Tells Congressman Kitohin So in Let- ter About Tariff Commission, ‘Washington, Jan. 26. — President ‘Wilson today sent a letter to Chairman Kitchin of the house ways and means committee explaining why he had withdrawn his opposition to a tariff commission and now was urging the creation of such a body by congress. He"wrote frankly that he had changed his mind because “all the circum- stances of the world had changed.” Declaring that he had “no thought ‘whatever of a change in attitude tow- ard the so-called protection question,” the president said the proposed com- mission would have nothing to do with theories of policy, but would be charged only with the duty of Seek- ing facts to guide congress in legisla- tion. In another letter to Mr. Kitchin on Monday he had set forth fully his ideas of what a tariff commission should be and urged that the ways and means committee consider the matter immediately. He favored a wholly non- partisan, expert organization. RAPID WORK OF U. 8. SUPREME COURT.

BE- LIEVE PROSPECTS BRIGHT IS A REVISED MEASURE President Wilson Has Outlined New Proposal to Congressman Kitchin, Who Has Announced He Will Sup- port It. Wu'hln.wn. Jan. 26.—Prospeets for passage a government lhln pur- chase b‘m are belleved to be bright by administration leaders who saw in in conferences President Wilson had today with democrats who opposed such a measure last year, indications that united sup] for the proposal eventuzally would be won. Urging Members to Hasten. The president continued during the day to urge leading members of con- gress to sten action on important legislation. He discussed the ship bill, particularly with _Majority Leader Kitchin of the house and_ Senator Clarke of Arkansas. Later Represen- tative Kitchin sald the bill if present- ed as outlined to him would recelye his support. Senator Clarke would not discuss it, but some of his friends said they belleved the measure could be submitted in form to meet his ap- proval, Senator Simmons, chairman of the wenate finance committee and Repte- sentative Fitzgerald, chairman of the house appropriations committee, were among those who went to the White House for conferences. The president made - it clear that matters before congress which the administration hoped to see pushed ahead of every- thing else were the following: Matters to Be Pushed Ahead. National defense measures, includ- ing army reorganization and increased naval construction. Creation of a merchant marine de- signed to serve as a naval auxiliary in time of war. Revenue legislation, Including revi- sion of the income tax law and crea- tion of a non-partisan tariff board. ‘The Philippine self-government bill, which will include a provision grant- ing independence within two to four |old. years, provided satisfactory steps are taken in the meantime to establish a stable "independent government Conservation bills for development of water power and mineral’ g conferred for half an hour with the Arkansas senator in a corner of the hotel lobby. Inclined to Oppose Government Oper- ation. ‘The opposition senators have ex- pressed satisfaction over some features of the new bill, but are inclined still to oppose anything that might make government operation of ships prob- able. As now proposed, the bill would provide for government operation in case satisfactory leases to private cor- porations could not be made. The bill probably will be dl.mled of in the house before the pre ness measures are introduced thm. It is understood the president’s inten- tion is to have all the differing fac- tions of his party satisfled with a measure before it is made. Much time will be saved by thus thrashing out glflerencel before the bill reaches the loor.
