Wpsatfngton, May -h?The Under wood tariff revision bill is expected to pass this week- from Us scene of rushed consideration In tho house to be weighed In the steady balance of a senate deliberation. It probably will be passed In the bouse not later than Wednesday night, just as it came from the ways and means committee with free raw wool, free sugar in three years, its Income tax, free meat, free Hour and sweeping reductions in live stock and manufactured articles. When the Democratic majority thunders out its chorus of approval as the bill is put upon its passage in i the bouse, the measure will be just one month old and its champions pre dict that within two months more it will have the approval of the senate and ,soon thereafter be inscribed on the statute books over the signature of the Democratic president. President Wilson, if he proposes to ask congress for currency legislation at the extra session, has not yet made known any definite suggestion relat ing to it but house leaders will learn before many days his plans in that regard. Whatever is in store, the low er branch of congress has determined to complete the formation of standing committees and it will be ready for any emergency while the senate is milling over the tariff. Will be Heady. Although the senate finance commit tee, to which the tariff bill formally will be referred when it comes from the house, has not determined upon a programme of procedure, it lias been Informally considering the hill for a month and will be ready before many days to announce its plans, Sena tor Simmons, chairman, divided the committee into three sections and the subcommittees are studying tho va rious schedules and sections of the measure to report to the full commit tee will? recommendations as soon as possible. When tho subcommittees in the senate have reported tho commit tee will decide upon its course. Tints far the majority senators have been of the mind that the bill should not be delayed for public bearing, but in sistent demands from many interests for such a hearing may bring about a change of views. It is an open secret that the presi dent, the finance committee and the ways and means committee have had ah understanding that tho 1 >f11 should bo' revised In all essential particulars in the house If there are to he any changes but whether this agreement can be maintained remains to he seen, j Certain it is however, that the ma-| Jorlty senators do not contemplate material changes If It is possible to avoid them. The sugar schedule with its imme diate 25 per cent, reduction and free sugar in three years, is almost cer tain to remain as it is. Wool might come out eventually witli a slight duy, Western senators keeping up their demand foi it and continuing to confer with the president in an ef fort to induce him to yield from his determination for free raw wool. The only other changes that seem at all likely relate to live stock and possibly the pottery schedule. There is a de termined minority on the Democratic side demanding that cattle, sheep and hogs should be put on the free list along with food products and another In the group of Democrats clamoring for an increase in the pottery sched ule. All these things Democratic leaders assert will be determined be fore the bill is reported in the senate for debate. As to currency legislation at this session, it is known that the temper of the house is against It. Tho house banking and currency committee will he organized, however, as soon as pos sihic. Representative Carter D. Class of Virginia, who will be its chairman, plans to confer with President Wilson this week in an effort to get Iiis defi nite ideas on the. currency. It is prob ahle that the president's message on currency will be ready before the tariff bill is out of the way. Latest indications are that he will urge the investigation of the problem and the drafting of a bill in time for congress when it convenes in regular session next December. Tills will meet with I the approval of house and senate leaders. On Currency Reform. Already the senate bankiug and currency committee bus begun Its I work, a subcommittee 'having been ap pointed, last week to draft a series of I questions relating to curronoj reform to be sent to bankers and financial experts throughout the country. When these have been answerel hearings may he ordered. In the meantime the committee may determine to call be fore it. men of standing in the finan cial world to supplement the hear iims begun by the currency branch ofj the house committee last winter. As soon as the tariff bill leaves the house the ways and means commit tee will begin to make up the house! committees with the army of new members to he assigned. Mr. Ull-I derwood has estimated' that this task will take two or three weeks. Few important changes in chairmanships j are contemplated. Fitzgerald of Now York will retain chairmanship of ap propriations; Henry of Texas already, has been renamed chairman of the] rules committee; Clayton of Alabama I Is expected again to head judiciary; Alexander of .Missouri, merchant ma rine; Adamson of Georgia, interstate and foreign commerce; Flood of Vir OCmmltetes may he changed in some instances. Lever of South Carolina is slated for the agriculture chairman ship in place of Lamb, Virginia, re tired. The house this week will have be fore It tin alleged assault on Repro sonative Sims hy C. C. Clover, a| Washington banker. The recommen dation of the special committee that Mr. Glover he arrested and brought before the bar of the house will bei taken vtp its soon as the tariff hill is passed. Interesting developments are| expected.
