(Continued From First Page.) engaged in a joint debate with Senator Dickinson of Iowa, Republican, over the tariff. The Democrats are count- ing on making the tariff an issue in the next campaign. If they have charge of the House, they must make up their minds what to do‘about the tariff. In other words, they must ‘put the party on record and give the country some information as to what to expect in the way of tariff legislation if the Democrats take charge of the whole Government structure after the general election next year. With Democrats in House and Senate widely split over tar- iff policies, depending upon the sec- tions of the country from which they come, this is not going to be an easy 'DN:' general tariff legislation is likely the House, it is said by re nsible Democratic leaders, at the coming ses- sion. Undoubtedly, resolutions will be introduced attacking certain tariff schedules, and perhaps a measure seek- ing a horizontal reduction in rates from | the existing law. on all but the agri. cultural schedule, will be offered. | Whether such a measure could be passed and run the gauntlet of presi- dential approval is another question. What the country will observe, how- ever, is the attitude the Democrats of the House will assume toward the tariff when they are in the saddle. Another question the Democrats will have to tackle is farm relief. They have been scathing in their attacks on the Federal Farm Board and its op- erations, a board set up by s Repub- lican Congress and appointed by President Hoover. They must deter- mine whether they will back a bill abolishing the Farm Board, and what they will offer as a substitute if they go that far. Abolishing the Farm ard is not going to be such & popu- lar task, with many of the farmers in the country against such action. -Are the Democrats, placed in power in the House, going to advocate the debenture plan of farm relief or the McNary- Haugen equalization fee? This is a knotty problem for Mr. Garner and Senator Harrison and their colleagues. They are counting on carrying populous industrial States of the East next year. But such measures of farm relief had comparatively hearty supporters in the East. Senator Copeland of New York, when he voted for the debenture plan in the last Congress, for example, admitted he had to hold his nose to do so. Democratic support at that time for this measure was largely d signed to put President Hoover in hole, it was charged by the Republ ans, who insisted the Democrats would not support the measure if they | s thought it had a real chance to be- come a law. In coalition with the Re- publican insurgents from the West they put the debenture through the REPAIRING— COATS—Clean- New but- loops. all rips sewed.

Will Stress Relief Measures, There is an element in the Demo- cratic party which is anxious to soft- pedal on these economic questions dur- ing the coming seuion. !eelln( there is too much dynamite Relief measures lcr Lhe unemployed and for the banking institutions of the country, some of which have large quantities of “frozen” assets, will be stressed by the Democrats of the House in their legislative program. President Hoover will make a considerable num- ber of recommendations for relief legis- lation, many of which he has a'ready outlined to the country. Either the Democrats must accept some of these recommendations or develop other plans ‘| of their own. They may do a little of both. President Hoover's strong oppo- sition to the adoption of a Federal dole for the unemployed in the last session of Congress brought him much support. Will the Democratic majority of the House undertake to frame a bill for & Federal “dole”? Republican leaders are reflecting with |some satisfaction on the prcspect of Democratic control of the House, with these tough problems to be determined by the Democrats. They insist they do not believe the Democrats will gain in the estimation of the country, which- ever way they decide to go on these economic questions. If they do nothing, it will be taken for ['rlnl‘d they are not really strongly olwoud the ad- ministration program. the other hand, if they put forward thz debenture, for example, the dole and other meas- ures which have been ogfimed by the administration, the Republicans believe Democrats will lose ground. Ticklish Position Faces Garner. Representative Garner, as Speaker and Democratic leader of the House, is likely to occupy a ticklish position, the Republicans hold. Every move he and the House Democrats make will be watched and commented upon. ‘The Democrats must make up their minds, too, in their legislative program whether they will follow the lead of their erstwhile allies, the Republican Progressives, go forward with the Progressives’ idea of legislation, they are likely to come in for quite & drubbing from the Re- &bllc‘n Progressives, whose votes the 'mocrats would like to have in the next election. Two forces within the Democratic ranks themselves are likely to come to grips over this legislative program which Senator Harrison and Mr. Garner have promised, one of the conservative group and the other the Progressive group of Democrats. The Democrats have their Progressives to deal wil as well as the Republicans. Up to dal the Progressives on the Democratic sid have not been so cantankerous as the Republican insurgents. But once the Deraocrats are in control this Progres- sive element is likely to make itsell heard. Also the Democrats of the House in e | all probability will have urged upon them by wet Representatives from New York, Massachusetts and other States ‘wet program which will be seriously re- sisted by the dry Democrats of the South and the Weat Flyer lnjured on Skm-.
