MANY WANT TO BE HEARD.
Manufacturers Would Express Opin-
ion on Tariff Revision.

So many manufacturers are asking daily
for opportunities to appear before the
House ways and means committee. to ex-
press their views. that there is every
possibility that night sessions will have
to be called by Representative Under
wood, chairman. The first hearing Is
scheduled for January 6 and thereafter.
At intervals Of only two or three days,
the various schedules will be discussed.
At the first glance 1t would appear that
the committee Is in a great hurry to get
through with the hearings and frame a
bill. The clerks Of the committee are
swamped with requests for opportunities
to appear, and unless some definite policy
is adopted to limit the manufacturers
representatives to a certain length OF
time, the schedule of hearings as pub
lished viii have to be changed entirely.
