DEMOCRAT Turns
ON TARIFF LAWS
Representative Whitacre Riles
Colleagues by His
Speech.
G. o. P. BILL
Urges Investigation of Statutes Word
ing While Republicans Cheer and
Administration Forces Scowl.

Representative James J. Whitacre,
Democratic insurgent from Chic, yes
terday startled his party colleagues in
the House by making a speech n which
he denounced the Democratic ta,iff, de-
claring that it was up to the authors
of the measure TO prove that It hGd not
injured business. Mr. WhitaCre indorsed
the bill offered by Representative Mann,
Republican leader. providing for the
creation of a tariff board to make a
scientific inquiry into the subject. The
Ohio member complained that he had
sought an opportunity to appear before
the Ways and Means Committee Ito pro-
test against the inequalities of the tar
in but that his request for such hear
ing had been ignored
The only item in the tariff bill
which the Democrats can claim has
not proved injurious to business is
that relating TO clay products" said
Representative Whitacre. AN i'm
partial investigation has shown that
the East Liverpool potteries in Ohio
were not injured by the reduction. The
only reason / can defend the pottery
schedule is that the books of the East
Liverpool manufacturers were thrown
open and our potters conceded that
they were not hurt. However, other
industries in my State have been in
jured. If we could pass a bill creating
a tariff board as Mr.. Mann has pro-
posed we could make an impartial in
vestigation OF every item and give
American manufacturers square
deal"
should Repair Damage.
The Democratic party promised to
revise the tariff without injury TO bust
can show that they
have been injured. it is incumbent
upon the Democratic party to make
reparatiOn. The general business de-
preston shows that industry has been
injured"
Mr. WhItacre expressed the belief that
the tariff was not entirely responsible for
the business depression. but he said he
did not care to make such an argument
to men with empty dinner pals.
You can go down South and take the
railroads and throw them into the Gulf
and the people there would still vote the
Democratic ticket but you cannot go
into Ohio and injure the manufacturing
industries and get the people to stand by
