CALAMITY HOWLERS
TAKEN TO TASK

Fortified by actual figures and by
estimates furnished by treasury
experts, Representative Oscar w.
Underwood, leader of the House
majority, has replied to the critics
Of the Observation-Disclosures tariff
law, who repeatedly of late had
declared that the new tariff was
not fulfilling the expectations u
the promises of those who ad-
vocated its passage.
Mr.. Underwood asserted that the
new law would bring in a revenue
Of 1922, 600, 900 by the end of the
fiscal year, which occurs this week,
and that this would be $22, 600, 600
more than the estimate made by
the Ways and Means committee
while the legislation was pending in
Congress. He admitted that, with an
expenditure of $35, 600, 900 on the
Panama canal this year in addition
to the ordinary disbursem snts, the
treasury probably would be about
$4,000, 900 behind in receipts. Surh
small deficit, he argued, was of
no Importance and he pointed out
that the end of one year of the
Dingley law there was a total de-
felt of $118, OOO, 900.
"As a matter of fact, MIR. Speak
err" said Mr.. Underwood, INSTEAD
of the law bringing a disappoint-
ment as a revenue measure it has
exceeded the expectations of those
who wrote the law. When the
tariff bill was written the Ways
and Means committee estimated
that receipts from the custom dues
the first year woulc amount to
$270, 000, 900. That amount already
has been exceeded by the returns of
the last eleven months, and the
t%reasury's estimate Of the moneys
that will be received from the GUS
toms for the fiscal veal amount to
1922, 600, 900, or an excess in Gus
toms receipts of $22, 600, 900 above
the estimate that we stated to the
House when the bill became a law.
Under the last year of the Payne
law the receipts from customs dues
amounted to 1913, 000, 900 SO that
it is seen that the falling off in
customs dues between the present
law and the Payne law will amount
to the difference between 1913,
100000 and 1892, 600, 900 or about
$4,000, 000... We expected that
there would ne a falling off IN the
receipts from customs dues to some
extent; if we had not We would not
have imposed the income tax.
The treasury reports at the end
of the fiscal year the internal
revenue will amount to about
$S09, 000, 1000, which is a falling of
of $4,000, 900 in our estimates. But
it is equal to the amount of the
internal revenue taxes that were
received under the last e q of the
Payne law, exclusive Of the cor
poration tax, which in that year
amounted to $500, 600, 900, exactl,
the amount the internal revenue
receipts will amount to this year,
80 far is millions arc concerned.
1t see ms to me that gentlemen
who have been criticising this bill
from the standpoint that it would
cause a deficit in the treasury ard
would not supply the government
with sufficient funds have been
dreaming idle dreams and maain~
statements that were backed up by
wishes that sprung from polite i
antagonism and not from basi,
facts, as shown by the reports from
the treasury.
Now as to whether there will be
q deficit in the treasury, the t,taII
