pose maximum or minimum rates
established by Congress. He also urged
tariff commission to study fuctuatins
trade conditions which affect schedules
and declared that owing to absence of
laws governing perjury all tariff laws
up to now have been based on a. mass
OF contradictory desires presented to
tariff makers in the guise Of evidence.

Lewis Of Illinois Senator Owen said the
federal trade commission was over
burdened with work and could not as
sumo satisfactorily the duties Of a
