The fact of the matter is, it was said today, there is great pressure being brought to revise the tariff up- ward without delay. _ hand, members of Congress realize the very popular demand that the taxes be revised immediately so ax; to lessen the burden upon the people. The revision of the tariff upward is not going 1o reduce the cost of living | in this country: in fact. it is likely to | keep prices up, or even to give an excuse for increasing prices of com- modities, it is said. On the other hand, revision of the revenue laws, lightening the tax bur- | den. might well help to make the cost | of living somewhat lighter. i Between Two Fires. i So the members of Congress are be tween two fires. Some of their con stituents, including the farme re | demanding immediate action raising | the tariff rates. On the other hand. | their political instinct tells them that it would be wise to reduce the taxes. But they do not like to offend their constituents. They are engaged in the meantime in the gentle art of “passing the buck” to the Preaident. Suggestion was made today that the tariff and revenue revision be combined in one bill. In this way, it was said, it would be possible to avoid {making ‘enemies by taking up one {first and allowing the other to go over. It was intimated that this course might be adopted eventually.

A copy of a letter to Jan Oudegees secret: of the International Fa'der = tion of de Unions, signed by Pre: dent Samuel Gompers of the Ame: can Federation of Labor. was made public Tuesday, _definitely breaking all relations with the international labor body. on the groumd that the Iatter failed to protect the “complete autonemy” of its members, otl Teasons cited in the letter w through the instance of | appeals and proclamations, the ex-| ecutive body of the internatlonal fed. | eration has committed the federation to a revolutionary principle to which the American Federation of Labor fs and always has been uncompromis.
