Washington. Jan. 25.--Thc Demo-

of the ways and means committee,
The Republican members OF the COM
mittee were given the right 90 file an
adverse report. The committee had
adopted the bill By strict party vote

Industry does not need the helping

"'rhe committee feels warranted in
recommending that the duties be plac-

The report declares that the rates
should be made low enough To permit
potential competition from foreign
ports for the sake OF natural ana
proper regulation OF domestic prices.
Later in the day tho seven Repub-
lican members OF the committee filed
their report. II declared that the
steel schedule should not be revised
without report from the tariff board
and that the bin was framed without
hearings and was In no way justified
by the full hearing three years ago
before the committee
The minority assaiied the idea that
the schedule relates almost exclusively
to goods manufactured by the United
States steel corporation
~ ~ well Knuwn, says the report,
that this corporation can produce
iron and steel articles more choaply
than can others OF the numerous in-
dependent companies. but Il does not
