NEWS FROM OUR
NATIONAL CAPITAL
Caucus Finishes Tariff Bill and
Conditions Seem to Favor
an Early Passage
Washington. The democratic tariff
revision bill with Ita aweeplng reduc
tions, a long free Hat and Its income
tax. is now ready for debate in the
house of representatlvea.
Chairman Underwood predicted that
the bill would be passed In the house
by May 16. Two months, the admin
Istratton leadera believe, la a gener
ous time to allot to the senate for Its
consideration and passage, and unless
It la decided to bring In a currency bill
thereafter, congress ahould be ready
to adjourn about July 16.
The bill, M approved by President
Wilson, cnme through the caucus un
scathed. Democratic opponenta to free
sugar In three years and to free raw
wool made the moat vigorous fights
on the president's suggestions adopted
by the ways and means committee, but
they were hopelessly outvoted.
Free List Increased
The caucus agreed to an amendment
to transfer buckwheat and rye to the
free Hat and to add savings banks "not
conducted for profit" to the list of
exemptions from the operation of the
Income tax. There waa no change In
the Item of wheat, on which the mill
era have been making a great fight,
because of the putting of flour on the
free Hat. The principal changea were:
Shoe machinery, buckwheat, rye,
rabbit fur and phosphoric acid, trans
ferred from dutiable to the free list;
onyx reduced from 66 cents to 60 cents
a cubic foot to put It on the aame ba
els as marble; dlnmnnds, uncut, are
unchanged, but cut dlamonda are In
oreaaed from 16 to 20 per cam; caator
oil la reduced from 16 to 12 per cent,
cod, aeal and herring oil. reduced from
i to S per cent; aperm oil reduced
from 6 to 3 per cent; vanlla beana re
duced from 60 to 30 carta a pound;
suits and other compounds and mix
tures of which bismuth, gold, platln
urn, rhodium, allver, tin and uranium
ocnatllute the chief value, cut from K
to 10 per c lit.
California Urged to Act Cautiously
Following the prcedent of previous
administrations Secretary Hryan In a
telegram to Oovernor Johnaon ex
pressed the view of President Wilson
that the California assembly measure
might be construed aa a violation of
treaty obligations with Japan, while
the aeuate's measure aa drawn would
not bo objectionable, If alien land leg
lalatlon Is to be enacted at all.
In this the federal government rec
ognlxea the sovereign right of Califor
nia to legislate according to Ita own
Judgment, bin the message counaelled
caution.
Assembly Bill Objectionable
The telegram and other Information
from offlelul circlet Indicated cleurly
that the provisions In th assembly
hill by which aliens "Ineligible to clt
Uenshlp" would be prohibited from
owning land were regarded aa a die
Unci discrimination against (he Japan
eae, who at present have not the right
of ' .'i. in. I". -111111 The language of
the senate bill restricting "ownership
of lands to cltlieus of the United
States or allena who have declared
their Intention of becoming cltlaeua"
la a. rosed by I he president, aa he
haa discovered that this Is the phrase
ology of the atatutes already In force
In New York, DuUwure, Kansas. Min
nesota, Kentucky, Washington, Mis
souri and the District of Columbia.
Incidentally, all these laws make It
Impossible for Japanese to own lands
until they are able to declare their In
tention of becoming cltiiens, a prlvl
lag which the lower conrta thua far
have not given them on the ground
that they are not of "white or African
descent "
