Mr.. Tawney had made it clear at the
start that he felt bound to support the
president in his effort to pass the bill,
owing to the fight the president had
made for satisfactory report
The tariff bill as 1t came from the
conference committee was not salts
factory to the majority of the delega-
ton. They did not believe 1t repre-
sented as genuine and general revi-
sion as the people had been promised.
1t is not improbable, however, that
under the influence of the president,
majority of the Minnesota members
would have voted for the report had
not the conference committee made so
many direct determinations against
schedules, sections and administrative
features of the bill in which Mime
sofa was vitality interested.
The first vote Of Importance was on
the motion to recommit the bill to
the conference committee.
Many members voted for this, be-
lieving that the bill could be i'm
proved if sent back to the committee
The house organization defeated this
motion by only five votes, the vote
being 1856 for it and 1911 against. The
motion to adopt the conference re
port followed, the house organization
winning by a majority Of IL.

of the day was by Mr.. Mann Qll.)
