WHY TAX AND TARIFF REVISION LAG.
lSt. IOScnh News PrPSSl

Congress Is in jam over the tariff and taxation
matters. It is now expected that the Fordney bill
will get before the house about July l. II may
reach the senate until the middle of that month
and its final enactment may lap over into the regu-
lar session of congress- to begin in December. With
senate consideration certain 10 consume several
months what can be done. if anything, in the way
of revising laws in time for the income
payments that will be due next March? And if the
tax laws are not revised, what will the country
think OF republican efficiency?
The republican tariff factions are wide apart
majority stands with Chairman Fordney; minor
ity with Rel. Nicholas LOEgWOrth of Ohio. They
take fundamentally different view as 10 the eco
homie policy the government should pursue at the
present time on the side is the old school OF
high protectonists OF which Mr.. Fordney is the
leader. II starts with the basic assumption that
nothing has taken place since 1914 requiring a
modification Of republican tariff policy. Since there
little in the way of detailed information collected
since 1914 which TO base tariff revision, the
Fordney school holds that the ways and means
committee must accept the data collected prior 10
1914 and apply it 10 the bin that is being pre-
pared. That IT is pointed out by opponents, would
mean the practical re-enactment Of the Payne-Ald-
rich law OF 1909, which cost the republicans the
house in 1910
The other school. led by Mr.. I,ongworth insists
that the tariff must be approached in the light OF
the new conditions produced by the world
They point out that since 1914 the United States
has changed from debtor TO a creditor nation.
Foreign countries owe approximately SIS. 900 OOO
000 which only be paid by the importation into
the United States OF their manufactured goods They
point further. that the United States is inter
ested in foreign trade TO a degree not dreamed OF
when the Payne-Aldrich law was enacted. Foreign
trade they say. has become important factor

mere protection OF specific industries from foreign
competition.
The republican party Will be held 10 account if IL
fails 20 tax law in time affect the 1922 in

fails to do the expected thing. II doesn't help any
to say that the democrats would have just as much
difficulty II they in control Of the government.

The president has plan for association Of

WHY THE COMET SAILS

I've asked Of wise astronomers what
made the comets sail
Across the velvet skies at night. each
followed by his tail,
But though they all had theories
about the comets flight
They none Of them appeared 70 be
quite sure that they were right.
But when I asked little hoy, he
gravely bobbed his head
And told me he'd explain il all, and
this is What ne said:
One night when all the children
stars were shining in the sky,

And carrying a glowing mist, which

And see behind his shining head a

And now he's rushing TO and fro 70

That lost his hold upon the sky. and
tumbled down 30 far.
And as watch him fash above the
round and pallid moon,
/ signal that I hope his search will
prosper very soon.
