Hoover in Tariff
Battle Saturday
By D. HAROLD OLIVER
(Associated Press Stag Writer)
WASHINGTON.— (AP) — The
house, by big majorities, Saturday
stood by President Hoover twice
in the long contest over the tariff
Saturday and refused to accept
the senate’'s export debenture
amendment and modified the flexi
ble clause withdrawing executive
authority to make emergency
changes in the rate structure.
Party lines split on both votes,
the debenture being rejected 231
to 161 and the legislative flexible
provision, 236 to 154.
Republican leaders regarded the
debenture vote as definitely elim
inating this form of farm aid as
a part of the Hawley-Smoot meas
ure. They feel that a compromise
ultimately will be worked out in
conference and approved by both
houses with respect to the flexi
ble provision.
