COMMITTEE AT OUTS
OVER TARIFF BILL
Utmost Harmony Does Not Prevail Among Members
Who Are Struggling Through Maze of Figures
To Frame Successor TO Dmgley Measure

Despite the secrecy with which the
Hon. Serene Z. Payne, chairman of the
House Ways and Means Committee, IS
conducting the meetings at which new
tariff bill Is being framed to supplant
the much-abused law which was worked
into shape by Dingley, the interesting
fact has leaked out through the locked
doors that AL is not harmony within.
The fact OF the matter is that most
of the members are struggling through
a maze of figures, framing up trial
schedules, putting up the bars here and
lowering them there without feeling
certain in their own minds that they
are hitting the nail squarely on the
head.
The principal trouble. so it is learned,
seems to be that after the prolonged
public hearings. after thousands OF let
tiers have been read telling what ought
20 be done with the various schedules
as they now exist, a considerable ma
jority of the committee is at a loss T.
know how TO proceed. On the commit
tee at the present time are just two
men who have had experience in franz
ing a tariff bill namely, Chairman
Payne and John DalZell, Of Pennsyl-
vania. Mr. Payne knows the Dingley
tariff from A to I. and Mr. DalzeIl has
a fund Of knowledge on the same sub
ject.
The difficulty, however. is that the
younger members on the committee are
showing a disposition to take some
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1909-01-30

active part in the framing Of the Payne
BILL and, with all due respect TO the two
veterans, they want 20 know why
changes should be made and why they
should not be. The present condition OF
affairs IS such that the word of these
two leaders must prevail, or little VIII
BE- accomplished, and as the country IS
demanding real tariff revision, the work
must necessarily devolve upon the eX-
perienCed men.
The situation is such that one member
Of the committee has taken pairs to
voice his protest at the manner IL which
the Ways and Means Committee is CON
Quoted.
''At the present time" said this mem
Der, we are working on the new bill
from $3.50 in the morning until o'clock
in the afternoon. We are endeavOring
to accomplish IN a few weeks work that
has been accommodating for ten wears.
The manner IN which the Ways and
Means Committee has been conducted
in the past IS all wrong. The committee
never really gets down to work on
seriously discusses the merits of the
various schedules until il is about 10
frame a new bill. When that decision
is reached il means an everlasting grind
until the bill is finally brought into the
House, and IN the circumstance it does
not represent the best efforts Of the
committee. Why? Simply because the
committee has been out Of touch. That
statement will be challenged, but it is
a fact nevertheless.
THE committee should meet as regu-
larry as any other committee in the
House. It should keep in constant touch
with the business situation at home and
abroad. The hearings, Of course, were
a necessity"
