ANNOUNCES.
TO REVISE TARIFF SCHEDULE
Brief Statement Says Party's Pledges

Made Public to AIIay un.
certainty Of Business

New Nork.-Governor Woodrow
Wilson announced that Immediately
after his inauguration as president of
the United States he would call an
extraordinary session of congress, to
convene not later than April 10, for
the purpose of revising the tariff.
The presidertelcct sailed for Ber-
muda at o'clock this afternoon for a
vacation and will return December
16. To set at rest in the meantime
speculation as to what he would do
with the tariff revision, he issued the
following statement:
Il shall call congress together in
extraordinary session not later than
April Is / shall do this not only be-
cause | think that the pledges of the
party ought to be redeemed as
promptly as possible but also because
know it to be in the interest of
business that all uncertainty as to
what the particular items of revision
of tariff should be removed as soon
as possible
Expected to Delay Announcement.
The governor did not intend to ex-
press himself about an extra session
so soon after his election Although
he has favored the idea of calling an
extra session, because the present ar
rangement would not bring the new
congress into session until thirteen
| months after its election, he had ex-
| peCted to spend more time in ascer-
| tanning public opinion. With the time
| to be consumed in discussion, the
governor felt that if an extra session
were not called, the benefits of tariff
| revision would be postponed for prac.
tically two years. Throughout the
campaign he reiterated that he de-
| sired an immediate revision of the
tariff, and that Democratic leaders
knew perfectly well how to proceed
| about it,
| The governor was impressed by the
| argument also that an early announce.
| ment as 10 an extra session, Demo
| cratic leaders in congress could begin
10 take counsel at an early date, so
that much of the preliminary detail
! convened, on April Is.
Though the president-olect means
to rest while in Bermuda, he really
| expects to give a good deal of time to
quiet thought about the problems that
face him. He will sketch his annual
message to the New Jersey lesisla-
ture. and will do some extensive read
| ing on data on the tariff, monopolies.
banking and currency reforms, and
| other issues.
