Washington, D. c., May 3.-With
the house struggling toward vote on
the free list bill and the senate COM
mittee on finance hearing arguments
on Canadian reciprocity today signal
lied the real beginning of the tariff
fight Of the extra session. Hitherto
consideration of tariff legislation prac-
tically had been confined to the house.
By an agreement reached yesterday
by the senate finance committee, OBJ
jections are not confined to the reci-
procity measure solely, but because of
it's intimate relationship to the entire
question, are extended to include the
free list measure. Hearings will ex-
tend throughout next week.
The Senate was not in session today
but will be tomorrow.
