FOR PEACE NEGOTIATIONS
Washington, April 14. The Can­
adian reciprocity bill introduced in the
house yesterday was reported favor­
ably to the house today by the new
way* and mean* committee.
The
committee ulso pan»«*! favorably on
the free list tariff measure, but will
not report until tomorrow.
The Canadian reciprocity treaty bill
was taken up first by the committee,
and, after a brief discussion, McCall,
it* *)*>n*or in the ill st congress, moved
that it be approved. This was done
without division.
The free list bill, however, ws* not
unanimously approved, the vote on it
in the committee having been a strictly
party vote, the Democrat* favoring it
and the Republicans being solidly
against it. The Republican member«,
with Sereno Payne a* spokesman, de­
clared that the propose«! bill was hasty
and ill-advised, that the meaaure had
not been referred to the tariff board
and that Chairman Underwood arxi hi*
Democratic colleague* on the commit-
tee ha«l not sufficient data to show
what effect the change* would have.
When the house met, Underwixx!

tee.
The reciprocity bill will be
call«*! up tomorrow for discussion.
