the tariff bill claimed, Senator Jones
(Democrat) of New IMexico said the
condition there resulting from a great
ly depreciated currency could not be
'taken care of 'by general tariff rates.
He added that many of .the duties pro
posed by the ofinance committee ma
jority would prove to be "an embargo
against 'England and -the other coun
tries."
"Congress .is following a will of
wisp with this tariff bill," he said:
"As -to razors, Senator 'McCumber
(Republican, of North Dakota, in
charge of the bill, said * the rates
should be high enough to shut out
certain grades coming from Germany
and used, he said, as premiums by
many American stores. I-H asserted
that these razors not only could not be
used for shaving, but would "not ev
en cut q corn."
Anide Iron the rates on razors, the
senante alrtoved, over minority pro
test, duties of 60 cents a hundred
sheets an gold leaf; 30 per cent, ad
valorem on nickel sliver sheets, strips,
rods and wire; 7-1-2 per cent ad valo
rem on bismuth; six cents a pound
on metallic arsenic and '15 cents a
pound on cadmium.
Just before the senate recessed af
ter a flve hour session, Senator Me
Cumber gave notice that a return to
night sessions would be necessary un
less the senate applied itself more
closely on the tariff.

COMMITTE REPORT
Southern Members of HoUse Want
iEarly Action Relative to. Muscle
Shoals.
Washington, Juon 11.-Influential
Southern members of the house, Rep
resent'atives.'Wright of Georgia, Oliver
of Alabama and Stoll of South Oaro
lina, ow-ill attempt this week to iper
suade the rules committee to give
places of preference to the several re
ports of the committee on military
&liairs concerning disposition of
'Muscle Shoals properties to Henry
(Ford.
It -is recognized that if action is
postponed unt'll after the elections
the situation woul'd not 'be favorable.
The house has nothing to do and
could easily act promptly if the rules
committee would assist. The Ameri
can farm 'bureau federation, ardently
supporting the Ford offer, has ad
dressed letters to its secretaries in
all states urging a drive 'against con
gress by letter and telegram. If pres
sure is sufliciently intense, the house
may act, it is pointed out. As to
whether or not completed action can
-be had is doubtful. The senate agri
cultural committee has not complet
ed its investigation. The indication
is that whatever 'action is taken by
the house will be referred to the
senate committee and that for the
house .bill, a committee bill will be
substituted. Ini all probabil'Ity Sena
tor Norris' scheme of government
operation will be sent to the senate as
a substitute. Friends of Ford in the
senate will, of course, 'fight the Nor
ris scheme and endeavor to put
through the Ford offer.
Th. -business of the senate is, con
gested to such extent that It seems
Impossible that any Muscle Shoals
action can be had before adjournment,
the tariff will be to the front until
August 1.
Honus legislation and ship subsidy
will then occupy all attention. In
the meantime a constitutional amend
ment in behalf of child labor 'will be
attempted and legislation seeking to
remedy the decision of the supreme
court in the Coronado case to the ef
fect that labor unions might :be sued.
The senate intends to adjourn uot
later than September.

POWER OF STATES
Borah Describes EfYorts by Congress.
Writes to Editor.
Washington, June 1.-The Ameri
can pecoile should -be given lhe oppor
tunity, by submission of a constitu
tionaji amendment,*'Senator Borah (Re
publcan) of Idaho, declared in a let
ter made public tonight, to decide
whether they desire to "wipe out state
limns" and give congress power to pas.
child labor, anti-lynching and simi
lar laws dealing with state affairs.
"Year after year congress is lash
ed into passing lawr which are mani
festly unconstitutional," said Senator
Borah In a letter on the anti-lyncling
bill, "aInd it has come to be a settled
principle app~arently' that congress
shlold disregard tihe constitution and
!'ave tile supremefl court alone to l)ro
teet it. To my *zinn; such a rule is
.co r'tterly shlameleSs, so0 uit.irly intol
erable that It is startling that it
shlould 'be even sJeasmlodically urged."
Decploring mob violen~ce, Scnator
lio:. ,in l'his letter' ic c' etter ci the
Boston Transcript said that tihe anti
lynchling bill, prov'iding federal pun
ishment for ofmlers of tile law wh~o
were accused of laxness Ic. lprevenfting

Ua' .ipreme court he111ld iwo chi;1 labor
lawvs vold.
"Ini other words, all thlese andl many
cther subjects and proniosit: i with
walen'I congress is 'irgd" ic dhal,' said
Senator florah, "are not within the
competency of congress as the con
stitution now stands. If the people
of this country have mlade 'up their
minds to deal Withl all these 'matters
through congress, then why not give
congress the ipower to do so rather
than urge a course whlich involves the
lowvest form of constitutional immor
ality
"I urge,, therefore, that there is
undlerlying these questions the grav
est constitutional pirOblem wh'ich we
as a deople could have presented. But
If tile change is to -be had it is better
Ito change it openly and candlidly and
intelligently than to longer pur'sue tihe
Vn~effeotivQ, iruitlsss, demoraliwing
method which we are now pursuing."
That lhe wvould oppose. suchl a conlsti
t-utional change 'wtas indicated by Sen
ator Borah, who argued that c6ngress
shlould not 'be placed in a p)osition
"'where it Is constantly and chronically
usurping powers" of the states.
