Speeding 10 the south, 1t burned its

Senate Tariff Program.

Washington. President Taft was
informed Friday of the Senate pro-
gram for the administration OF the new
tariff bill.
II provides that a minimum tariff
shall apply to all countries for one
year. At the end OF that time the max
imum rates will go into effect against
all countries which, in the opinion of
the President. are not giving the
United States their best tariff rates.
The difference between the mini
mum and maximum rates will be 20
percent.
Il is planned that for nine months or
one year the minimum rate shall ap-
ply to all countries, without disinc-
tion or discrimination.
At the end OF this period the maxi
mum rates automatically will go into
effect against all countries which in
the opinion of the executive are not
giving the United States their most
favored nation clauses.
II, in the general inquiry which
will be made during the probation
ary" period. the President finds that
certain nations are discriminating
against the United States he will mere
ly refrain from issuing a proclama-
tioa regarding these countries and the
maximum rate henceforth will apply
TO them.
This plans gives to the executive
complete power Of inquiry and deci-
sions. The Supreme Court Of the Unit
ed States in a case involving the con-
stitutionality Of the Mckinley tariff
act, decided that Congress, by similar
methods of administration, was in no
wise delegating its authority to the
executive.
President Taft, 1t is understood.
strongly favors this idea of applying
the maximum and minimum principle
and 1t is believed that 1t will finally
be agreed upon.
