OPEN ANTAGON|SM
 ID TAR|F F BILL
 IN BOTH HOUSES
Rainey Files Minority Views ScathingIy Denouncing the . Measure From Beginning
 to End
By Associated Press


 , Washington, December 20-Presenta- ton of the F'ordney emergency tariff bill in the House and decision of it's support CTS to call it up for consideration We'd nesday was followed today by expres- sions of open antagonism by the House and Senate. The opposition. hitherto manifest only to a slight extent, was ;n- tensiifed by the filing of minority views by Representative Rainey, democrat, Illi- nois, scathingly denouncing the measure from beginning to end, and by decision of the Senate democratic steering com mittee to resist nasty enactment of any such legislation.
 Chairman Fordney of the House ways and means committee, in reporting the measure, urged action, not because it was perfect, but because it was the best ob- tainable under the circumstances. The report declared that remedial legislation was urgently necessary to correct sit uation which was described as rapidly becoming worse and likely to bring ruin to the agricultural industry.
 The filing of the committees report disclosed that the measure had been made applicable for period of 10 months from passage, instead of the one-year pe- riod, previously fixed Chairman Ford ney submitted with the report estimates of the treasury department showing that. eNn the basis of available import figures, approximately s1So0o0,0Oo in revenue would be derived from the duties to be imposed under the measure. The com modities enumerated in the bill now pro- duce less than $5,000,00o annually.
 As finally approved and reported to the House, the bill carries import duties on commodities which, together with the rates agreed to in committee and the estimated revenue to come therefrom, fnllnxu.

SIX VOTE NO

On the vote in the ways and means committee on reporting the bill. two re- publicans and four democrats voted III the negative. Representative TreadWay' Massachusetts and Tilson, Connecticut were understood to have been the repuo- licans who stood against the measure, while Representatives Rainey and Hull Tennessee Oldham, Arkansas ana Coi- Her Mississippi, were the democrats WHO opposed the legislation.
 The republican committee members were said to have opposed the Dill OH the ground that if the tariff legisiatioh was to be enacted it should include pro- .oction for manufactured commodities, few of which were allowed to remaHi IT the final draft This contention appeared to have gained some strength among representatives from textile ana olhel ,nanufacturing districts and is expected +o nrecipitate heated debate. Representa- five Knutson, republican, Mlnneso,a' chairman of the recently organized con ference of representatives from 1arniii,s districts. said he was sure there would be bitter opposition from the urpah lop- resentatives, but added:
 .eWe members who see the need or the sarnaers for help are prepared TOT pas, 4Ie royal. We think we can muster AVV votes for the bill, and I personally serve notice on those people who seek to ue ,feat this bill that they will sweat plooa hefore they get anything for their lnous. tries when it comes to perina,i.a. ,i., tariff unless they do the fair tnlne now.'' 4, 4
 Against this came the statement or the .anate democratic steering committee that they did not regard the measure as an emergency proposal and would de- mand that it be considered by the 1inahce <. committee in regular order when 's # reaches the senate Senator Harrison oi Mississippi, democrat, served noucs from the floor of the senate tha' i'e would oppose the bill.
 .The democratic party" he deciareo' .cannot afford to stultify itself at this time upon so important a question oi principle as that which the tarl1r pro- posals involve"
