UNDERWOOO BILL IS A'I’TA.Cl(EDr
BY SEN. GALLlNGER.
WASHINGTON, I). C... May 3.-Sen-t
ator Jacob H. Gallinger of New liar;
en, made an attack on the l ndcrwood E
Simmons tarifl bill in lht- Senate to:
day and predicted that the ltepublt-.'
can party will soon be again in power;
and that one of its first acts will be‘
to revise the tariff to protect the coun»
try‘s business interests.
He presented to the Senate a dour.
ment which he termed " A Tariff‘
Tale" and which proved to be a care-
fully prepared table showing the in-
crease of imports under the Under
wood-Simmons tartlf law in war timesl
as compared with the imports under'
the PaynoAldrlch act in times of!
peace.
"it is a significant showing," said
Senator (lattinger. "and absolutely:
sets at rest the contention that theI
industrial interests of the country are.
as safe in the hands of the Democrat-
ic party as the Republican party.
1 "The truth is that had not the war
in Europe. occurred the imports
would have been even greater than
they have been during the period of
, the European conflict.
. “But. as it is. the increase has been
great enough to alarm the business
interests of the country, and to serve
as a warning of what will doubtless
take place when the European war
comes to a close. The present indict»
tions are that when it arrives the Re-
publicsn party will again be in power,
and a revision of the tariff that will
tadcqtiately protect the interests of all
classes of our people will be among
the first acts of the new administra.
‘lion. The figures I give here and
‘wblch undeniably prove my conten-
tions are taken from official sources,
‘itnd are absolume correct in every
Iparticular.
