Is HIGHLY PRAISED

The possibility OF referendum to con-
stituent bodies before or after action by
the Chamber OF Commerce of the United
States of America on a resolution in
favor of the creation of a permanent
tariff commission provided an animated
political discussion at this mornings
session of the convention in the New
Willard Hotel.
Elimination was made in debate that
the precedent to be set might hazard the
harmony. and even the cohesion of the
elements of the national organization.
The issue was as to whether representa-
t;ves in the convention of organizations
which have reached no expressed de-
terminate for or against tariff COM
mission should consider themselves as
committing those organizations to any
line of conduct by their vote. or if their
individual sentiments would be adequately
expressed by declining to vote
Referred to Committee.
The matter was finally referred to the
committee on resolutions. However. the
sentiment OF the convention was shown,
and indicated to the committee that it
would be expected to provide for refer
.nce to the constituent bodies forming

lion.
