TARIFF changes
DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS SUSTAINS
WAYS AND MEANS MAORI
TY REPORT.
MAY come UP WEDNESDAY
Republicans Endorse Idea of Tariff
Commission to Report Once
Every Year.

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-The tar
if revision bill progressed rapidly in
the democratic caucus of the house
today, was considered simultaneously
by a conference of republican repre-
sentatives, who agreed to proposed
amendments and Democratic Leader
Underwood tonight predicted that the
bill would be brought up in the house
next Wednesday.
In the democratic caucus the ways
and means committee majority was
sustained at every point during ser
les Of fights over proposed amend
ments to the income tax, the only I'M
portant change being a decision to
strengthen the provision eXempting
life insurance policies. The $40,
600, 900 exemption and graduated
scheme of income taxation running up
to per cent on 100000 or more
was retained intact.
The house republicans in an open
conference indorsed the proposed
amendment to the bill that would
provide for tariff commission,
changed so az to require the commits
sion to report annually and deferred
until Monday action on a proposition
to introduce as a republican amend
ment the Payne-Hill wool bill that
was offered two years ago.
Meantime the democrats Of the
ways and means committee met and
agreed upon number Of minor changes
In their bill, which will be offered
probably late tomorrow to correct de-
fects disclosed in the caucus proceed
ings, in kilograms and letters to the
committee and renewed study Of the
bill.
The democrats have been bonn
barded with inquiries regarding a
clause of the income tax provision in
tended to exempt life insurance
policies.
To avoid complications, the caucus
changed the language so as to read
provided the proceeds OF life insur-
ance policies paid upon the death Of
the person insured shall not be in
cluded as Incomes
Representative Sherley OF Ken
tucky proposed to reduce the income
exemptions from $4,000 to $4,000 and
to make incomes OF more than $780,
900 pay per cent tax on the ground
that the bill made too small a ma
jority OF the people subject to the
tax. Representative Hobson Of Ala
bama wanted to make the minimum
$4,000, with rate Of one-half OF one
per cent between $4,000 and $4,000
and a four per cent sur-tax on in
comes between 100000 and per
cent sur-tax above $250.0OO. Repre-
sentative Thatcher of Massachusetts
figured the minimum at $1,000. All
these amendments were voted down.
