Wahington.Tbe House of Repre aentatlves by a vote of 221 to loo passed the Underwood wool tariff revision bill providing for a reduction of duty on wool and manufacture of wool. Twenty-four Republicana voted with the Democrat for the passage of the measure and one Democrat, Representative Francis of Ohio, voted against It. Many amendments were offered and voted down, the only one adopted be ltig a slight change In phraseology.

Immediately preceding the final vote, a motion offered by Representative I'ayne of New York that the bill be resubmitted to the ways and mean committee, with Instructions that It await a report from the tariff board on the woolen industry before making final report of the hill, was lost by a vol- of 189 to 118.

While some Democrats proposed amendments, with one exception they voted with the party when the bill came to passage.

Mr. Taft included In his message a statement from the tariff board as to the status of Its Inquiry and also a statement by a committee of the national tariff coin mis alon association which recently conducted an investigation of the methods of the tariff board. In tbl statement the board said that statistics compiled by it from the latest available foreign and domestic sources covering the production, distribution and consumption of raw wool and woolen raanufacturea had already been transmitted in request to the Ways and Means committee of the House and used by It.
