No Hope for Revision Tariff Policy Stated by Hansbrough
Senator Hansbrough, a strong protectionist, says tariff readjustment is dead and denounces standpatters for blocking change. He criticizes the Treasury stance on the Dingley drawback and condemns the shift in law interpretation while warning of a looming auto racy of standpatters and a toboggan slide of prosperity. He also rules out a reciprocity treaty with Canada, noting current benefits under Shaw’s policy.

Hearings on Rate Problems Delays for Senate leaders and guests
Interstate commerce hearings by the Senate committee disrupt summer plans of many prominent men. Senators forego speeches and trips abroad while witnesses on both sides of the railroad rate issue prepare to attend. Pierpont Morgah calls it the greatest problem in the world. Some expect a week, others a month or six weeks for the session. Beveridge and Hamilton plan statehood legislation within a month or two after Congress meets, aiming to push the bill through with minimal delay. Beveridge anticipates leisure after the initial period.
