Washington, May 29.-Republl-
can members of the house ways and
means committee, preparing final
draft of the general tariff bill, were
said tonight to be at odds over four
important schedules in the new
measure. What was described as an
open split has occurred in the writ
ing of schedules for chemicals, cot
ton, wool and silks.
Despite the lack Of agreement on
these schedules, and the fact that
some others have passed only the
subcommittee stage, Chairman Ford
ney held to his prediction Of June 10
as the date of introduction. Some
members of the committee declare
the house would not receive the
measure short of June 20. The
chemical schedule, it was said, has
resulted, in a continuation of the
fight originating in the senate
against the further use of restric-
tions other than by tariff rates on
the importaions Of dyestuffs. Mr..
Fordney 'is understood to have an
nounced his vigorous opposition in
the committee to any plan savoring
Of an embargo, although he was
willing to allow the application of
high rates. = ..
Neither the subcommittee nor the
full Republican membership has sue
ceeded in establishing basic rates
on the silk schedule, while sectional
views were said to have been re-
flected in the attempt to fix rates
on cotton and its products. The New
England element in the committee
was said to be fighting against the
rates on cotton products, claiming
they were disproportionate to the
rates on the raw product. -
Subcommittee drafts of the,
schedules on earthenware, paper,
and minerals are under
stood to have been accepted by the
majority members of the committee.
A formal call for a caucus of
house Republicans next Wednesday
went out during the day. The con-
ference will discuss and attempt to
determine party policy on the reso-
luton of Representative Longworth,,
Ohio, which would make tariff duties
carried by the general bill effective
upon the date of introduction in the
house. Representative Young of
North Dakota, the only Republican
member of the ways and means COM
mittee to oppose the plan announced
today he would carry his fight
against it to the caucus and de-
clared he had assurance Of strong
support.
