PENROSE
SPEED ON TARIFF
Senator Urges Prompt Action
on Emergency Bill
ARRANGES TAX HEARINGS
Declares the Measure as Drawn
Would Add $45, 100000 to Tariff
Receipts.

Washington, May Ex-senator Pen
rose, Republican, Pennsylvania, chair
man of the finance committee, made
his first extended speech in nearly
two years in urging the emergency
tariff bill, explaining its technical pro-
visions and saying amendments TO
tariff sections would not be enter
tanned.
AS drawn, he said, the sections
would add $45,OOO,00O to the tariff
receipts. The senator urged speedy
enactment, as agricultural interests
were "holding on by their teeth hop
ing congress would help them.
Senator Penrose earlier had asked
senators not to branch off on eNtrane-
Gus matters during the debate.
The request preceded an address by
Senator Pomerene, Democrat, Ohio,
on conditions at the United States
Naval Academy. The Ohio senator
told the senare he appreciated the
curtain lecture" by Mr.. Penrose, but
he had previously announced his
speech and would proceed with it.
Tariff and taxation matters are en-
gaging the attention of Senator Pen
rose almost to the exclusion of every
thing else, except the conservation of
his health. He is holding frequent
! conferences with treasury experts and
Secretary of the Treasury Mellon
visits him frequently.
He is apparently not at all disturb
ed by the efforts back home" to in
terpret the Harrisburg legislative
! "blow-up'' and insists he intends to
devote himself to national questions
which are of vital importance to the
people of Pennsylvania and the rest
| of the country"
Mr.. Penrose dictated a letter on
the subject of the tax hearings which
| he instructed Leighton c. Taylor. his
| secretary. to have sent broadcast. He
| expressed a desire it he given the
| fullest publicity so all those inter-
eSted in tax revision may he repre-
Santed at the hearings. His desk is
piled with letters from Philadelphia
