Coalition Hopes To Block House Tariff
Washington March 21 The Democratic Western coalition in the Senate may push the tariff fight back to the House as minority leaders consider forming a second coalition to adopt the Senate rate. The bill likely returns to the House next week with Roosevelties. Garner said he will seek a schedule by schedule vote on the Senate bill and invited Western Republicans to join. Rep Ramse r of Iowa weighed the plan as he prepares to address the House next week. If Ramser supports, Garner could push a Senate schedule adoption and a few measures before conference. The House, long aligned with leaders, may find Garner’s plan difficult but not impossible. The Senate bill now favors farmers with lower industrial and higher agricultural rates than the House bill.
