REPUBLICAN TARIFF
REVOLT FLARES UP
Effort to Cut Duty OH Electric
Light Bulbs Fails by
One Vote.

WASHINGTON. May 31.-There was
revolt tonight In the Senate Republi-
can ranks against the Finance Commit
tee recommenda tions to impose duty
OF 20 per cent. ad valorem on electric
light bulbs and other Illuminating
glassware. An amendment by Senator
Jones IN. M, Democrat, TO substitute
a 40 per cent. rate was defeated, 81
to 80.
Fourteen Republicans supported the
Jones amendment. They were: Borah
(Idaho), Capper (Kan.). Cummins
Gowa), Kellogg (Minn.). Keyes IN.
H., Ladd IN. Do. La Toilette (Wis.),
Lenroot (Wis.). McNary (Ore.), New
berry (ATch.). Norbeck (S. D., Norris
(Neb.), Sterling Is. d. and Townsend
(Mch). Two Democrats. Broussard
(La.) and Ransdell (La.), voted against
the amendment.
Without a roll call the Senate ap-
proved rate of 65 per cent. ad valorem
blown in the mould, and duty or 5o
per cent. on such glassware when
pressed and unpublished.
A letter written to Senator La Fol-
lette (Rep., Wis., by Samuel Untermyer,
which was read in the Senate last week
by Senator La Toilette and which al
legged control of the electric bulb situa-
tion by the General Electric Company,
played prominent part in the Inore
than two hours debate on this subject.
Senator Jones, who led the opposition
forces, pointed out that electric bulbs
had been dealt with separately In the
House bill and had carried rate OF 30
per cent. and charged that there had
been ''some very deft handiwork" In the
rewriting of the glassware paragraph
in the Senate bill.
Senator Jones sought to have the 10
per cent. rate on laboratory glassware
recommended by the committee reduced
to As per cent. but his amendment was
rejected. &c to 40.
Senator McCumber IN. d.. Republi-
, can, in charge of the bill. and Senator'S
Frelinghuysen IN. J.) and Sutherland
(W. Va.) defended the committee rates
on glassware which ranged from so TO
rs per cent. They argued that they
were wholly inadequate to edualize the
difference in the cost of production in
this country and other central European
countries, where are located the chief
competitors of the American industry.
There was a general dispute between
Democrats and Republicans as to pres
ent labor costs in. the once central Pow
ers. minority speakers contending that
costs abroad were mounting and that
despite the depreciation of the mark
in Germany. it's purchasing power there
was almost as great as before the
war.
