C.—A fiexible tarifi plan, proposing authority for the pres ident to increase or decrease tarifi rates in the pending bill until July 1, 1924, was approved by the senate. The vote was 36 to 20, with three republi cans opposing and two democrats sup porting Just befure approving the plan the senate adopied, 34 to 19, an amend ment by Senator Bursum, New Mexico, which would provide that after July 1, 1924, no duties could be changed ex cept by authority of congress. The plan as finally approved is a sharp modification of that originally roposed. The president ts prohibited om using American valuation except in the case of dyes and certain coal tar products covered in two paragraphs of the bill, and is required to base changes in rates on the differences in costs of production” at home and | abroad instead of on differences in “conditions of competition.” Final vote on the tariff bill will be taken next Saturday, it was decided by adoption of the unanimous consent agreement offered by Senator McCum chairman of the senate finance committee.
