BRYAN FINDS FAULT
WITH HOUSE
DEMOCRATS
SCORES ADVOCATES OF
TARIFF ON WOOL GOODS
Accuses Them Of Hiding Be-
hind Revenue Policy While
Secretly Favodng Protection
For Favored Interests,


Washington, ID. G., May 3o.--Wil-
liam Jennings Bryan today took ex-
ception to the program OF his party in
the house and criticised sharply the
majority of the democrats who have
agreed to support the revised tariff
schedule on wool and woolen goods.
The criticism was contained In a state
ment made public through Represent
ative Harrison offNew York.
Chairman Underwood of the ways
and means committee. contented him
self with the declaration that despite
Mr. Bryan's stand the revised tariff
would go through the democratic eau
Gus with two-thirds majority
"The democratic voters. said Mr..
Bryan, "know that that all needed
revenue can he raised In less oppres-
sive ways and they know the argu-
ment that the tariff on wool Is pro-
posed as q revenue tariff Is merely
subterfuge employed because those
who employ it are ashamed to say
they favor protection"
The Nebraskan warned against the
drift of democrats toward protect
tive policy which he said is most
marked In those democrats who "have
among their constituents influential
benefielarles OF the system"
''The republicans want protection
on wool because they believe In the
principle of protection" he declared.
Let no democratic advocate of tax
on wool masquerade behind the pre-
tense that he is voting 10" a revenue
tariff; let him not add hypocrisy 10
the sins which he commits against his
party"
This criticism apparently directed
Int the party leaders in the house
evoked no comment except the sug-
gestion that the votes in the caucus
would disclose that Mr. Bryan has on
ly one-third of the democrats in the
house behind him.
Mr.. Bryan insisted II protection
was to be accepted as a democratic
doctrine" that II W. accepted openly
and applied sto Everything and 40 all
sections. He said there is no reason
for favoritlsm % q few sheep raisers
at the expense of'all who wear wool
en- clothing.
Before the democratic party is
equally committed to the doctrine of
protection, he declared, ''it viii he
necessary to consult the voters of the
party and it may be well to remember
that the voters of all parties are bray

can voters We're brave enough to
turn out q lot of republican Aldrlchs,

congressman to think that denlocra-
tic voters are less courageous?"

BRYAN TAKEN SHARPLY
TO TASK BY UNDERWOOD,

Washington, May 30.--Mr. Bryan's
defiance today of the party leaders in
the house. his warning to the demo-
cratic members Of the house that the
voters are yet to pass on the wool
schedules they are to ratify and his
appeal to them not to add hypocrisy
to the sin" of voting for a revenue on
wool, have caused intense feeling in
the party.
Notwithstanding this Mr.. Under
wood. as chairman of the house COM
mittee on ways and means tonight was
insistent I'm the prediction that the
revenue wool bill will be approved by
big majority.
I'm my Judgment Mr.. Underwood
said in answer to Mr. Bryan, his
statement is unjust and unfair to the
members of the ways and means com
mittee and to the democratic repre-
sentatives In congress who will sup
port the bill.
"rhc ways and means committee
have cut In half the whole wool sched'
ule. They have reduced the duty on
manufactured goods as low as tney
were under the Wilson bill that Mr.,
Bryan voted for when raw wool was
placed on the free list. In that re-
ductiop they have fallen snort oi
$40, 200, 600 now raised on wool by
$13. 1000, 600 and II is necessary In or
der to secure this revenue to place
revenue tax on raw wool imported
into the United States.
"a "Under the high rates of the Payne
tariff bill the tax on raw wool was
highly competitive, nearly one-half OF
the wool used in this country being
imported from abroad. When the
rates on raw wool are cut more thah
one-half II Is absolutely at a compeii-
tive rate. leveled solely for the pur-
pose of revenue without any OF the es-
sentlals of a protective tariff.
Mr.. Underwood said that In the tar
iff bill the ways and means commit
