Washington, D. G.. July 5.-A break
In the ranks OF Republican members

came today when Representative
Frear OF Wisconsin, made public a
minority statement charging his col
leagues with disregard for party
pledges and assailing them for pro-
posing fundamentally indefensible"
provisions and rates Of duty. The
majority report of the committee,
which II is expected will be submitted
to the house tomorrow.
Mr.. Fresr's attack, while predicted
on the "atrocity." Of the dye control
provisions embraced many other
fcatures of the bill, The Wisconsin
r7.mhers declared the rates of duty
to be excessive In scores of instances
and added that they would lead to
eSsctions by trusts and monopolies
thus increasing the burden. the peo-
ple must carry.
Mr.. Frear referred to the argument
ths, protection for the dye manufac-
tuers was necessary for national de
fensa, and asked why II was necessary
to assume that the nation would he

same tirne.' to grant practically OK
