(P Increasing algris of a spirited con test in the senute over tho partv old issue of tariff were apparent at Ihe vapltol toduy us Democrat revealed plans to broaden the at tack to be made against the bill, as revised by Republican members of the finance connnltteo. The minority disclosed It 'In tended lo direct Ita drive against not only many proposed higher levies, but also against scorea of Hx.Hting rates, which it regards as unduly high and In ncd of re vision downward. Amendment will he prepared on virtually every Industrial Item In the measure. Details of these and other phases of the Democrat!---prog rum will be worked out next week at dally meetings ol the eight cmocrata on tho finance committee. From the Republican camp word also went out during the day that the tariff would be kept con Htantly before the uenuto until dis posed of. with no other huslnesi allowed to displace It. In addition, from high Republl- can councils, there was luaued R warning that uhould a filibuster develop, endangering puaaage- of the proposed legislation at th special HeaHlon or curly in the regular session, a movo would lx made to deTer action on tho tariff for anothur. yca,i - - Hndei' no-Vlrcunistnncea, It wu wild, would tho Itepublleans couh teuanee any effort to poatpnne ac tion fur Into thq. refftilar session, beginning In Docember or until the time of the spring primary campaign for the next congres sional elections.

"am be ginning lo feel the urfMiseil' In dignation of the Amerlean people. ' They have, retreated step by step and now am only looking for some excuse to exti'l-ate them selves from the position ihey have taken." 0 I mil pad of a filibuster, Harrison said there "Is going to be orderly. reuMHiabto debate." The Demo crats, he added, would "not bo bludgeoned by coercion or threats from n full and frank dluaalnn oT every Item and a record vote on the Mir otiH Increase In present duties and on amendment a th.it will be offered upon th floor." "That is what Ihe country wanls. and lhat Is what Iho Denio. mH- minority will demand," he aaserted. -adding that the measure was Indefensible, that the Repuh I can leadership was bi ginning to see litis, and thsf "Leader Wat soiih iiiiivk Is the Tirst tp In the relreHl."
