NEWLANDS MAKES CLEAR
HIS POSITION ON TARIFF
Says Reports of Contention on
Free Wool and Free Sugar
Exaggerated.

Senator Newlands of Nevada today
gave out statement regarding the
coming conferences this week between
the President and democratic senators
from the intermountain and Pacific coast
states, who are opposed to free wool and
free sugar as provided in the tariff bill
now pending. He said:
'The inference of contention between the
President and the democratic senators
from our region regarding the tariff is not
justified. We are glad TO confer with
the President regarding the industries of
our region and the equitable apportion-
ment of tariff reductions between the diff
ferent sections and regions of the country.
The tariff problems Of the intermoun-
tain and Pacific coast region relate prin-
cipally TO the products Of the mines, the
forests and the farm. and differ from
those of the Atlantic coast and middle
west region. which relate principally to
manufactures.
Our platform demands that material
reductions be speedily made upon the
necessaries of life; but it also declares
for the ultimate attainment of the prin-
ciples we advocate by legislation that will
not injure or destroy legitimate indus
try We OF the west assume that these
principles will be applied to western as
well as eastern industries.
States Nearly All Republican.
..All the states west OF the Missouri
river have been in the past either re-
publican or metropolitan. few years
ago l was the only democratic senator
from that region. Today we have four
teen democratic senator's. of whom ten
are from the intermountain and Pacific
coast states. The margin in many states
is close The loss OF four senators would
destroy our control of legislation and
cripple our ability to carry out the nu-
merOus reforms we contemplate. 1t would
therefore be a mistake to allow that re-
gion to receive the impression that in
tariff reduction its products have been
Disseminated against.
las the President, under the Constitu-
ton. has both the initiative and the veto
of legislation we of the west welcome
his cooperation in the formative process
es Of tariff making, and are glad that he
has taken the initiative In this direction
as a means of promoting party efficiency
and harmony In the service OF the coun-
try Nothing can be more admirable
than the spirit with which the President
has entered upon this work of co-opera-
ton His conscientious desire to obtain
the viewpoint Of every section and region
is apparent When the conference with
the President takes place. to be followed
later on by further conferences with the
majority members of the Senate and
House committees we have no doubt
that the viewpoint Of the west will be
fairly considered"
