Fight For Free Wood Pulp And
Print Paper Is On

Washington, June 1.-THE fight to
place wood pulp and print paper upon
the free list was opened up in the
senate today under the leadership OF
Senator Brown of Nebraska. Going
over to the portion Of the chamber il
which Senators Aldrich, Hale, Frye,
Lodge Gallinger, Smoot and other
leaders have their seats, the Nebraskan
stood in the midst Of the opposing
force and with good nature parted
thrusts that came to him from ali
quarters as he delivered q telling
speech in behalf of the cause he had
espoused.
Showing familiarity with all avail
able information on the wood pulp
and print paper schedule, Mr.. Brown
frequently quoted from various author
tiles to sustain his contention that
wood pulp and print paper are both
produced in the United States with
cheaper labor and cheaper material,
resulting in cheaper product than
can be obtained in Canada,
Turning to his republican colleagues
he asked them how in view of that
fact, they could justify a duty on
these products for the protection of
labor. -
Senator Aldrich and Senator Hale
fatty contradicted these statements
in reference to wages and cost of pro-
duction. They insisted that the Mann
committee Of the house of representa-.
tives from which Mr.. Brown quoted,
was lacking in accurate testimony and
contended that, even if so, the report
could not be maintained that the
United States had an advantage in
production. This dispute ran along for
two hours.
There was a large attendance OF
democrats. Senator Tillman asked
how it was that newspapers advocating
protective tariff desire free trade
in the materials they used.
''They are hulnbugs, the South
Carolinian declared.
Senator Bailey suggested that an
amendment should be drawn giving
the benefit Of free paper to free trade
papers and levying duty on paper
used by protective tariff journals.
Mr.. Brown still held the floor when
the senate adjourned, earlier than
usual, to permit democratic
caucus. He will resume consideration
Of his amendment for free trade to-
morrow.
The senate adopted the schedule
placing a lower duty than is provided
either by the Dingley law or the house
bill.
Because Of intense competition by
German manufacturers, the duty on
illustrated postcards was increased
1926 per cent above the Dingley law.
The schedules relating to litho-
graphic papers, calendars, cigar bands
and such products were adopted.

BAILEY TALKS ON INCOME TAX
DENIES THAT HIS BILL WOULD
MAKE "a NATION OF LIARS"
Appeals to Senate to "Ask for a Re-
hearing" In Supreme Court by
Passing Bill.

Senator Bailey of Texas concluded his
two-day speech in favor of his Income
tax amendment to the tariff bill yester-
day a few minutes before the Senate ad-
journed. He devoted the afternoon to an
attempt to show that the income tax was
constitutional. and that in deciding other
wise about the law Of 1894 the Supreme
Court had gone counter to an unbroken
line of decisions for the past century.
Under the circumstances he appealed to
the Senate to TASK for rehearing' by
enacting another such law.
People Would Not Lie.
Denying that he had drawn measure
that would make the country "a nation
of liars" the Texan said:
II will not insult the American people
by repeating that charge. but l will repel
it as an unwarranted reflection upon our
people. 1 do not think a self-respecting
American citizen will lie to escape the
payment of a tax, and If l should find a
