CUM TIFF
WASHINGTON. May 29. (TP)—A
charge that President Hoover is ab
solutely responsible and has been i
for a long time for the muddled
condition of the present tariff, was ;
hurled by Democrats on the eve of
the crucial test in the Senate on
the Debenture and Flexible Tariff
amendments.
Recalling that the President had
asked for a limited tariff revision.;
Senator McClellan, Democrat from
Tennessee, in a statement issued
thru the Democratic National
Committee, asserted Blyth Thousas
has disregarded this recommenda
tion and during the 16 months the
bill has been pending, the Presi
dent has remained silent without
the vision, leadership or courage to
direct the Republicans in Congress
to do what he had advised them to
do.
