TARIFF PUBUEITY FIGHT T0 G0 ON JGarner t0 Speak Often of Conference Progress “to Keep Nation Informed.” By the Associated Press. In spite of Senator Smoot's declsion | to make immediate announcement of the rates agreed upon by the Senate- I In Benefit Concert ' House tariff conference, Representative | Garner, the Democratic leader, believes the battle for publicity is not com- g}ewly won, and he intends to carry it rther. He now intends to speak in the House every day or so and describe the cir- cumstances leading to the agreements Smoot announces. but that, he says, is & question of obtaining recognition from the presiding officer. “This story of publicity isn’t over,” he said today. “It is not always possible to get recognition on the floor of the House whenever it is wanted. If I can, however, every day or so I Intend to | speak for a few minutes after the morn- | ing session of the conference so the ! public can have a pleture of what is going on.” For Immediate Publicity. ‘The Democratic leader has long bean arguing that the rates agreed upon in conference should be made known at once. He said that Smoot's action, which reversed an arrangement ap- ved by the committee, means that for the first time in a century the de~ cisionis of a tariff conference are to be made public immediately. Smoot’s action came after yesterday's session, in which 32 disputed tariff rates were settled by the conference. As the 10 members, five from the House and five from the Senate, filed out, Garner said to the waiting press correspondents that he was ready to announce what had been done. “‘Come inside,” interposed Smoot, who appeared in the doorway. “I'll give you every rate lfl!'d upon. I want to make sure that all you fellows get this ac- curately. He then told in detail of the rates agreed upon. Chairman Hawley of the House ways and means committee, who introduced the tariff bill, said at the time he thought it had been decided to wait until a schedule had been completed before any announcement was made. “Yes, but Jack Garner says he's going to give out what we do every day. and I'm goin statemen Senator George, Democrat, Georgla, said last night that an analysis o( the votes of Democratic Senators on the tariff bill would show that their votes |}| for rate increases were cast in an ef- fort to give agricultural products equal . protection with industrial products. Demecratic Votes Explained. In a sunemem issued through the Democratic national committee, in re- ply to that of Senator Watson of In- diana, the Republican leader, which enumerated the Democrats who had voted for raises, Senator George said ||| that the wntson statement had been 1ssued to “prepare the pubuc for presi- dential approval of the bill.” “Care has been exercised not to di- Teet attention to the important fact that the extra session was called and & limited revision of the tariff recom- * mended by President Hoover -for the ||l Bllll'pose of equalizing agriculture with dustry,” he sald. ~ “The Democrats voted generally for increased rates for agricultural products.” “That Democratic Senators may have voted for certain increases in rates a; sgainst decreases in certain rates is a vanced as justification for the prac cally solid Old Guard Republican vote for higher duties on sugar, lumber, ce- ment and brick,” the Georgian sald.
