Washington, D. c., July "a
Senator Cummins Of Iowa, who is
the leader among the progress
s1ve' senators, today took break
fast with the president and spent
two hours with him in discussing
the tariff situation. They went
over the entire ground and it is
understood they found themselves
to be very much in accord. Mr..
Cummins spoke for the coterie Of
ten senators who voted against
the Payne-Aldrich bill as 1t passed
the senate. He assured the presi-
dent of the continued adherence
OF those senators to the policy of
lower tariff and was told in re-
turn that the president was losing
no opportunity to impress the
wisdom of such a course upon
senators and members of the
house. Senator Cummins will to-
night give out statement regard
ing the attitude of the progress
sives." He will say that it is not
necessary for all free raw mater
ial that the progressively de-
mand, but rather general lowering
