Tariff Act Causes Heated Debate on
Floor OF Senate

Washington, Nov. 21.-The effect
OF the new tariff law on the high cost
Of living and on Industrial conditions
furnished the material for a lively
passage today In the senate.
Senator Smoot produced a pamphlet
setting forth that reduction Of wool
and woolen duties would not result in
a material reduction In the cost OF
clothing. Senator Stone. Of Missouri
interrupted him.
When the tariff bill was on the
floor" explained Mr.. Stone. the Re-
publicans we're prophecying Industrial
and financial disaster as a result of
the measure. How can the senator say
now that prices will not be reduced.
We have seen none of the closed fac
tories, the ruined mills or the scualid
soup houses the senator painted SO
vividly. Now he tells Us the cost O.
living Is not reduced. Why. the aver
