and giving the President authority tc

Allied interference with American
trade, was passed by the Senate. The
vote was 4L' to 16. Five Republican
Senators. Cummings. Kenyon. LaFolle'te,
Norris and C'app voted for the
bill.
Eliminating the usual formalities in
order to Insure early adjournment ot"
Congress, the Senate rushed the measure.
the last on the Administration
legislative program, immediately to
conference.
The Senate conferees appointed
were Senators Simmons. Williams.
Hoke Smith. Hughes, Penrose, Snioot
and McCumber.
Fights Tariff Commission.
The Senate was in session until
after midnight. It practically hail
completed the bill earlier but toward
midnight Senator Underwood moved
to strike out the section which would
create a tariff commission and began
a last fight against this provisiou
which already had been agrcd to.
By a vote of 55 to 5 the Senate rejected
Senator Underwood's motion,
thus retaining the tariff commission
section of the bill. Senators who
voted to eliminate it were Bankhead.
Hardwick. Shields, Underwood ana
Vardaman.
A motion by Senator Penrose to
send the bill back to the Finance
Committee with instructions that it
report a measure to raise revenues by
a protective tariff and with special
provisions for industrial defense was
rejected by a vote of S3 to 21. Sen
ator L&Follette was the only Republican
to vote no.
To increase Government revenue
the bill provides for doubling the
normal tax and increasing the surtaxes
on incomes; a>. inheritance tax;
a net profit tax on manufacturers of
munitions of war. a license tax on
stock of corporations capitalized at
more than $09,000; excise tax on
beer, wines and liquors and miscellaneous
stamp taxes.
The bill also crentes a United States
tariff commission of six members
whose salaries shall he $7,500 a year

tl.em to $10,000; provides for increased
tariff duties on dyestuffs to encourage
their manufacture in this
country and makes provision to safeguard
against dumping of foreignmade
goods after the European war
Into American markets.
Webb's Bill at Issue.
Drastic amendments to the bill
striking at the Allied blacklisting of
American merchants, discrimination
against American commerce, interference
with American mails and embargoes
on American trade were incorporated
in the bill to arm the
President with retaliatory weapons.
These amendments have created consternation
among diplomatic representatives
of the Allied Powers In
Washington who assert that if finally
enacted as now seems certain, they
would constitute a non-intercouse act.
Passage of the bill and adjournment
of Congress were threatened
for a time by an attempt to attach
*o the measure the Webb bill desired
by the President, permitting American
firms to establish collective selling
agencies abroad.
When Senator Lewis of Illinois,
uuiunicu wit* diii as an amendment
he wan promptly assured by Senator
LaFollette that it would provikc pro
longed discussion, if pressed. Senator
Lewis thereupon withdrew the
amendment, announcing that it would
be pressed as a separate measure,
having already passed the house earlv
!n the December session.
Late at night vain effort was made
by Senator Hunting of Wisconsin to
amend the bill by providing for pub
Hcltv, in the discretion of the Presl
dent of the Income tax returns of In
dlvidua1*
Retaliation Against Britain.
Amendments designed to provide
means of retaliation against Great
Britain for embargoes on American
goods, the trade blacklist and inter
ference with the malts, were agreed
to without roll calls and were unop
posed In debate.
The bill creates a tariff comrnts
alon, recommended by President WH
eon to consist of six members, not
more than three of whom shall be ol
one political party, the first member*
to be appointed for terms of 2. 4. 8
10 and 12 years, respectively, to b?
designated by the President.
