time to digest it, many contending that only a tariff expert could cor rectly figure the percentages. The American valuation provision was stumbling block in the way of en- lightment, especially as the bill was thrown into the House hopper with out explanation. In v,ew of the de- mand from members for information, Chairman Fordney gave out word during the day that the opening caucus would not be able to reach real contested ground.
 It seemed to be agreed that the American valuation section would af. feet between 50 and 60 per cent of all imports, which have no standard value In fixing the duty on chair for example, the committee wrote into the bill provision that 1t should be assessed upon the value in the American market of comparable and competitive article. In word, chair shipped here from Germany and costing S2 there, would be assessed at the port of entry at $5, if the later figure were judged to be tfe fair price in this country. Under existing law the duty Is based upon the foreign value.
 Because of this provision, it was difficult TOT members SeHeTdhy :" do their own figuring or to make accurate comparisons with Payne- Aldrich rates. MT. Fordney, in what he described as a rough estimate of average, said he had taken into ac- count the valuation section
 No Definite Agreement
 No definite agreement was reach ed at the caucus tonight on the pro- cedure to be followed in the House. A tactit understanding, however, was reached that many of the contested rates should be placed before the House for straight amendment, sepa- rate consideration and vote.
 The contested subjects include oi' lumber and hides, now on the free list, and the provision respecting control of dye imporations. On all rates not to be put to a straign. amendment vote. the republicans, IL was said, would be asked to stand solidy behind the committee action.
 The tentative plan. although lack
