Will Be That Enacted at the
Coming Extra Session
of Congress.
EXPERTS ON TARIFF
To Form a Commission in the
Future Are Certainly
Needed He States.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. IL

1NDIANAPoLIs, Ind. Feb. IT,
Senator Albert j. Beveridge today
addressed the Tariff convention. He
said in part:
Within less than four months a
new tariff will have hsen made. I
hope and believe 1t will be the best
tariff that congress has ever CON
structed. 1t will be historic In this:
that 1t will be the last American
tariff created without the aid of a
tariff. commission. commission to-
get facts and make classiacations
for congress, and not to Ak duties.
which is the exclusive business OF
congress.
Immediate revision must not be
delayed until tariff commission Is
created and has made necessary In
vestigations and arranged scientific
classifications-that would require
at least two years and ought to take
a longer period. So, for the last
time. We must have tarlr build
ed in the old way. But That this
shall be the last tariff thus builded.
We soon must provide a commission
of tariff experts. The present emer-
gency must never be faced again.
Tariff Building ON Isusiness Basis.
Heretofore both parties have
builded our tariffs without sufficient
knowledge of the facts, without sol
entific classification OF the schedules.
Both parties. whether framing a.
so-called revenue tariff or nro-
tectiye tariff, have handled this in
trtcate subject in d way which would
have crippled any business man or
corporation ilxndling their enter
prises in the same fashion. Bod,
parties have made the tariff exclu-
sively political; have waged cam
'paigns as to whether our tariff pol
icy should be on the pro-
tective or revenue basis; work pre-
paratory to revision has been delay
ed until the people have ordered Inn
mediate revision; and SO. finally, a
new tariff has been rushed through
without time or ability to get facts
without either the technical knowl-
edge or scientific skill to make
clasifications.
Other Commissions.
Except upon the tariff. congress
has; seen the wisdom Of a comrnnis-
sion Of experts to examine all sorts
Of subjects and report to congress.
Yet the tariff is more difficult, intri-
cate and far-reaching than all other,
present ecoomic problems combined.
excepting only the problem Of cur.
fency and banking. IN currency and
(. Danking congress has acknowledged
mat dt cannot wisely legislate until
a commission shall have spent years
