Washington, April 22.-By vote of
IA to 7, with all Republicans voting
against 1t, the House ways and means
committee reported the completed
Democratic tariff revision bill today.
Chairman Underwood told the House
the income tax can be raised or low
cred from year to year, according to
the governments revenue needs,
thereby making possible close bal
ance between expenditures and rev.
nues, such as is practiced I'm most
other civilized countries.
The new bill completely disregards
the cost or production. Thereby, as
a regulator OF tariff rates, the Demo
Gratis assert, the highly protected in
dustries, like wool, become stagnant
because no real competition develops
to make them highly efficient, while
Industries where protection has been
reduced, like steel, lead the world be-
cause foreign competition has brought
out American efficiency.
The Democratic leaders told the
House the future growth of the great
American industries lies in foreign
countries.
Wilson Appeals to California.
