Notwlthetandtng. Underwood, aa chair man of tha Koosa oomralttee on ways and meana tonight was Insistent la tha prediction that tha revenue bill will be approved by a big majority. "In my Judgmant." L'nderwood said In answer to Bryan, "his statement la un just and unfair ta tha memtxtra of tha ways and meana committee and to the Democratic Representative la Congress who wi:i support the MX "Tit wsj e and meana committee aaa rut In half th whole wool achedule, They have reduced the duties on manu factured goods aa low aa thry were un der ths Wilson bill that Mr. Bryan voted for when raw wool was placed on the free list, in that reduction they have fallen short of the S4V.000.fi00 now raised by wool by ln.0o0.00i. and It la nrcea sary In order to aecure this revenue to place a revenue tax on raw wool Im ported Into the United Ptatea. "Under tha high rates of the Payne tariff bin the tax on raw wool was high ly competitive, nearly one-halt of the wool used in this country being Import sd. When tba rates on raw wool are cut mora than one-half. It is absolutely at a competitive rate levied solely for tha purpose of revenue without any of tha essentials of a protective tariff. Underwood said that In the tariff bill the ways and means committee have gone even further than a gradual reduc tion In tha tariff to which the Demo crauc party in its last platform wag committed. "If the Wilson bill, which Mr. Bryan voted for, waa an honest reduction of the tariff In the Interest of the people, a bill that reduces ths tjtxe on woolen gooas which tne people buy as low under the bill Bryan voted for and advo rated. It certainly cannot be a protec tlva measure from this standpoint. The fact that in reducing these taxes on woolen -roods, we have levied a small tax on the manufacturers does not In any way Increase the burden to the pur chaser or woolen goods. The Democratic leader explained that the party and leaders are confronted by a aexiciency; mat tne greatest need for more money; that the Government needs more money and that the Income tax amendment la yet unratified. He said the committee. In reducing the tariff, hsa so to write the schedules that they would bring at teast as much revenue as does the present law. ina committee contends that by re ducing tha rate and making the tariff more competitive more goods will com in ana tnue supply the revenue. inder the Alison bill the tariffs on wool have about 40 per cent ad valorem. a figure comparing closely with those in tne cm to be made public next Thurs day.

Dissenting; Judge Himself Followed Rale of Reason Xo Action Taken Towards Criminal Fros ecntion of Trust Chiefs. WASHINGTON. May JO. Tbat the Government mean to formulate Its anti-trust policies in accord with the "rule of reason" as laid down by the Supreme Court of the United State In the Standard Oil and tobacco decisions, notwithstanding the vigorous dissent of Assistant Justice Harlan and tha manr bllla Introduced In the Senate to amend the Sherman anti-trust law. waa made evident today. Administration officials, after a day's consideration and atudy of the tobacco declalon and after a thorough compari son with the Standard Oil decision. were agreed that the "rule of reason' no new feature of the Supreme Court's interpretation of law, and one member of the Cabinet, whose views hsve alwaya been regarded aa reflect ing those of the Administration, made conprehenslve atatement to that ef fect. The atatement waa attributed to an "official cloae to the Administra tion." It follows In part: Cabinet Stands by Majority. "Justice Harlan. In his dissenting; opinion In tha tobacco case, objects vigorously to the application In the construction of the act of Congress of the rule of reason, to which atten tion waa called by the Chief Justice In his opinion In the Standard Oil case and again in the tobacco case. Justice Harlan says to insert by construction the word 'unreasonable' or 'undue' in the Sherman act la Judicial legislation. "Congress, he says, in language so clear and simple that there is no room whatever for other construction, signi fied Its purpose to forbid every re straint of trade In whatever form, to whatever extent, whereaa the court. under the Chief Justice's opinion. In serts In the law words which make Congress say that It meana only to pro hibit undue restraint of trade. "This he objects to as amounting to a readlnar Into the act by Judicial leg islation of an exception not placed there by the law-making; branch of the Government and this, he contends, the court cannot and ought not to do. Harlan Changed His Mind. "But Justice Harlan ha not alway regarded the Judicial function -as ex cluding the right to Interpret atatutea In the light of reason and to refuse a literal application to the words of the act where that Involves a manifest wrong. In tha case of tha church of the Holy Trinity against the United States, the court had under considera tion tha act of Congress known aa the alien Immigration act. passed February 16. 1S9. "The Church of th Holy Trinity in New York: had made a contract with Rev. E. Walpola Warren, an alien re siding In England, to remove to New York and enter Into Its service aa its rector and pastor for a compensation to be paid to blm; and because ot that contract, an action was brought against tha church by the United States to recover the penalty preacribed for a violation ot this act. Justice Brewer wrote the opinion of the court in which all the Justice. Including- Justice Har lan, concurred. He premised by con ceding 'that ths act of the corporation la within the letter of this section. for the relation of rector to hi church la on ot service and Implies labor on th on side, with compensation on the other.' "He further noted that certain spe cific exceptions made In the act in which clergymen were not Included. strengthened the Idea that every other kind of labor and service was Intended to be reached by the statute. Yet not withstanding all of that It waa said thst that court could not think that Congress Intended to denounce with penalties a transaction like the era- nlovraent of a Christian minister. It Is a familiar rule,- aam justice Brewer, that a thing may be within the letter of the atatute and yet not within the statute, in It spirit nor Ithin the Intention of Its makers. This haa been often asserted and the reports are full ot caaes illustrating lta application. Court Seeks Intent of Law. This Is not the substitution of the will of the Judge for that of the Leg islature, for frequently words of gen eral meaning were used In a statute. words broad enough to Include any act In question and yet a consideration of the whole legislation or of the circum stances snrrounding its enactment, or of the absurd results which follow from giving such broad meaning; to the words, makes It unreasonable to bellev that tha Legislature Intended to In clude the particular act.' The whole of thla opinion consti tutes. In effect, an argument tnat a literal Interpretation should not be given to the atatute. The court which concurred In that opinion included Chief Justice Fuller and Assistant Jus tlcea Brewer and Brown. These Jurist deliberately adjudged tbat a case, which consentedly was within the Jur isdiction of the statute although not within the merits, was not within the intention of Congress. This was noth ing more or less than applying to the construction and application of the statute the rule of construction In voked by the Chief Justice in tha Standard Oil case, namely, that of ex amining the case by the light of rea son, lest the literal construction and application cause a restraint of all trade and commerce wmcn it Is tne purpose of th statute to prevent. Or aa was aald In the Joint Traffic case by Justice Peckham himself. "The act of Congress must have a reasonable construction or else there would scarcely be an agreement or contract among business men that could not be Id to have Indirectly or remotely some bearing on Interstate commerce and possibly to restrain It.' Rule of Reason Is Old. The decision In the case of Holy Trinity Church clearly demonstrated that ne new principle I Introduced by th rule of construction adopted by th court la th case of th Standard Oil and the tobacco case, but that the same rule waa applied there which has often been applied before, of reading general worda In a statute by tha light of the reason for the enactment of the statute, th possibility of the evil which gave rise to the legislation and the J Move Made for Prosecution. A resolution calling upon the Attorney-General to inform the House whether he had undertaken criminal prosecution of the American Tobacco Company and Us officers was Intro duced today by Representative Burna, of Tenneasee. If such prosecution h not been instituted the Attorney-Gen- era! 1 requested to explain his position. The resolution names specifically all the constituent companies of the to bacco corporatlona together with their officers. Neither the Attorney-General nor any other official would make any state ment today on the probable course ot the Government regarding criminal prosecutions of the individual defend ants in tha trust cases. Delicate legal problema are involved and no decision may be reached for several days. The President and Cabinet win not further define anti-trust policies for several months. NO LOOPHOLE REMATXS I3T LAW Kellogg Says Any Monopoly Can Be Reached Under Decision. ST. PAUL, May 30. "Taking the Standard Oil caae and the Tobacco case together. I cannot see any loophole, through which the trusts can escape.' Any combination or monopoly, what ever form it -takes, can be reached un der tha rule laid down In these deci sions." That was he statement today of Frank B. Kellogg, tho successfully prosecuted the Standard Oil dissolution suit on behalf of the Government. 'I can find no cauBe for uneasiness In the -recently enunciated doctrine of ree.sonable restraint.' " he continued. I ujdge that the Government won on ev ery contention In the Tooacco caao and that the case Is simply sent back to en able the court below to enter a decree completely to sever the various prop erties conveyed to the American To bacco Company. "Tnere waa no neccesslty for sending the Standard Oil Case baci because the decree in the court below was a com plete severance of the corporations." Wreck's Death List Reaches 16.
