TAFT AND LEADERS IN CONGRESS
STAND PAT FOR PROTECTION

democrats can avert the issue and
place the republicans in a bad posi-
ton, according to calculations, is by
accepting the republican wool bill or
passing one so near like it that they
will be able to claim the credit for
inaugurating the first real downward
revision for many years.
The democrats, on the other hand,
will go ahead with their program.
Their bill will contain what they deem
to be sufficient protection, although
their figures are likely to be below
the republican figures. They will fight
from now on the claim that the tariff
board figures are indisputable or in
fallible. They will stand by their bill,
claiming that it is based upon years
of accumulation of facts fully tested
and to be given every credence. They
will assert that the tariff board Is
made up of republicans whose report
has been biased by the beliefs of the
majority of its members.
The democrats will make the ques-
ton one of accuracy as between their
figures and the republican figures as
contained in the tariff board report

The situation promises to arouse

he will not dodge his share of respon-
sibility.
