After working in Washington for
nearly three weeks at what proved
10 be one OF the longest and most ardu-
Gus tasks ever experienced In tariff
building. the majority members OF the
conference committee on the Payne
Aidrich bill brought their labors 10
sudden close and the senate and house
leaders. whose names are carried by
the bill. took their report to President
Taft.
The conferees made lumber dutiable
al rates only a little below those
named by the senate bill. and there
was a very slight shading from the
house rates on gloves OF good quality.
Although II is not admitted the gener'
al impression is that Aldrich and
Payne have been authorized TO incor-
porate In the conference report such
figures as could be agreed upon with
the president.
Rate OF s1.4o on Lumber.
II was announced officially that the
Democratic members OF the conference
committee would be called into session
today II was stated also that the con-
ference report would be presented to
the house probably at noon tomorrow
Advocates OF dollar lumber called on
President Taft and were quoted as say
ing that he had said that II the rate
were fixed al more than $1.25 per
thousand feet he would object When
this report was received at the capitol
some OF the senators from timber
states declared that they would not
permit the adoption OF the conference
report II the lumber duties were forced
down 10 1925 Undoubtedly these
threats influenced the conferees. FOR
when the roll was called by the two
conference committees the representa-
tives OF each branch gave a majority
for the s1.40 rate.
