Capitol Notes Faction Talks Tariff Reform Strategy
Democratic senators on the Senate Finance Committee met in Washington to plan sharp cuts to proposed industrial tariff increases in the Republican bill. Senator Simmons of North Carolina led the talks with minority tariff leader Borah backing a defeat of the current form to reduce economic inequality between agriculture and industry. Sim ons warned that retaining high industrial rates would undermine any claim of agricultural relief, while Republicans maintained changes to administration features and a flexible tariff provision. Northern clubs, Kiwanians, Rotary, Lions and Quota groups coordinated invitations for a regional gathering, with a luncheon sale slated for August 28 and a final planning session to follow.
