Sidetracking of Tariff for
Raid Measure Is De-
manded.
DISTRESS IN CHAMBER
Walsh Of Massachusetts, Who
Favors Gratuity, to De-
mand Showdown.
BY LOUIS sEIBOLD.

Special Dispatch to THE New York HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. c., June 2S.
The protest voiced by the Disabled
Soldiers League convention in Phila-
delphia yesterday against the $5,000,-
900 bonus raid forced the pro-
,moters of it on the defensive to-day.
1t primarily was responsible for the
first of a series of moves which are to
be made from time to time to set aside
the tariff bill and bring the bonus be-
fore the Senate.
Goaded by the politicians in the
American Legion, the bonus Senators,
led by Mr.. Walsh (Dem., Mass.), indi-
Gated their determination this after
noon to demand another showdown
without loss Of time. 1t appears that
the political leaders of the legion are
becoming very impatient over what
they describe to be "the excuses" Of
The bonus Senators for failing to keep
their pledge to tie up all legislation
until the raid bill has been passed.
Demands by the legion politicians
that there be no further, delay have
assumed the form of threats to or
ganize the susceptible soldier vote
against Senators catalogued as "un-
friendly" unless they move at once to
ignore the recommendation Of Presi-
dent Harding and the agreement Of
the Senate Republican conference to
keep the tariff ahead Of the bonus at
the top of the list.
The threats coming from the Legion
politicians have had the effect Of in
creasing the distress Of dozen or
more Republican Senators who per-
sist in the unwarranted belief that
the soldier vote can be delieyered en-
bloc either for or against them.
Arguments supported by the re-
suits of primary events are swept
aside by bonus Senators, who fear the
ogre of the soldier vote. Increasing
signs Of impatience on the part of
these Senators to-day indicated a
speedy return to the attack on the
White House. and Republican Sena-
tors who have been compelled to sup
port the Presidential demand that the
bonus be kept in the background.
Administration leaders admitted to-
day that they expect another move
within the next day or two to put the
Senate on record for or against the
bonus. 1t looked for time this af-
ternoon as If the test were to be
staged at once as a result of the ac-
ton of the Disabled Veterans League
convention yesterday.
Senator Watson (Dem., Ga.) called
the attention of the Senate to the
action of the Disabled Veterans
League. In doing so he was COM
PEELED to admit that the Government
is making generous provision for the
manned, sick and disabled. He re-
fused, however, to concede that the
justice of the claim made by the Dis
abled Veterans League that the pro-
ponents of the bonus for ablebodied
ex-service men were taking advantage
of the helplessness of their less for

Senator Stanley (Dem- Ky.). repre-
senting one of the great livestock
states assailed the livestock rates as
being a robbery OF the entire public

Senator Stanley declared the present
bill was being prepared on the basis of
trades, and said it demonstrated the
truth of the statement made by Gen.
Hancock that "the tariff Is local

rated by the fact that Senator Brous-

Senator Walsh (Dem., Mass.) assailed
the position of the majority of the Senate
with citations from the reports Of the
Tariff Commission showing that the
imports of the articles affected were
infinitesimal as compared with the
exports.
Senator King (Dem., Utah) criticised
members of his party for voting for the
rates and announced his belief the time
had come when the party should stand

Special Dispatch to THE New York HERALD
New York Herald Bureau,
Washington, ID. c., June 2S. !
The farm tariff bloc demonstrated
it's power in the Senate to-day by
walking roughshod over the opposi-
ton and forcing an increase in the
rates on livestock and meats.
Pyramiced schedules fixed by the
Senate Finance Committee, which
amount practically to exclusion of
foreign products. were voted into the
tariff bill by the Republican Senators
from agricultural States, aided by the
sugar bloc from Louisiana and other
Democratic and Republican Senators
who later will exact their pound of
flesh for their complacency.
The Democrats have agreed upon
their strategic plans in dealing with
the tariff. Following several informal
conferences among the leaders, it has
been decided to allow the, tariff bill
finally to be voted on in; about FIVE
weeks. Before permittingiit to come
to vote the Democrats propose to
conduct what they call an "educa-
tional campaign" which will consist
OF speeches on schedules with special
attention to the duties on key articles
like sugar, cotton, wool and, sundries-
with special emphasis on the item
dealing with "sundries.'
After this debate has been carried
on the Democrats will withdraw all
opposition to a vote and, if one is not
taken soon. will insist upon a test of
strength.
The debate to-day further developed
the parochial nature of the sched ules.
demonstrating the power the farm
group has acquired, giving to 1t. ability
20 make trades on all other schedules.
Tells Danger of Power.
The dangerous possibility of this
power was pointed out by Senator
Simmons (Dem. N. c.. who claimed
the agricultural sections are liable to
be hoist by their own petard.
Senator Simmons showed the use-
lessness Of affiSing high tariff rates
on farm products which are imported
into this country in small quantities
only, since such a course would not
give the producers any advantage in
prices but would compel representa-
tives of the farm sections to vote for
high schedules on articles that the
farmer must buy. He demonstrated
that the same representatives sections
were trying to give to their own
regions something of no value put was
being palmed off as of great worth.
while\at the same time, voting for rates
on other articles which would compel
the farmer to pay out two dollars

shows Slight Imports.

Senator Walsh interrupted to prove 1t
was impossible to injure the beef In
dustry by competition from abroad.
Quoting from the record of 1921, he said ::
"The total production in this country is
6,194 600, 900 pounds. What was the I'M
portation in the year 1921? Twenty
seven million pounds--four-tenths OF one
per cent. imported into this country.
If tariff is justified upon an impor-
tation of four-tenths OF one per cent,
then 1t is justified on every single thing
that Is produced in America.
"The exports are 52,000.000 pounds,
twice the imports. So here Is an industry
producing seven billions of pounds and
exporting twice as much as Is imported
and asking for an increase Of 133 per
cent tariff duty over the Payne-Adrich
bill, an increase Of rs per cent. tarin

A RESIDENT of California has
~ adopted an unusual method
of sending his protest against
the $4,000. 100000 bonus raid to a
Senator from another State be-
cause Senators Johnson and Short
ridge have declared for the scheme.
In doing so the Californian said:
THE American people are dis

ing this bonus outrage because they
are afraid of the soldier vote. What

country and what a miserable ex-
hibition of their manhood. Mac

land furnish an inducement to him to
give his approval to the action of his
representatives in voting for duties he
will have to pay on other commodities.
/ think it win be found that while the
farmer may have the price of certain Of
his products advanced to a slight ex-
tent he will have to pay five or six
times as much as he takes in."
Senator Stanley charged that the price
of beef in this country was not fixed by
the producer but by the packers and
that the additional tariff only enabled
the packers to charge the consumer
more for his meat.
Your Trade Commission has reported
that the price of beef is not fixed by
an unnatural law he said. "but Is in
the absolute and ironclad control of a
lawless and insatfate monopoly and that
there is absolutely no competition be-
tween the sellers of beef in this country.
Then the only competition that ex-
lists in the wide world is from abroad.
from somebody that will sell a pound
of beef that is not made by a packer.
and you first state and by your vote
solemnly confirm the statement, that
there is no competition at home and
then in the next breath you deliberately
attempt to destroy competition from
abroad"
