Minority Report Bitterly
Arraigns Tactics of
Republicans.
DEBATE TO BEGIN TODAY
All Day Taken Up In
Reading and Still Is
Not Concluded
(By Associated Press)

Washington July Tine perma-
nent tariff bill as drawn by republi-
can members of the house ways and
means committee Joow top place on
the house calendar today. Not to be
displaced by other legislation until
voted on July 81. There was no cere-
mony 3 in beginning consideration Of
the measure and the day was devoted
to having it !. read paragraph by
paragraph while members sat and
sweitered without giving heed to the
monotonous droning of a relay of
reading clerks.
The measure covers BAG pages. B
Democratic members held a con-
ference at which it was said with
"half a dozen exceptions" it was
agreed that the party should stand
as unit against the bill. Some of
the members, it was added, declined
to be bound BY instructions but lead
ers predicted the final vote would
show but few breaks in the demo-
cratic ranks.
A resolution was adopted at the
conference declaring that the mea-
sure violated all principles and ira
ditions of the democratic party and
reafirming the party's stand against
a high protective tariff.
The reading had not been conclud-
ed when the house quit work for the
day and before general debate be-
gins tomorrow the reading will be
concluded and rule adopted shutting
off all but few general amendments
and such others as may be offered by
the committee.
Democratic members Of the ways
and means committee in minority
report filed in the house denounced
the administration tariff bill as a
Conspiracy to benefit a few favor
ties at the expense of all humanity"
Like every conspiracy it has been
Matched in secrecy" the report says,
adding,
"We record our solemn judgement
that this measure is a plan to plum
der the people of our country and
to Cypress the people of every coun-
try for the benefit of few men who
have succeeded in usurping for all
practical purposes the taxing power
of this government using it primari-
ly to enrich themselves, and, secon-
darby, to finance the political party
which tolerates, encourages and ia
cilitates the usurpation."
The report declares the tariff was
not an issue in the last campaign
and that this is not the time to
write a tariff law. They assert that
the problems which confront our
people cripple our industry, stifie our
commerce and perplex an amiable
administration having nothing to do
with the tariff"
Held From Democrats
Criticising the republican MAORI
ty of the committee for Withholding
the bill from them and from the house
membership generally and the per-
hitting only week for its study,
the democratic members declare
there has been insufficient time to
draft a substitute. They do not un-
derstand any detailed discussion of
the individual schedules in the bill,

many as possible participate in the
fund. 1t is estimated that the granite
base will cost about $500, so it will

their names written on the honor
roll which is to supply the base.

Thinks Other Matters
Should Be Settled
First
MAY DEMAND A RECESS
But Says Nothing of Big
Sum Asked by the
Railroads

Washington, July President
Harding paid an unexpected visit to
the senate today and it is understood
interposed the weight of his person
mel influence to defer action on the
soldier bonus bill until a clearer un-
derstanding of the governments f.
nancial outlook has been made pos
sible by the enactment of new tariff
and tax laws.
In an hours conference with senate
leaders The President is understood to-
shaye endorsed the view Of Secretary
Mellon that bonus legislation now
might be serious embarrassment
to the treasury and even to have sug.
gested that all other legislative busi7
ness be suspended to permit COM
'pletion of the tariff and tax revisions
las soon as possible. By those who
talked with him he was quoted as
favoring a recess of congress while
the committees in charge are has
tening perfection of the two measures
on account of which the special SEES
sion was called.
viii Lay Stress Today ~
1t was indicated that Mr.. Hard
ing's views would be set forth at
greater length in a special message
to congress which may be sent to
the capital tomorrow. The document
is expected to deal particularly with
the bonus bill andto set forth that
while the administration regards it
self as committed to some legisla-
ton for relief of war veterans it
sees no reason for acting precipi-
attely. -
While the President was giving his
opinion to senator after senator in his
room just off the senate chamber the
senate itself was debating the bo-
nus bill with sponsors for the nlea-
sure confident of its passage. By an
overwhelming vote the bill had been
brought to the senate floor as
special order of business and the
senators in charge were inclined to
predict that even the opposition of
Secretary Mellon would not be suf-
ficient to delay it.
Tonight the outlook generally was
admitted to be more uncertain. Lead
ers had not yet made a canvass to
ascertain just how much weight the
visit of the President might have and
the disposition in most quarters was
to await Mr.. Harding's message be-
fore voting showdown. After the
message had been received it is re-
garded as likely that an attempt will
be made to send the bonus bill back to
and then secure another
vote on the recess proposals which
failed of adoption several days ago
BY margin of four votes.

 The Joseph Pulitzer was last seen at Uyak Bay on December 1 5 and should have reported at Unga within three days from that time.
