Taft urges cotton tariff revision after vetoes
Washington March 26. President Taft sent to Congress a tariff revision message for cotton goods and a tariff board report with an emergency $60,000 appropriation to resume work. House leader Oscar W Underwood maintains the house will not revise tariffs without senate and president approval. He views the move as an attempt to embarrass the house and shift focus to cotton tariffs. The cotton tariff needs further action.

Taft Tariff Board Findings on Cotton Yarn Duties
The Taft administration cites board findings showing cotton yarn duties far exceed production cost differentials between the United States and England. It notes yarn duties often reflect distribution costs and that consumer prices rise beyond mill prices, with variation by fabric type and weaving efficiency. The president asks for 360,000 for April to June to continue investigations into metal leather chemical and sugar schedules.
