Congress Debates Tariff and Bearings on Seats
The Senate opened tariff debate and discussed the Simmons resolution to require disclosure of taxpayer benefits from higher rates. Senator Norris of Nebraska urged an immediate decision to bar William S. Ware of Pennsylvania from the Senate. An amendment to apply tariff rates to Philippine goods was introduced by Senator Groussard. President Hoover nominated Leland Harrison for Uruguay minister and Theodore Roosevelt for Porto Rico governor. Henry Tord urged another Muscle Shoals bid. William F. Brock began a Tennessee Senate term replacing the late Tyson. The Senate meets at noon to continue tariff talks and consider Norris’s ware seating bid. The Senate naval committee also acts on Barab’s request to probe William B. Shearer over disarmament opposition.
