TAFT FACES CRISIS
IN CONGRESS
PRESIDENT MAY HAVE TO
"RENEG" IN HIS POLICIES BE-
FORE SESSIONS CLOSE.

Washington, July 15.-If Senators
Smoot and Crane, republicans, and
Williams, democrat. prove true pro-
phets, President Taft Will have to solve
one of the hardest problems of his ad-
ministration before the adjournment
of the special session of congress. Ac-
cording to these three senators. all of
whom talked with the president today,
the senate, through a combination of
democrats and insurgents, will pass the
La Toilette amendment revising the
wool schedule of the present tariff.
The house has already passed a wool
bill which differs materially from that
drawn by Senator La Toilette, but ac-
cording to the same unofficial pro-
phets, 1t would accept the latter mea-
sure rather than get no bill at all. Pres
ident Taft, 1t is pointed out, would
then be face to face with one of the
most difficult questions that has come
before him He has called the wool
schedule "indefensible." The tariff
board has promised to furnish data for
a scientific revision of that schedule by
December, and in many later speeches
the president has declared that he OPP
posed any revision not based upon the
| investigation of the board He has
| placed himself in opposition to what
| he terms "unscientific" and "haphaz-
ard" tariff "tinkerng," indicating
plainly that he would prefer congress
to wait until the tariff board has made
its report.
The president, 1t was said today, has
conceded to few people his future
course of action il the wool revision bill
should be put up to him. 1t Is be-
lieyed now, however, that he Would
veto the La Toilette bill and his veto
message make a defense to the coun-
try for such action.
i 1t was said late today that the reg
ular republicans might make an effor
to counteract the effect of the move
ment by introducing bill of theil
own, but they have little hope of sue.
