DEBATE ON TARIFF
GROWS BITTER AS
VOTING Time NEARS
Congressman Young and Frear
Attacked by Colleagues for
Giving Out Information.
By A. O. HAYWARD.
Tnternational News Service

Closing hours of consideration by
Ways and Means Committee Repub-
leans of the new tariff legislation
are being marked today with heated
disputes and sharp encounters.
When Congressman Young, North
Dakota. told the House that a duty
of 20 per cent ad valorem had been
laid on certain lumber that comes
from Canada he was accused of hav-
Ing violated the executive session
rules of the committee against CIV
ing out information. Several of his
colleagues threatened to carry the
matter to the floor of the House
with q recommendation that his
speech be stricken from the record.
Congressman Frear, Wisconsin, an
other member, caused flare-up in
the committee by making public his
resolution calling for postponement
of action on the chemical dye sec
tion before the matter had been
acted on by the committee. In a
tempestuous session Frear was
scored and answered his critics.
These two incidents have convinced
the leaders that they should delay
no longer in getting the bill from
the committee into the House.
Plans of the House leaders call
for the opening of debate on the bill
in the House July 6 and It's passage
through that body before August l.
Tho Democrats do not expect to
present . substitute bill for the one
presented by the Republicans. and
will seek to change the bill during
its consideration In the House.
They will file minority report at
tacking the legislation generally.

Steel rails are not quietly delivered
