tended to Kill Time.
Many people are expecting that the
new tariff board will help to throw light
upon the necessity of the present high
schedules. Let them not place their
expectations too high, however The
tariff board was not intended to be any
thing but n powerless, useless thing
an empty device to appease the anger
Of the people. The tariff board has no
power to take testimony, administer
Oaths or compel the production of
books and documents. All such pow
ers were denied it in the conference
bill which finally passed the house.
Their function as there stated simply
is:
ITO secure information to assist the
president in the discharge of the du-
ties imposed upon him by this section
and the officers of the government in
the administrat ton of the customs
laws
Narrow administrative functions are
all that are here meant. The last thing
in the minds of the trainers of the
present tariff was that their work
should be liable to disturbance ny such
a tribunal as this. But it now suits

board is a real. live thing and THAI
