WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.—The pro- Posal of certain Republican mombers of Congress to re-enact the Payne- Aldrich Tariff!

As @ result, the tariff situation is con- 2 Siderably muddled and there is sharp @ivizion among Republican members i} in Doth branches as to the most ex- Pedient course to follow. Representative James A. Frear, of ‘Wisconsin, a member of the Ways 4) and Means Committees, brought back from Florida the message that the , incoming President was opposed to the re-enactment of tho Payne-Ald- rich law, owing to the odium attached to that measure in the popular mind.

Some of the representatives of mills say that they will be forced to shut down if the bill is onacted as jt stands, While the opposition did not muster eniough strength to defeat the rule, it was demonstrated that there are not enough votes to pass the measure Rover the President's veto.

As few of the committees which draw the money bills have legislative powers, some of the most important committees of the House have sud- denly found themselves without power and without anything to do. When the Steering Committee finst proposed the centralization of appropriating power in a select committee mem- bers failed to understand the scope of the plan. A majority voted for a resolution the House Appropriation Committee to thirty-five, thinking that the super-committee would only hmve supervisory powers over ap- partmental estimates on to the vari- ous committees. As the new arrange- ment has been put into operation, members from the Select Committee are detalled to handle each of the big appropriation bills, including the drawing of the meausres and man- aging them on the floor ‘The disgruntled members have shown thelr dissatisfaction with the new order of things in many instances by obstructing legislation and knock Ing out various items by points of order. Incoming members are being lined up to overturn the super-committee plan in the new Congress. If Speaker Gillett, Floor Leader Mondell and other Republican leaders persist in their support of the centralization scheme, they are likely to be de- throned.
