Typical Democratic BIunder.
Washington, D. c., May

Washington, d. c., May 25.
A typical example of inexcusable
laundering by Congress in the enact
ment of a statute has been argued re-
Gently before the Court of Customs
Appeals. The court is asked to inter
pref the meaning Of paragraph 40s of
the Underwood tariff act, the first i'm.
portant law of the present administra.
ton.
The paragraph provides free entry
for waste" of any of the articles there
in described SUITABLE" for the man
ufacture of paper. Careless use of the
word suitable" in drafting the law
plunged it into uncertainty, for it ad-
mits a wide latitude of construction.
Will free entry be given to anything
that MIGHT be used in paper making;
or must waste be used ONLY in paper
making in order to enter free Of duty 2
Already two opposing constructions
have been placed upon the statute, one
by customs officials who imposed tax,
another by the Board of u 3. General
Appraisers who allowed free entry,
Now the higher court is appealed to for
third opinion as to the intent of the
law makers.
The blunder is more notable because
the language of former tariff acts was
an ample guide. clearly emphasizing
the need for unequivocal diction. The
act of 1897 provided free entry for
waste FIT ONLY" to be converted
into paper. The corresponding para.
graph in the 1909 act extended free en-.
try to waste USED CHIEFLY" for
paper making.
With these provisions in the old law,
1t seems as though intelligent revision
would have been simplicity itself. But
with their fatal gift of laundering the
Democrats seized upon and inserted
SUITABLE" in the law, the one word
that neither customs officials. lawyers
nor business men affected could under.
stand, aud which rendered imperative
the litigation now in the courts before
the statute can be finally enforced.
