Tariff Bill Nearing End In House With Possible Passage
Washington May 1 The tariff debate in the House moves toward final action on the Wilson Underwood bill. Underwood says passage is certain and hints it may occur late tonight. The session narrowed the income tax base to a minimum of one thousand dollars and debated administrative features including a tariff commission. The measure was opposed by provisions for reciprocal treaties, Philippine imports tax, Porto Rico export exemptions, retaliatory duties, and a ten percent subsidy for goods imported on American ships.
