AN UNUSUAL SITUATION


WASHINGTON, May 20. No

Of tho Underwood tariff bill is likely

committee or democratic caucus, &C
cording to leaders considering that
part of the bill.
Senators Williams, Shiyely and
Gore have the income tax in hand ..
Though their committee room is piled
high with protests and suggestions
from many sources, the measure IS
believed to have been well handled
and the objections made to 1t In its
original form are thought to have
bcen sufficiently met In amendments
before the bill passed the house.
Protests All Covered.
Among the loudest protests coming
now are those from mutual Insurance
companies conducted for profit, but
the house amended the original bill
as relating to insurance companies

ators on the finance committee be-
lieve II is sound. Complaints from

panies that the law viii tax them

hers of the committee.
Senator Penrose failed today to get
up his resolution providing for publ
cation Of the list of tariff questions to
manufacturers, proposed by Senator
La Toilette, the senate going into
executive session before the tarifI
was reached. Early in the day the
finance committee majority framed
an amendment to the resolution pro-
posing a longer list Of questions, In
which some OF Senator La Follette's z
queries were included. The questions
will relate to production, raw ma
terial and transportation costs here
and abroad proportion of tarif
duties which cover production cost

proportion which amounts to a manu-
facturers' profit and other tariff prob

tend to bring the matter up again.
Marshall Held Confidence.
Vice President Marshall called on
the finance committee chairman today
and discussed with him the tariff and
its prospects in the senate. The vice
president said he d'd not discuss rates
or schedules and Chairman simmons
said the conference was merely infor-
nal and had to do with the handling
of the bill when it reached the senate
floor.
Discussion of raw ivory proposed in
the Underwood bill before the John
son sub committee disclosed an un-
usual situation. representatives OF
cotton exporters, in protesting against
the proposed 20 per cent duty on
tusks declared it would break up the
barter trade in cotton with African
tusk dealers. For years they have
been shipping thousands Of dollars
worth of cotton to the African trad
ers and bringing back In payment
therefor ivory tusks which they in
turn sold to piano manufacturers.
