Revenue Measure Passes House To Raise 40 Million
The House approved a two and a half percent tariff with the aim to raise 40 million dollars for treasury relief. Passed 205 to 1, the bill is seen as an emergency revenue measure on protective lines, repealing the current tariff until August 1, 1908 and restoring 60 percent of McKinley rates on wool, woollens, lumber, and carpets while increasing other schedules 16 percent. Debate was orderly, with Republicans and Democrats arguing about treasury needs and relief expectations.
