TAFT Discusses Situation.

Washington, March 29.-President
Taft talked today with Senator Hale,
Representative Dalzell of Pennsylvan-
ia, and Representative Hinshaw of Ne
braska, and John Barrett, director of
the bureau of American republics. 1t is
said the president is letting it be un-
derstood that he strongly favors a re-
duction of the tariff or all necessities
of life.
The Payne bill repeatedly has been
attacked in the house debate as impos-
ing too heavy burden upon the poor
and as favoring the richer classes. The
impression that has been created by
so much of this talk has ben anything
but gratifying to the administration, 1t
is declared, and matters have not been
greatly improved by the criticism that
too much consideration appears to be
in prospect for the special interests
and not enough for the consuming
public The president has no infor-
nation in support Of such charge.
Taft is known to be strongly opposed
to the proposed tax on tea, and also
is said to believe the ways and means
committee of the house will not insist
upon the cou.nervailing duty pro-
posed on coffe
