WASHINGTON, July 7.—The Re- Publican move to enforce cloture on Administration Tariff Bill failed lay in the Senate. WASHINGTON, July 7 right).—President Harding wants the Powers of the Tariff Commission en- lJarged and he will insist upon a pro- vision to that effect in the pending Tariff Bil. Chairman McCumber of the Se Finance Committee has~just in Mounced on the floor of the ate phat many of the alterations ir tie Dill since its introduction have vesn eccasioned by changing conditions from day to dav. Mr. Harding is ‘mong those wh» believe that if con- Wditions change while the bill is andey consideration they also will chanve When it Is a Jaw, and that therefore fome permanent machinery for alter ion must be provided.

Heretofore, the power been jealously guarded because of # fear that the protectionist or tariff for revenue principles would be aban- doned according as the Tariff Com- mission was composed of those who leaned toward the Democratic or Re- Publican view of tariff making. Within the last few days the Re- publican National Committee has taken a fling at the movement for a “non-partisan tariff commission’ by insisting there could be no such thing, as one or the other of the fwo principles must prevail Mr, Harding is a protectionist. He quiets the fears of those who would hesitate to give the full power to a (Copy Tariff Commission by urging that the commission should merely recom- mend, and that the Chief Executive should lave the power to proclaim the tariff duties as conditions change This correspondent has been assured t Mr. Harding stands to-day on the mmendations he made in his De- cember address to Congress in which he said: ® L| “L hope a way will be found to Make for flexibility and elasticity, so that rates may be adjusted to meet unusual and charging conditions which cannot be accurately antici- Dated. These are problems incident to unfair practices and to-exchanges ich madness in money have made most unsolvable. I know of no a.anner in which to effect this flexi- bility other than to extend the pow- ers of the Tariff Commission so that it can adapt itself to a scientific and wholly just administration of the Jaw ‘I am not unmindful of the consti- tutional difficulties. ‘These can be met by giving authority to the Chief Ex- ecutive, who eould proclaim additional duties to meet conditions which the Congress may designate. The grant of authority to proclaim would, neces- sarily, bring the Tariff Commission into new and enlarged activities, be- cause no Executive could discharge auch a duty except upon the informa- tion acquired and recommendations made by this commission. But the plan 1s feabible and the proper functioning of the board would gtve us a better administration of & defined policy than ever can be made possible by iff duties prescribed without flexi- ity.""

Many of the Republicans who are to vote for the pending Tariff Bill will do so with a lukewarm feeling... They know the bill will cause dissatisfaction later bn. They would welcome, there- fore, some corrective machinery which would, in Itself, constitute an assur- ance against the bad working: of the pending measure.
