BORAH CONTINUES
INCOME TAX SPEECH
Idaho Senator Considers a
Length the Question on
ConStitutionality.

Senator Borah Of Idaho continued his
speech in support of an income tax,
when the Senate met at II O'Clock this
morning.
Senator Bsrah devoted his attention
TO the constitutional side of the ques-
ton, and went deeply into the Pollock
case in the Supreme Court, and other
income tax cases. He also devoted at
tentfon to the historical side Of the
question and TO what the trainers Of
the Constitution had in mind when they
fixed the language Of that instrument
with respect TO the ieYying Of direct
taxes.
Senator Borah, as was the case yes
terday, was freely questioned by various
Senator's. Senator Sutherland at one
stage Of his speech asked Senator BOrah
whether a tax on buildings OF twelve
stories and over would be a direct tax
They are improvements on real estate,
said he.
If the buildings were part Of the real
estate I should say they would be sub
jects of d'rect taxation said Senator
Borahs brit do not believe the framer.
Of the Constitution regarded such things
as practical subjects of direct taxation.
Senator Borah began his argument FOL
an income tax yesterday afternoon

BRADLEY ARGUES
FOR A HEMP DUTY
Says Nearly Every State in
the Union Can Raise
1t.

In the first speech he has made IN
the Senate, Senator W. o. Bradley OF
Kentucky today pleaded for an amend
ment to the Aldrich tariff bill for a duty
of IA cenf5 a pound on jute or Indian
hemp.
Senator Bradley declared that nearly
every GCa.te in the Union could grow
hemp Successfully and was therefore
interested in the proposed duty.
1T has been demonstrated by actual
experience in the last 1--WE years that
hemp may be successfully grown in
Pennsylvania, Indiana, Wisconsin,
Michigan. Minnesota, and Kansas, and
we are informed by high and unques-
toned authority that it may he sue
cessfully grown in limestone soil any
where in the Mississippi valley, as well
as at many points along the Pacific
coast; in fact, in almost every State in
the Union"
Senator Bradley illumined his remarks
by exhibiting 10 the Senate photographs
OF hemp fields In Kentucky, Pennsyl-
vania, and other States. He also pre-
sented other photographs. showing the
character OF labor employed abroad by
the manufacturers of jute. He said
these photographs presented an gu
u-cul more lDaCtAul lAd-n dAlg NpIuS
that might be uttered.
Senator Bradley denounced as a
shameful injustice" the giving OF pro-
lection to the American manufacturer
Of jute and at the same time denial of
protection 10 the producer of hemp. He
declared this was "a travesty on pro-
tectian." He described how the fax in
dustry of America was seriously suf-
fering by reason OF the importation of
free Jute, and how the hemp and fax
Industry could be built UP and expanded
with proper protection.
Senator Bradley gave his remarks a
political turn by describing the struggles
of the Republicans in Kentucky against
great disadvantages
Give us fair protection in Kentucky -
| he said, and 1 promise you. Mr.. Pres
ident, that in a short time II shall be-
como as certainly Republican as the
great State of Massachusetts"
OF the South generally he said: THE
South needs protection on her lumber.
coal, iron. resin. turpentine, fiuorspar.
hemp, tobacco. and other articles
''If we desire to be just, let us pro-
tect all these interests. II we desire to
build up the Republican party In the
South, let US show that we are willing
TO build up the inter. 5ts Of that sec
ton"

Attacks Wool Duty.


"A curious proceeding this" continued
Dolliver, and unless we can look into
II without fear and trembling we must
ultimately rewrite our Constitution so
as 10 legalize this power Of experts from
The cUstomhouse 10 regulate commerce
with foreign nations"
Senator Dolliver then attacked the
woolen schedules. He sketched briefly
what he termed "the origin and grad
ual Justification OF the tariff on wooden
goods" He pointed out the excesses
into which Congress has been led in
fixing these rates." and the "trickerfcs
that In the course OF half century have
found a hiding place throughout the
wooden schedule" He stated that many
manufacturers had sought refuge IN
Schedule K, the wooden tariff, and had
tried 10 get shelter under its slippery
provisions for silks. furs, cottons, rub
ber goods, and even furniture
BY getting such articles classified as
woolens, the higher rates Of duty car
ried by Schedule x were imposed. In
this connection. he gave several lu-
dicrous examples as, for Instance, OF a
cargo OF scrap rubber that had been
classified by reason Of some trace Of
wool into the woolen schedule, and had
TO be exported under the drawback
clause on being confronted with S0
per cent duty.
