CUMMINS' UNAVAILING EFFORT
Tries to Have the Items Separated
From <he Rest of the
Paragraph.
CUMM1Ns' UNAvAILING EFFORT

After sharp debate that lasted about
two hours this morning the Senate adopt
ed the finance committees rate of 81. &c
ton on pig iron, wrought and cast
iron and scrap iron and steel. on viva
voce vote. This is ,le same as the House
rate. except that scrap iron and steel
were made dutable in the House bill at
only 30 cents a ton.
Senator Cummns of Iowa tried hard
to get the Senate to separate scrap iron
and steel from the rest of the paragraph
but his amendment for this purpose was
defeated. os to A.
The republicans who voted in the affirm
ative were Beveridge, Bristow, Brown.
Crawford, du Pont. Cummins, Curtis,
Doiiiver, Gamble, La Toilette and Mel
son. The following democrats voted with
the committee: Bankhead and Johnston
OF Alabama. Foster and McEnery of
Louisiana, Tillman of South Carolina and
Ia ylor of Tennessee
Mr.. Cummins then moved to reduce the
rate from $50 to $50 ton. and failed
oy a vote of 26 to -. This time more re-
publicans voted yes and more demo-
Gratis no The republicans supporting
the reduction were Beveridge. Borah, Bris-
tow. Brown. Burkett, Crawford Cummins
Curtis, Dolliver. Gamble. La Toilette and
Nelson. and the democrats supporting the
committee were Bankhead, Daniel. John
ston, McEnery, Martin, Taylor and Till
man.
Adopted Without Roll Call.
The vote was taken at once on the
committees proposal. and it went through
without roll call.
During the debate Sena tor Aldrich was
aided in defending the committees rate
by Senators Oliver OF Pennsylvania. Dick
and Burton of Ohio. and Smoot of Utah
On the other side Senators Beveridge of
Indiana. Cummins of Iowa and Crawford
OF South Dakota took active part
Mr.. Aldrich claimed that 1t was i'm
possible to find an accurate definition of
scrap which would prevent the impor-
tation OF pigiron broken up purposely.
This was positively denied by Mr. Cum
minis. who straightway gave one, which,
however, failed to satisfy Mr.. Aldrich.
Aldrich's Reference Repelled.
When Mr.. Beveridge came to the
Iowan's support Mr.. Aldrich sneeringly
referred to him as Mr.. Cummins '.repre-
sentative"
Instead of shedding light on this ques-
tion. retorted Mr.. Beveridge, the sen
ator from Rhode Island makes offensive
references to senator's
Mr.. Beveridgc denied he was anybody's
representative.
Mr.. Crawford injected little fire into
the proceedings by informing the Sen
ate that the fact that no distinction had
been made In former bills between scrap
and pig iron was no reason in his mind
for making none now.
Are we expected he demanded, TO
vote for thing because it was in a
fossilzed bill Of a past generationo Have
we made no advance in all these years?"
Mr.. Aldrich srinned, but made no re-
sponse.
