 We all have for better things, Are unconceived possessions,
 And our longings are the strings By which we're gently guided,

 To our own divine estate.

STATEMENT TAKEN AS
SLAP BY SOME SoLONS

The Presidents statement provoked no
| little discussion among members or both
Houses OF Congress. There was, unfor-
tunately. a disposition to read into the
statement an implied charge that ma
tional legislators had been improperly
approached by members OF the lobby,
whereas the Presidents only charge OF
improper methods was in regard to the
publicity campaign and other propa-
ganda of Misrepresentation.
Some members of Congress who critf-
cised the Presidents statement called
attention also to the fact that lobby
is being maintained in Washington by
interests which favor the passage of the
Underwood bill 1t is fact. however,
that these latter interests have not
prosecuted their campaign of publicity
as vigorously as the opponents of the
measure. and apparently. in the opinion
OF the President. have not resorted to
Misrepresentation.
The lobby against the free sugar pro-
vision of the Underwood bill has been
more active on the surface than any
other in Washington. Nearly all of the
other big interests hit by the bill also
have been maintaining paid agents in
Washington.
Senator RansdelI OF Louisiana, who
has been directing the fight in the Senate
for a restoration of the duty on sugar.
when asked yesterday what comment he
had to make on President Wilson's refer
ences to a lobby in Washington. said:
81 do not know a thing in the world
about IL. 1t does not fit me. None of my
people is in the lobby"
Senator Simmons chairman of the
Finance Committee of the Senate, which
has charge of the tariff bill, when shown
the statement given out by President
Wilson, said:
'I do not know whether these men
are lobbyists or real representatives Of
the various industries. But I do know
they are making tremendous Efforts to
create public sentiment against certain
features of the Underwood bill. You can
say for me that they are not making
any headway."
Oscar W. Underwood, the Democratic
leader in the House, said last night:
II have not seen nor have been ad-
vised of the presence of an improper
tariff lobby in Washington"
Representative Rainey of Illinois. anoth-
er Democratic leader, said:

tried to mislead the country as to the
purposes of the income tax section OF
