PXGE TWELVE MEDFORD HXTL TRIBUJsT;. rEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, MAY 18, 1934. ROOSEVELT JIFF PLAN SPECULATION SAYS G1R SOLON Wl Hand President Ninety . Billion Dollars Worth of 'Blue Chips, Claims Van .denberg Hope to Win '" ity D. HAROLD OI.IVBR (Associated Press Staff Writer.) WASHINGTON, May 18 IF) The administration reciprocal tariff bill was described today by Senator Van denberg (R., Mich.) as "blind specu lation In which we hand the Presi dent $90,000,000,000 worth of blue chips, that being the normal value Of our domestic markets." "Wo are hoping against hope that we may win," he told the senate, "but fearing against well-grounded tear that we shall lose as usual." Joining the Republican attack on the legislation, Senator Davis (R pa.) said It would permit presidential advisors to "bargain away and ruin" Industries overnight. Davis proposed an amendment to prohibit the President from conclud ing any tariff agreement of which the foreign labor costs and standards are lower than the comparable prod uct in thla country. "If we adopt this principle," he asserted, "the prise of our markets becomes an Inducement to elevate the standards of living abroad, bring ing them up to the level of our own." Vandcnberg termed the bill "reck less folly." He argued the legislation ran "ex actly in the opposite 'direction from the NRA and AAA which automatic ally Increase domestic production costs and threfore require higher rather than lower tariffs In order to auoceed."
