concisely their position and the obJece
in view. 1t follows:
1--WE recommend the establish
ment Of the tariff board. We ap-
prove OF the construction which
President Taft has placed upon Its
powers and duties. We believe,
however. that there should be further
legislation, to define clearly the
mowers and duties of such board
and make 1t permanent, lnoepen-
dent, expert tariff commission, the
function of which shall be to dis
cover and report to congress from
time to time such facts and sta
tistics as will enable congress TO
amend the tariff law intelligently
and scientifically according to the
principle of protection. We believe
that such changes should be made
in the rules of the house of repre-
sentatives and of the senate of the
limited States as may be necessary
to make practicable the amendment
of the tariff, one schedule at
time.'
