" Correspondence Solicited. - : Foot of Fowtb Stmt TO THE TARIFF RATES E COMMITTEES ARE ALREADY ARRANGING FOR STUDY OF QUESTION TO STUDY FOREIGN PRICES Already Eastern Manufacturers Are . . Making Known Their Demands For Free Raw Material, While Western Produces Arr Ask Some Protection WASHINGTON, Aug. '3l.-The work which has been begun by Sen ator Burrows' sub-committee on the administrative features of the propos ed tariff revision will be followed by similar labor by another sub-commit tee of the Senate committee on fi nance, of which Mr. Hopkins of Illi nois is chairman. ,Mr. Hopkins' com mittee is composed of himself ond Senators Burrows, Penrose, Money and Taliaferro. To this committee is entrusted the groat burden of the la bor of preparing a bill for the Senate, as it is directed to "Consider what changes in the custom' rates arc desir able and to secure proof of the rela tive cost of production in the United States and other competing countries." While in Washington, recently at tending the meeting of the Burrows committee, Senator Hopkins stated li.it he would not call his organization together until some time during the. Fall. In the meantime, however, he will ask the departments of State, Ag riculture and Commerce and Labor, to procure such information for him as they can through their representatives abroad with a view to upply the com mittee tne best intormation possible in conducting its comparisons. When the committee meets it will immed iately take up the subject ofthe ef fect of possible changes, .not only up on labor, but upoi the various indus tries of the country and will undertake to decide, insofar as it can, what changes in the tariff are desirable from all points of view. That Mr. Hopkins appreciated the magnitude of this in quiry is made manifest by the prepar ation that he is making. He also ap prehends no little difficulty in recon ciling the conflicting interests which are always involved in tariff changes. Already the eastern manufacturers are making known their demands for ree raw' material, while the western producers are beginning to stand out stiffly for the protection of such ar ticles as wool, hides, and ores. The Senate Finance committee has no purpose of trying to rob the sen ate committee on Ways and Means of its prerogative of originating tariff legislation, but is simply preparing it- -self for the intelligent consideration of the subject, as the house bills teach the senate. It is understood that members of the house committee are 1 making preparation for the proposed ; legislation though none of them have ! come to Washington for that purpose. It is believed that by taking up the I work at this early date, much time . can be saved and that the special ses- , sion which is to be called after the fourth of March, the tariff legislation will be materially shortened. Senator Hopkins expressed the opinion that a long session for that purpose would not be necessary. FINANCIAL J. Q. A. BOWLBY. President O. I. PETERSON, Vice-President FRANK PATTON, Cashier J. W.
