Demos in quandary by Mack Sullivan Washington d. Aug. 3 a the Republican members of the Senate finance committee Are writing a Tariff in which the rates on the whole Are lower than those in the Bill As it passed the House. This is indisputable and is sensational considering the Assumption Universal eight weeks ago that the Senate would write a higher version than the House. It is be borne in mind of course that what the finance committee writes is merely a tentative Bill. It constitutes the initial draft which will be introduced on the Senate floor. The Senate As a whole can make any change it chooses. Quite certainly the Senate will make an immense number of changes. This constitutes a decided qualification the finality of what the Senate finance committee is now doing. Nevertheless this first draft As written by the committee will have decided j measurable weight. It will constitute so speak the official recommendation of the committee and the committee includes the most important leaders of the majority Republican party in the Senate. It is difficult conceive these leaders later on i working openly in the Senate against rates they have written into their own draft. Method is disingenuous there is a possible second qualification the importance of what the Republican members of the finance committee Are now doing. This qualification is brought Forward by democrats and other critics. They charge that writing a draft which As a whole is lower than the House draft is disingenuous. They say the achievement of a lower average rate Bill As a whole is effected in the main by reducing the rates on commodities on which the Tariff does not matter. According this charge or suspicious prediction the committee under cover of conspicuously lowering duties on immaterial commodities will retain High rates or raise the rates on commodities that do matter. This charge has run through the atmosphere of Washington Ever since it was said the Senate would reduce the level of rates. Such disingenuous Ness As this charge imputes is not unknown in the politics of either party. But a rather spectacular even though partial answer this charge against the republicans is the fact that the committee has decided take off the duties which the House put upon shingles logs and most forms of lumber. This was one of the four features of the House Bill that gave Rise the uprising in the West. As against this action on the lumber schedule it is commonly accepted that the Senate committees draft will retain the rates which the House put upon bricks and Cement. Whether the Senate draft As a whole achieves a Good Faith average reduction on material commodities will not be known until the draft becomes Public late the coming month. Two stages ahead looking Forward what the ultimate Tariff will be it must be borne in mind there Are two stages ahead. One is the action of the Senate As a whole. The other is the conference Between Senate and House. In that conference any rate changed in the Senate May be restored what the House made it. Much will depend on the psychology existing at that time both the immediate psychology of the capital and the psychology of the country. In the shape the Tariff situation has come have the most decisive element is the democratic party. Events have Crystal led far enough show that if the democrats stand substantially solid for lower rates lower rates will come about. In that statement the Uncertain equation is a substantially the democratic National committee has carried on a Campaign against the Tariff of such Energy and with such publicity As increase the difficulty of democratic senators breaking away and trading with the republicans write High rates. Nevertheless. One would need be both a very Good Democrat and a very Good Optimist about political human nature believe the democrats will stand anywhere near solid for Low rates. The fact is that on this Point the attitude of Washington is not optimistic at All but characteristically cynical. Democrats in quandary Many democrats As individuals Thant High rates on specific commodities quite As much As any republicans. Three democratic senators come from states which Are energetically demanding increased Protection on textiles and on shoes. At least four democrats come from states asking Protection on Long Staple Cotton. At least two democrats come from states wanting a duty on figs. At least two. And perhaps three or four democrats want a higher Tariff on sugar. A formidable group of democrats demand a protective Tariff against jute. Some of these democrats Are capable of standing by their party program at the expense of the desires of their states. The question is whether a Large enough group of these democrats want what they want with sufficient intensity be willing Grant what the other fellow wants. In the Senate Are 95 members with one vacancy. A majority is forty eight. The republicans have normally fifty five. Of the fifty five however at East twelve Are insurgents who will vote for Low rates on manufactured goods at least. That reduces the effective Republican strength forty three. The republicans need at least five out of the thirty nine democrats.
