Many congressman believe with Pres

ment should not be adopted unless it
can be shown that it is needed to pro-
duce revenue. Members of the finance
committee declare that the Payne bin

yield sufficient revenues. II the truth
of this statement is established it viii

Few of the most ardent supporters of
the income tax proposition are willing
to delay the adjournment of congress
in face of the attitude assumed by the
president and the protests that are
pouring in upon congress from COM
mercial centers against a prolonged
discussion of the tariff.
