TAXES AHEAD OF TARIFF
NOW APT TO BE PROGRAM
Senator Watson Wants Revenue to
; Be Prime Consideration to
Revive Business.

A possible change in republican
legislative plans by which new tax
laws would be enacted ahead of the
new tariff was announced in the
Senate yesterday by Senator Watson,
republican, Indiana
In the course Of his remarks Sem
ator Watson said:
Il want tax revision legislation to
reassure the people as to what their
tax but Hen will be. Until capital is
employed there will be these, existing
conditions.
"The ways and means committee of
the House has labored for months
on tariff revision and in a short time
the House will be considering that
measure. We all know that the Sem
ate cannot originate revenue meas
ures. but in order to aid the House
committee a Senate committee has
conducted hearings on revenue re-
vision for its information. This
will save time.
What I would like to see is. after
the tariff bill comes to US. and Is
under consideration in committee,
revenue legislation be taken up be-
fore we take up the tariff.
I'VE need tax legislation in the
United States far more than we need
the tariff bill. The best tariff bill
will, in many instances, due to exist
ing world conditions. be obsolete in
side OF SIX months.
The senator then detailed a plan
for the prompt consideration of rev.
enue revision. which the House Is
scheduled to report speedily after 1t
has completed tariff legislation. Un,
der his plan the tariff measure could
be left in committee to be discussed
from the senatorial viewpoint, and'
inasmuch as all of the committee
work necessary, more than six weeks
of hearings having already been con.
Quoted in the Senate, the revenue oiii
could be taken out on the moor ana
speedily passed.
"This step would give a measure
of reinsurance to business and re-
yiye it," he declared. And I trust
this will be the procedure" he added.
Senator Watson declared that he
had always been in favor OF revenue
revision first. and he explained tnat
he was making his remarks because
of a belief that the matter OF taxa
tion should be disposed of ITO revive
business and rehabilitate the INDUS
try of the nation"
Expressing his approva! OF TINS
Thought, Senator Jones OF Washing
ton sought enlightenment on the
SUGGESTION put forward yesterday by
Se5stor Penrose that all other legis-
Iative matters be left over to the
reeular session and that. with a
series of recesses, Congress dispose
of the tariff and revenue revision
program. ,,,,,h,. f,,.

know of no reason why we should
not meet other problems:
