Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Underwood Tariff Bill: Speech of Hon. John Randolph Thornton of Louisiana in the Senate of the United States, Thursday, July 31, 1913 Mr. Thornton. Mr. President, I desire to preface the remarks that I am now about to make on the tariff bill by the statement that the preparation of those remarks was, so far as my part of it was concerned, completed last Monday before the session of the Senate of that day. I make this statement because those who heard or may have read the address of the Senator from Wyoming [Mr. Warren] on that Monday afternoon and who now hear or may hereafter read my own address may notice that there is a striking similarity of thought and expression in those two addresses on a certain question discussed by each of us. I wish to preface my remarks by the further statement that I request my brother Senators that I be not interrupted during the presentation of my argument for any cause whatever, as I should like to have my address appear in connected form. In making this statement I am asking no more of others than I have always done for others, for during my term of service here I have only twice interrupted Senators in debate, and then each time because I knew they would like to be interrupted by me, and in each case they have afterwards thanked me for it. In my opinion the liberty of interruption in debate in this body is very greatly abused. Mr. President, it is well known that I notified the Senate Democratic caucus that I could not vote for the Underwood tariff bill while it contained the free-sugar provision placed in it by the House and retained by the Senate Finance Committee and approved by the caucus and presented to the Senate as a Democratic Party measure.
