II is admitted. however. that If the scheme
were practical one the Government would pos
sess a sure safeguard against prospective losses
of revenue on what may be styled heavy antici-
patory importations at existing low rates or free
of air duty. and that an immediate and much
needed stimulus would be given TO many domes
tic industries which are now lanGuishing or in
condition of prostration But the insurmountabie
difficulty is the attitude of the Senate. That BODY
in this Congress refused even TO consider the
Dingley bill. which proposed TO restore ~ per
cent of the rates Of the Act Of 1880 in certain
schedules. and to increase other rates ID per cent
above those of the Act of 1894. II that bill had

The Senate refused even TO consider the mild
provisions of the Dingley bill. which was only
temporary measure. and how could it be ex-
pected to accept or even TO consider a temporary
measure Of more radical nature?" asked a
prominent and influential member of the House
