Makes a Vigorous Protese
Against N1isre representation. !,
REVISION SHOULD NOT DELAY
Oorrscts Newspaper Report -Ssta
Forth His Views on Plan Of Max
ing Tariff Schedule.

New York, Special.-President-
elect Taft made vigorous protest
Friday night against what he said
was an absolute misrepresentation in
certain New York afternoon papers
as to what he had said during the day
IN answering questions regarding
tariff revision.
He had stated, he said, that the
present business depression was un-
doubtedly due in large measure to
the fact that the tariff is to be revis-
cd at an extra session Of Congress to
meet March 18th; that it was Of the
highest Importance that this work Of
revision should not be delayed, hut
executed with all possible diligence.
Mr.. Taft also said he favored the
idea of q permanent tariff commits
sion, the plan for which. should be
worked out with delibration, the du-
ties Of such a commission to be to
make a careful study of the operation
Of the proposed new tariff Jaw, to tho
end that suggestions might be made
In the future which would tend to
place the whole stiioi o9 the taxiR
on more certain and scientific basis.
