Majority Leader Underwood whose
name the new bill bears, when asked
to answer the query of the critics as
to what progress has been made by
Congress towards lowering the cost
of living, and when these reductions
would be made said.
"To point out in detail the reduc-
tions in the tariff bill which passed
the House, that will reduce the cost
of living, would take many hours.
But | will say that we have either
placed every food-stuff on the free
list or halved the present tariff upon
it. Meat and bread are placed on the
free list These are commodities in
which the Masses are certainly inter
ested.
1.-The tariff on sugar has been re-
duced twenty-five per cent, and if the
bill is passed in the form in which it
went to the Senate will be entirely
eliminated within three years. This
present reduction, | think, will prob
ably lower the price to the consumer
one-half cent per pound.
GAS to when these reductions will
become effective no one can say. The
bill must first pass the Senate, and l
do not think that there is any doubt
but that it will. It will then go to
the President for his signature and
be law.
mo one can say, however, what
benefits will result to the general
public from these reductions. The
tariffs will be lowered on all articles,
but the middlemen must be consider
ed before one can say what saving
the consumer will enjoy. There is no
doubt that many products will
be materially lowered in price, but
the lowering of the tariff may not in
some instances effect any change in
the prices made the consumers"

Speaker Clark replying to the same
query propounded to Mr.. Under
wood remarked:
"The entire tariff bill that passed
the House would have to be analysed
to answer the questions. That meas
ure as it went to the Senate effects a
reduction in practically every thing
used by the consumer. Whether the
Senate will improve upon it, or even
pass it, yet remains to be seen.
"As to the length of time that will
elapse before the benefits of the re-
auctions will be enjoyed, one cannot
make answer until it is determined
how long it will take the Senate to
pass the bill and then one must pause
still further to find out how long it
will take the measure after it has be-
come law to become operative"
