Hearings granted to domestic Inter ests ,ln connection with the foreign trade agreements with foreign coun tries, negotiated by the state depart ment, have turned out to be just what was expected by the discerning When the bill, giving the President 0' power to negotiate agreements In volving changes In tariff rates, was llrst drafted and Introduced, It con tained no provision to give those In dustries affected by the agreements a chance to be heard. The Repub licans raised a big outcry over this and Insisted they would not permit the bill to pass, would filibuster against it it necessary, unless the bill was amended so as to include hear ings. Democratic leadership barkened to th plea, or threat, and obligingly adopted the feature demanded by the Republicans. But It was. neverthe less, generally believed by those fa miliar with such things thst the hear ings would not amount to anything and that they were Just a sop thrown to the high-tariff people. The first hearings under the new act are now being held by the tariff commission on the Cuban commercial treaty, and the proceedings seem to Justify the predictions as to their Talue. What the Cuban treaty con tains has never been disclosed to con- grass or the public, and neither Thomas W. Page, vice-chairman of the commission presiding at the hear ings, nor any other government of ficer will tell witnesses what Its pro visions are. Tills F'Jta prospective wit nesses wholly in the dark because they do not know whether their busi ness Is affected or not. A Connecticut tobacco grower came before the commission and wanted to find out If his product was affected by the terms of the agreement, but Mr. Page told him he could not gle him the Information. Thereupon tne Connecticut Yankee thought he had better be on the safe side and pro test anyhow. Oother witnesses have followed his lead and have testiriea as if their products were not only going to be affected, but affected adversely. Witnesses must tell their own stories because they are not per-1 mttted to have attorneys argue their eases for them. The hearings arc nominally public, but that does not mean you can walk right In without any formalities. No one Is allowed to enter unless he till In a slip o.' paper, giving his name, whom and what he represents, and the reason aft he wishes to testify or be present. Those who imagined these would be a repetition of the old congressional tariff hearings, where witnesses ap peared with a battery of legal coun sel, filed Immense briefs, had rolls of charts, exhibited their wares ana made stump speeches to the commit tees, find the new methods strange and disappointing. n.nlt art Inurnment, ft consider ah' nfimhjir ftt member of Congress could still be occupying themselves with public affairs in ways .ironuj msrked out lor mem. i-weive Investigation authorised by the 73rd congress were continued Into the 74th 11 hmiMt investigations are still sllve. with the usual membership of five on each committee, these 23 in vestigations, If all were active, woum require the attention of lis legisla tors.
