brought to a sudden end when Demo-
cratic Leader Underwood refused to
permit the offering of further amend
ments and forced the house to vote
upon the final passage Of the measure.
Twenty insurgent Republicans voted
for the bill, while the Democratic
delegation from Colorado, Representa-
tives Marlin, Rucker and Taylor, dis
satisfied with the great reduction pro-
posed in the lead tariff, voted against

labor question Chairman Stanley
overruled him.
Mr.. Brandeis challenged Judge
Garys recent statement that the cor
poration's treatment of Epes COM
pared favorably with that of any
other and introduced portions of the
report upon the steel industry recently
made by Commissioners Neill of the
bureau Of labor. He criticised the
length Of hours Of workmen.
The percentage of men who under
go hardships is unusually large" said
Mr.. Brandeis. Judge Gary's COM
ment on criticisms of the corporations
policy shows to me the utter inability
of large corporations to regard hu-
man life"
Mr.. Brandeis declared that the
steel industry in England has eliml-
mated entirely all these Objectionable
features"
You don't mean England has been
able to do anything for labor that we
can't do in this country" demanded
0dF. Sb4n4Sy. I GU must De mistaken.
Unfortunately in this case l am
not mistaken" replied Mr. Brandeis
saying that the working week of an
English steel worker was 55.2 hours
and that ~ per cent of the workers
In this country averaged u hours.
Mr. Carnegie has said the steel
business was a case of feast or famine,
prince or pauper, in the early days.

He charged that the steel workers
were worse than slaves.

he said, ''and slaves came into per-

the other hand. the owners of this
steel corporation are in the position
exactly similar to the absentee land
