These Much Mooted Subjects Are the
Stumbling Blocks of the
Tariff Schedule
DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY IN THE SENATE IS SLIGHT
IT IS BELIEVED THE UNDERWOOD BILL WILL CARRY BUT
MUCH INTEREST IS EVINCED IN PARTY CAUCUS WHICH
IS EXPECTED TO BRING DEVELOPMENTS.
By
Associated Press.
WASHINGTON. May 23. Wool and sugar the stumbling
blocks of the tariff had the attention of the senate finance sub-committees
and senators in general today. The executive air is filled
with rumors of contemplated changes and alliances and counter ru-
mors of further tightening of the administration forces for free wool
and free sugar in three years.
Great interest was attached to the public statement made by
Walsh of Montana condemning the proposition to put wool and sugar
on the free list which gave rise to the report that he would join
with Ransdall and Thornton of Louisiana and vote against the bill.
In that case the senate Democratic majority being only six. the vote
would be a tie necessitating the vote of Vice President Marshall to
pans it. Should this develop there are some Democrats who believe
Poindexter. the only avowed Progressive in the senate will vote with
them on the bill.
Administration leaders declared the situation relating to the
much disputed schedules looked favorable for the Underwood bill
but they look forward to an interesting session in the party caucus
when southern and western representatives will have an opportunity
to make a determined struggle
William Whitman leader in
consideration had a conference with the sub-committee attacking
the woolen manufacturers' schedule and Henry T. Oxnard head of
the delegation representing the beet sugar interests also appeared
before the sub-committee handling the sugar schedule.

Gathers in Washington to Consider
Various Plans for Stregth-

SOME LEADERS BELIEVE SUCH A MEETING THIS FALL
WOULD BE PREMATURE BUT PROGRESSIVES URGE
A CALL OF THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE

WASHINGTON. May 23.
utive Committee which will meet
lea D. Hillea chairman of the
primarily the advisability of calling an early meeting of the National
Committee to consider plans for strengthening party lines prepara-
tory to the next Congressional Convention. Before determining to
call the committee together it will be decided whether the time if
ripe for beginning of the organization for the future or whether it
will be better to wait until the
has proceeded farther on its way;
tariff law has been written into the statutes and its effect upon the
country analyzed.
Some party leaders believe that plans for a reorganization meet-
ing of the National Convention this fall is premature and would
chiefly be to consider the advisability of a convention that the Na-
tional committee would meet. The Progressive wing will urge the
executive committee to issue a call to the national committee.
The conciliation committee named as the result of the recent
Chicago conference met today in Senator Cummins' office and de-
cided to send a letter to the committee asking that the natnional
committee be assembled and setting forth Progressive Republicans
views as to reorganization of the party changes in delegates' repre-
sentations methods of handling contests and other matters. This
letter will be sent to the executive committee and member of the
concilation committee expect they may be called upon to appear
before the committee to further express their views.
