterward
and the tariff would gradually becom,
a matter of economic science"
