House Accepts Tariff Report Amid Bipartisan Endorsement
The House approved the conference report on the tariff bill by 254 to 108 after a brief, partisan debate. Underwood asserted the measure would raise about 62 million dollars next year plus 29 million from corporate taxes, with total revenue near 91 billion in 1915 and a national expenditure balance of 15 billion. Several Democrats opposed the tax plan, while Republicans and some Progressives supported the main report, and a minority urged sending the issue to another session.
