WOOL. GROWERS APPEAL
Urge Taft to Stand Firm Against

Ion M Trlbune Hnreau.

Washington. July 3l.-The widespread
publication of the fact that President Taft
will veto any tariff measures bearing on
the woollen schedule sent to him by Con-
gress before the Tariff Board has made its
report has brought letters from every sec
ton of the country urging him to remain
firm in his stand and saying he will be up
held by the American people.

There can be no better evidence or the
need of a tariff board than the hastily ana

opportunity TO present their case 10 the
