Washington, Feb. 3.-Although de-
bate on the Fprdney emergency tariff
bill dragged aimlessly on the Senate
floor today. real progress was made
towards definite action on the meas
ure. Senator McCumber, Republican,
North Dakota, obtained agreement to
take up the bill with it's amendments
for second reading and, outside of
the chamber, leaders of both sides
reached tentative understanding to
Tx a date for q final vote.
The tentative program probably will
be submitted to the Senate tomorrow
and unanimous consent asked for an
agreement to vote on the bill February
Is or soon after. Senators tonight

ceptance of the plan.

ltical manoeuvering and the leaders
conferred about them in and out of
the chamber. while Senators Capper,
Republican. Kansas; Fletcher, Dolno-
crat, Florida; Mcclellan, Democrat.

rates are undoubtedly retarding great
