SUNDRY CIVIL
BILL PROBLEM
TO PRESIDENT
Present Opinion on Subject LA
BILE to Change, He
Declares
PROTESTS ON TARIFF
FROM INTERESTED ONES
Market Quotations Explode
False Low Tariff Ideas,
Says Executive

WASHINGTON. April l4.-President
Wilson made IL emphatically plain to-
day that no one has been authorized
10 declare his position on the exemp-
izations from the operation OF the
Sherman antitrust law.
Al his regular weekly conference
with the Washington correspondents.
the attention OF the president was
called to declarations made by rep
resentatives and senators that he
will sign the sundry civil bill, which
former President Taft vetoed, should
in reach him with the exemption
clause included. The presidents posi-
tion Is that this Is most serious
problem and that while he has an
opinion on the subject, such opinion
is subject TO change and that any
declaration OF his intentions at this
time is premature and does not repre-
cent the facts.
With the tariff bill a week old to-
day, the president has been greatly
pleased with the manner In which 1t
has been received throughout the
country. While he has received hun
dreds OF objections In person. and by
letter. dealing with various schedules.
he also has received commentators
which over balance these. The objec-
tons. II was pointed out. came, for
the most part, from interested parties.
and will make no change In the posi-
ton ~ the administration.
II was again emphasized today that
the president, as the United States
pointed out on Saturday. is standing
pat in his position for the lower tariff
He considers many OF the arguments
that are being made against the bill
misleading This is especially so In
the case or the wool and sugar SEIZED
ules. when the presidents attention
was called TO the declaration OF the
high tariff wool representatives that
free wool will ruin the Industry. he
called attention TO the morning paper
quotations on wool which show that
there is very little difference in the
prices for that product here and
abroad This is proof conclusive, in
the opinion OF the executive that with
free wool there will be active compe-
tition and the wool industry in Amer
lea will be placed on a healthy foot.
