Intimates That Ways and Means
Committee Is Using It's Influence
for an Upward Revision Of the
Tariff Van Cleave Favors Reduc-
ton Of Certain Rates.

st. Louis. Mo-, Nov. 26. Regard
ing the tariff hearings before the
ways and means committee at Wash
ington, James Van Cleave, presi-
dent OF the National Association OF
Manufacturers gave out the follow
ing statement to-day: Several
strange things connect themselves
with these hearings. I am told that
only about 100 out Of $50, 1000 heads
Of factories In the country received
notice to appear before the commit
tee. In most cases the notice which
they received was too short to allow
them to put carefully prepared state
ments, although all OF them have the
privilege Of submitting briefs at any
time prior to December. The hear
lings, which will close December a,
will have covered only about three
weeks in the aggregate. The ques-
tions put by leading members OF the
committee to these manufacturers
are admirably calculated to call out
answers asking for the retention OF
the present rates of duties or adj
vances In them.
DO you not believe that your
present duties should be maintain-
led /? is the usual inquiry Scarcely ever
Is it put thus: Do you think your
sales should be reduced ~ Eastern
papers state that under this, seduc-
tive coaching one manufactures who
had duty OF 80 per cent. on his
product, and who acknowledges that
he has a profit on 1t, asks to have
the duty Increased to 40 per cent,
and wants to have the duty taken
Loft materials which he uses in his
factory, thus giving him a chance
to swell his profits in two directions.
One or two manufacturers who asked
for lower duties on their wares

gasp.
presume that the committee
aims to get, through these hearings,
Information on which 1t can base a

lican party declared for revision at
