TfiRIFFWILL FAIL Senator Scores ‘Coercive’ Meth ods by Wilson and Secret Cau cus in Attack on Biil. WASHINGTON, July 20.—Progres sive Republican opposition to the Un- derwood-Simmona tariff bill was ex pressed to-day in the Senate by Sen ator Cummins, of Iowa, who con demned many of its provisions. The Senator announced himself in favor of the income tax amendment, substantially as written by the Deni- j ocrats. “if it could not be changed to ! better suit the exigencies of the situa- | tion.” Senator Cummins criticised Presi - I dent Wilson for bringing to bear the | “coerce” executive influence upon the j framers of the measure, and he also i was sharp in his eritcisms of “legis lation by secret caucus.” “The tariff will increase imports- I tion and diminish home production | of a great many things, and will force into idleness many workingmen,” Cummins asserted. “It puts the prod ucts of agriculture, in the main, tin the free list. It probably is true some of these commodities need no protec tive duty, but many of them do. and to treat the farmer as an outlaw is manifestly wrong. “Second, the bill proceeds on the theory that the manufacturer of the finished product is entitled to raw material free of duty. This is all very well if the raw material can be pro duced in this country as cheaply as abroad, but if that costs more here to produce it, then the raw material of the manufacturer should be dutiable. “Its duties are, upon many com modities, destructively inadequate, and the lesser industries of the coun try will suffer.” Augusta Shocked by Girl in Filmy Garb; Arrest Stops Riot AUGUSTA, GA..
