difference between the cost of raising

It IL the purpose Of the republicans
to present their bill to the full ways
and means committee and urge the
democrats to accept it. This culmina-
tion probably will not result, as the
democrats under the leadership Of Rep
resentative Underwood intend to write
their own bill Immediately after the
holidays. They will compare the sta
tistics Of the tariff board with figures
of their collection and probably will get

Should the democratic bill pass both
