Several Minor Amendments to
Underwood Law Are, Schcd-
uled for Extra Session
of Congress. "a a
IMPORT DUTIES
ALL BE RAISED
War and Excess Profits Taxes
nj the New War Revenue
May Be Repealed
Soon.
BY GEORGE n. MANNING.

Washington. u. c., March 23.-Be-
ginning with the passage of several
minor amendments to the Underwood
tariff law at the extra session of con-
gress to begin in June. for the purpose
of protecting some American industries
developed during the war, the Repub-
licans expect in the next two years
to put the tariff rates back to a scale
approaching the old Payne tariff law.
This will mean an average increase
In, all import duties of about Is per
cent. ad valorem. The Underwood BILL
passed In 1913. levies an import duty of
about 5 per cent. ad valorem. The
Payne tariff law passed in 1909 levied
an average of Is 1-2 per cent. That
was a reduction of about 25 per cent
in the rates imposed by the Dingley
bill, passed in 1897, which 1t succeed
ed.
The war profits taxes and the excess
profits taxes in the new war revenue
bill. which impose a very heavy bur-
den on numerous big business concerns
may also be repealed by the Republic
cans at the extra session.
This intention is clearly indica ted
in statements made by the Republican
leaders in the house since adjournment
of congress. Such men as Represent
ative Joseph W. Fordney of Michigan.
chairman-elect of the ways and means
committee, and Representatives J.
Hampton Moore of Pennsylvania and
Nicholas Longworth of Ohio, the rank
ing members on the committee have
expressed their firm opinion that the
tariff will be raised all along the line.
They assert as justification for this
action that the United States must
Immediately raise the tariff wall to
protect American capital and labor
from the cheap labor and insufficient
markets of the foreign countries They
give the advisability OF raising gov
ernment revenues from import duties
in preference to levying burdensome
income taxes as another good reason
for effecting the changes
With a good working majority in
both the senate and house in the next
congress the Republicans will make
the readjustment Of the tariff schedules
one OF their frst considerations. They
intend. during the extra session. to
make some minor changes to take
care Of new industries and changed
conditions since the war began. with
these changes they viii go before the
voters In 1920 and promise sweeping
changes as soon as the proper rates
can be arrived at. Then in the next

hearings and conducting fun investi-
