President Wilson read his message
to congress in person shortly after
the opening of the session on Tues
day. 1t was an unusually brief doc
ument and dealt almost exclusively
with the need for thorough, mod
crate and well-considered revision of
the tariff. The president drew at
tention to the necessity of an early
reform in the banking and currency
laws but refrained, he said, from
urging, for the present, any other
legislation that might divert the en-
ergies of congress ''from it's clearly
defined Duty toward the tariff ques-
tion.
The message referred to no parti-
cular schedule, mentioned no rates,
and included no statistics. 1t was
an enunciation OF the presidents
principles on tariff revision. His
specific views and ideas as to rates
and duties, it has been generally &C
cepted, will be contained in the
tariff bill itself, which he is now
considering in detail. The presi-
dents decision to put the weight Of
the administration IS influence behind
the bill, with it's various schedules as
drawn by the house ways and means
committee, caused him to omit spe-
citic reference to tariff rates until
the measure was finally agreed upon
in the opening days of the present
session.
The message urged that special
privilege and exemption from COM
petition be cut out of the nation s
tariff system and that the revision
be made ''to square with the facts
as they are.' He also called atten-
tion to the party's pledge for tariff
reduction.

latjve waters for two months, was
wrecked on Friday in the house

vote was 81 to 60 with eight men,
bers missing, but even if all the alb

later this was modified to shorten
