Before pass- ing judgment on the tariff bill as it emerges from Congress, he asked the American people to consider the benefits to accrue through a continuance of the protective policy. “If you wish an insight into the chaotic conditions in this country, in the throes of a commercial panic, with its consequent umemployment. distress and_depression, should the protective tartff policy of the Republican party be abandoned,” he said, “magnify a thousandfold the present temporary depression in some of our industries.” Analysis Is Detailed. Senator Smoot gave a detailed analysis of the changes made in the tariff bill by the Senate, claiming that ite some of the amendments in- serted by the Democratic-insurgent Republican coalition, it emerged “a Republican measure.” His speech in full was as follows: Consideration of the pending tariff bill was commenced by the Senate finance committee on Junc 13 last. Hearings were held before subcommit- tees which I appointed for the purpose evidence submitted by After considering all the facts pre- sented by the witnesses, together with the costs of production at home and abroad and the other essential factors pertinent to tariff legislation, the Sen- ate finance committee reported the bill 1o the Senate on September 4 with ap- ly 431 amendments to the Work Day and Night. Since that time the Senate has been working day and night debating the mom of the bill, and on Monday, 24, after making 1,253 amend- measure with a vote ‘While there are a good many changes the bill that n:vetbgn:n p:lt in by the urgent Republican coali- the vhnle":nke the voted st the bill ublicans and seven Demo- sapeaese isigéii fesif i 8 2 ‘The averages of the rates in the met- als, wood, rayon and sundries schedules, respectively, are lower as passed by the Senate than they are in the act of 1922, and the aves rate for each of the other 11 ules is higher than the average rate for the same respective schedules in the act of 1922, except the average rate for schedule 6, which is the same as in the present law. interesf facts are shown the average equivalent ad valorem based on 1928 imports, for the ferent schedules, are compared sched- phrase “ad va- and means " In tariff the to de- Bote the method of astessing duties on an l.m&grud article which is based upon value of that article.

The average ad valorem equivalent of the House rates for schedule 5— Sugar, molasses and manufactures thereof—was 92.36 per cent, which was bill, and was 67.85 per cent in the act of 1922. The relatively high ad valorem equivalent rate for sugar and molasses results from the very low price of sugar at the present time. on sugar is a specific rate. When the price of sugar is high the rate, when calculated on an ad valorem basis, is low; but when the price of sugar is low, as at present, the rate calculated on an ad valorem basis is relatively high. Sugar has never been cheaper than now. Tobacco Rates Same. ‘The Senate left the rates for sched- ule 6—tobacco and tobacco manufac- tures—exactly the same as in the act of 1922, 63.09 345“1' o:::. which is \':wer by 4 per cent n average rate as by the House for this schedule. 17, agricultural products and provisions, has the distinction of being the only schedule for which the average of all rates for the whole ule was increased by that passed by the House of Repre- sentatives. The Senate rates for sched- ule 7 average 35.99 per cent, the House rates average 33.35 per cent, under the act of 1922 the average was 2237 per cent. The increase in the average rate for the agricultural sched- ule is due principally to increased rates on such products as flaxseed, live cattle, canned , meats prepared or pre- scrved, cream, cheese, onions, flower bulbs, almonds, beans, peas, canned to- matoes, hay and other agricultural products. ‘The rates for schedule 8, spirits, wines and other beverages, were left by the Senate as passed by the House and mittee, at the schedule of 47.44 per cent. rates for spirits, wines an erages under the act of 1922 was 36.48 Pper_cent. The average Senate rates for each of the five textile schedules, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13, vary from .08 of 1 per cent to 4.20 per cent. lower than the average of those rates by the House for the same schedules, and in the case of manufactures of rayon the rates by the Senate are 3.5 per cent lower than the rates in the act of 1922. ‘The average ad valorem equivalent rate for schedule 9, manufactures of cotton, is 43.19 per cent as passed by the House the Senate. The lower Senate rate is due primarily to the cut in the duty on cotton warp-knit fabric gloves. Flax, Hemp and Jute. The average ad valorem equivalent rate for schedule 10, flax, hemp, jute and manufactures thereof, is 19.03 per the House and 18.95 passed by the Senate. The lower Senate rate is due principally to the reduction in the rate on cordage “Had despaired of ever get- ting better. Had a tired he‘in', lacking pep.

The lower average Senate rate, as compared with the House rate for this schedule, is largely due to reduction in the duties on wool felt hats and wool felt hat and hand-made Oriental, Ax- minster, Savonnerie and Aubusson car- pets, rugs and mats. ki For schedule 12, manufactures of silk, the average computed ad valorem rate is 60.17 per cent as passed by the House and 58.03 per cent as passed by the Senate. The decrease in the aver- age of the rates as passed by the Senate for this schedule is due in the main to ! the reduction in the rates on spun silk arn, plied; silk velvets and silk wear- apparel. The average computed ad valorem for schedule 13, manufactures of rayon, is 53.43 per cent as passed by the House and 49.14 per cent as Pnled by the Senate. The reduction in the average of the Senate rates for this schedule re- sults from lower rates on rayon yarn, rayon bands, rayon woven fabrics in the pilece, rayon pile fabrics, rayon tubings, garters, suspenders, cords, tassels, rayon knit fabric in the piece, rayon handker- chiefs and woven mufflers, rayon cloth- and wearing apparel and other rayon manufactures of filaments, fibers, provided for. Papers and Books Rate. ‘The average rate for schedule 14, papers and books, is 26.14 per cent as passed by the House, 25.91 per cent as passed by the Senate and in the act of 1922 is 24.51 per cent. The Senate rates on the average for this schedule are 8.58 per cent lower than the rates by the House, due largely to the striking out by the Senate of the discretionary countervailing provision respecting print- ing paper voting lower duties on photographic_paper, transparencies and ceramic decalcomanias. = B For_schedule 15, sundries, the #¥er- age of the House rates is 28.57 per cent, the Senate rates 19.99 per cent and the rates under the act 1922 20.99 per cent, or 1 per cent more than the Sen- ate rate. e lower Senate rate results in the main from the Senate voting to leave hides, leather, boots and s ds on the free list and to lower duties on such items as cut diamonds and other precious stones, imitation pearl beads, cork insulation, perforated cork pen holder me- chanical pencils and lead pencils, straw hats, novelty jewelry, leather gloves and a few other items.
