Washington, D. C. — Money-raising legislation occupied the attention of congressional committees at each end of the capitol thia week, with the senate finance committee holding hearings on the Fordney tariff bill, and the house ways and means com­ mittee discussing the new tax bill. Although the tariff bill, pawed by the house and designed to raise about half a billion dollars in revenue an­ nually, was going into Its second stage, interest was somewhat subord­ inated to the tax measure which must produce more than seven times as much. The tariff bill, estimated by Chair­ man Fordney to raise around $500,- 000,000 in revenue annually, was passed by the house by a vote of 289 to 127.
