Sherman Talks First Tariff Debate on Revenue and Protection

In Washington Oct 8 Mr Allison reported back the House tariff bill with a substitute and scheduled a Friday printing. Sherman said he would leave the city this afternoon and address the Senate on the bill praising the sub committee’s work and arguing the Senate substitute offers a better revenue and protection framework. He cited reductions in sugar tobacco and alcohol taxes and urged passage as a comprehensive reform distinct from the House measure. The Senate resumed debate on General Hale’s War Department inquiry as Cockrell countered Hale’s criticism of civil service practices and Benet’s circular with remarks on political funding and administrative loyalty.
