bated II at length. Constitutional
lawyers differed as to the validity OF

declared that Congress cannof dele
gate tariff-making powers, and that
q change in tariff rates Is q change in
government income. and the House OF
Representatives alone can initiate
revenue legislation under the federal
Constitution.
Those who favor the law argue, on
the other hand, that the, legislative
branch of the government has not
delegated its powers, but has simply
established certain limitations within
which the President, acting on inves-
LEGATIONS made by the Tariff Commits
sion, is authorized by Congress to
proclaim rate changes. 1t is contend
ed that the delegation of certain dis
| ecutive by Congress has again and
again been sustained by the courts.
Even. however IL the flexible pro-
vision is declared unconstitutional,
would not be invalidated nor would
the commission be abolished, as its
investigating machinery is particu-
larly Invaluable to Congress ana
American manufacturers
The Tariff Commission is having a

of production from abroad. The fiuc-

Whether the rates are increased or

said to be anxious to make sure that
the action of the commission when pro-
claimed by the President is conclusive.
Under the law the President acts on

formal way. Mr.. Coolidge will ask
Attorney General Daugherty for an
opinion, no doubt, before issuing any
proclamation.
The opinion of the Attorney Cen

prevent an appeal to the courts. but
the tariff is such a far-reaching af-
fair that what might suit one group
