Cattle May Be Ob Kpee lAat.
Whether -to put cattle and oats on
the free list or whether to put a duty
on their products is 'one of the ab-
sorbing problems of the senate finance
committee just sow In revising the
I'nderwood tariff bill for senate con-
sideration. Senator Simmons chair-
man of the committee; John S. Wil-
liams chairman of the subcommittee
handling the agricultural schedules. J
and leader Underwood discussed the I
matter with president ' Wilson.
The president is reported to have
asreed with senators Williams and"
Simmors that raw materials and their
products in the agricultural schedule
should be equalized in the bill instead
of placing raw products on the duti-
able list and making meats and flour
free as in the bill at present. To
equalize them was determined upon
several weeks ago. and the senate
subcommittee is reported to have de-
ided also to put cattle sheep and
hoss and wheat and oats on the free
list
Whether the president agreed to free
listing of the raw materials or urged
that the agricultural products be made
dutiable in conformity to the Under-
v ood rates on raw materials was not
disclosed after the conference but
Democratic senators were resigned to
the generally accepted report that all
the articles 'would be place on the free
list
The cotton schedule is reported now
to be ery unsatisfactory in many In-
stances to the finance subcommittee
and it is to be generally rearranged
the duties in most cases to be in-
creased from the Underwood rates.
Irge RlgM Meat laHjteettoB.
The application of the rigid provis-
ions of the American meat inspection
law to imported meats was asked for
in petitions presented to the senate
by senator Sheppard of Texas from
the American National Livestock asso-
ciation the Cattle Raisers' association
of Texas the National Wool Growers
association and otlter livestock organi-
zations. The petitioners urged that the tariff
law be so changed as to establish the
full vigor of the Inspection against
meats that may be brought in under
the proposed tariff rates.
May Pay Reetaanf Delegates.
Payment of expenses by the govern-
ment to delegates of reclamation pro-
ject settlers who attended the recent
reclamation conference held here by
secretary Lane of the interior depart
ment is proposed in a resolution Intro- .
duced Dy senator Asnurst ine ex-
penses amounted to about $12000.
T Piwfce Tariff Lobby.
After a sharp debate over terms the
senate adopted a resolution instructing
the Judiciary committee to investigate
the cnarge tnat a loDDy is being main-
tained in Washington or elsewhere to
influence pending legislation with par-
ticular emphasis on its effort for or
against the Underwood tariff bill now
before the finance committee. The
resolution was in direct response to
the public statement made by president
Wilson that an insidious lobby 'with
plenty of money was operating against
the tariff bills.
WIImb Will FhfbMi Names.
President Wilson in his talk with
newspaper correspondents declared he
was in sympathy with the proposed in-
vestigation and would be glad to fur-
nish the names of the lobbyists to
whom he referred if "public necessity
required " He added that if a senate
committee were charged with the in-
v estimation it would hare ample pow-
ers to obtain information.
Under the resolution which was
adopted as introduced by senator Cum-
mins w ith amendments by senator
Kern the judiciary committee is di-
rected to report its findings within 10
lays and hearings probably will begin
at once.
Criticise Civil Service.
In a report to the senate by president
Wilson the economy and efficiency
( ommittee severely arraigned the oper-
ation of the United States civil service
laws declared that the effort to dis
tribute appointmrnts proportionately
among the different states greatly had I
reaucea tne eiriciency oi leaeral em-
ployes and caused the government loss
in the quality of its professional labor.
The commission recommended that
the attempt to give each state its share
of federal jobs at Washington be
greatly modified: that a mark of 85
be set as the standard by which the
tirst choice of applicants shall be
made; and that all of the eligible per-
sons "standing over 85 be elected first
notwithstanding the fact that several
ttates may still lack their quota.
Tat Draft Currency Bill.
Democratic leaders in congress inter-
ested in currency reform have invited
president Wilson to frame a bill from
the three diafts presented by senator
Owen and rpreeritanve Glass heads of
the !tt congressional committees on
banking and currency and secretary
McAdoo of the treasury department
The president has let it be known
that while he considered the request a
penerous one he did not feel competent
to write a detailed measure and would
turn over the task of condensing the
three bills to secretary McAdoo. indi-
ating first his approval of different
sections in each.
The president said that these three
measures were the only ones before him
at present and that the present object
of the currency conference was to reach
a common agreement on a measure to
be launched in congress within a short
time. There it will be subjected the
president hopes to the freest criticism
by all parties. In order that a non-partisan
measure may be passed.
RegiitBal Reserve Basks.
The central ideas or the three bills
ihe president said were the same. He
gave no information as to their con-
tents but it is known that the meas-
ures would provide a system of regional
reserve banks from 10 to 15 in number.
These institutions would be coordinate
in their powers and besides receiving a
portion of the reserves of banks in their
districts would serve as banks of dis-'-.nnt
for their member
No attempt it is said will be made to
establish a national rate discount but
o. me:hod by which the uniformity of
lates in these regions would' be ob-
tained is suggested.
