Payne Defends Tariff Policy In House Debate
The House opened tariff debate with Mr Payne of New York defending protectionism as an American policy. He argued the Dingley bill boosted revenue and national finances, citing $125,000,000 in surplus over ordinary expenses and $196,000,000 cash on hand to meet deficits. He denied a Panama Canal revenue windfall and dismissed a rumor of treasury bankruptcy, insisting every warrant is paid. The proceedings touched on liquor tax opposition and farm protection, with adjournment after four hours and a promise to resume tomorrow.
