Send It to Senate REVISES RATES UPWARDS e Every Man, Woman and Child in Nation Affected by Changes Proposed ‘Washington, May 28—(?)—rne house, today, passed the tariff Dill and sent to the scnate. Washington,’ May 28.—() —Sub-| ‘stantial increases in import duties on | thousands of commodities of the farm and factory are provided for in the new tariff bill which before nightfall is expected to be passed by the house and sent to the senate. The measure, the first tariff legis- lation in seven- years, also recom mends sweeping changes in adminis: trative ‘provisions of the law and a reorganization of the tariff commis- sion under a system designed to speed up its work. The bill revises, mostly upward, rates in every dutiable section cf the existing Fordney-McCumber law, which it is designed to supplant. Every man, woman and child in the country and nearly every foreign na- tion in the world is affected by’ the economic changes proposed by the measure in the seven-year-old Re- publican protective tariff structure. Perhaps the most far-reaching change is the advance cf sixty-four hundredths of a cent in the effective duty on sugar, raising the present duty of 1.76 cents a pound on Cuban raw sugar to 2.40.cents. . Designed to Aid Farmers Other rates advanced, designed to aid the farmer and manufacturer, a! fect such commodities as wool, cattle, dairy products, meats, grains, textiles, glass, paper, furniture, and clothing of all ions. Rpwortant -oremplalies long lowed free entry into the United Gtates are made dutiable, including hides, leather, a shoes, ce- ment, common building briek, shin- gles, cedar, maple and birch lumber. ‘The measure also sets up an en- tirely nev rate schedule to embrace manufactures of artificial silk under the official name of “rayon.” These goods are protected in existing law under the silk schedule. ‘Wool Raise Important From a public standpoint the in- creases in the sugar rate and the of the duty on raw wool PATTERSON IS FIRST THE BISMARCK TRIBUN veer BISMARCK, NORTH DAKOTA, TUESDAY, MAY 28, 1929 [[eesmes Gare, Lnaberen FUNDAMENTALIST 10 (MOVE 1 SUPPRESS “The bride was dressed in white chi! today.

C. Barr, New Orleans, filed notice of a protest with the modera- tor, Dr. Cleland B. McAfee, Chicago, after action in the seminary case at the 141st general assembly. He said he was not prepared to announce the grounds of his protest nor to whom he will appeal. Dr. Barr long known as a defender of fundamentalism in the church, said he believed a mistake was made by the assembly to set up a single board of control replacing the dual control now vested in boards of trus- tees and directors. Fears ‘Liberalism’ He was a member of the minority whose representatives opposed the change on grounds that changed management opens the way to the teaching of “that which is not in con- formity with traditional Presby- terian doctrii Fe were e@x- Pressed that “liberalism” and “new modernistic thought” might make their way into the theological posi- tion of the seminary. Meanwhile today special considera- 11 members of the present board of directors, 11 members of the board of trustees-and 11 others. In the pes ‘the-board of directors ef 33 thas governed the faculty and aca- demic program of the seminary while the 18 trustees directed the financial Program with corporate powers under & New Jersey state charter. This board will be elected by the assembly, which under the organiza- tion plan, further centralized control by increasing authority to the pres- ident, Dr. J. Ross Stevenson, who has been under fire from a group of fac- ulty members. These charged him with embarking on a program of lib- eralism and sought adoption of a course of action which would curtail his powers and make him the admin- istrative member of the two boards and faculty. Reactionaries Ignored Opponents of the plan for the sem- inary reorganized were ignored in the list of nominations for the new board of trustees of the seminary presented today. Dr. Clarence E. McCartney, Pit » Was the only decided op- Ponent of reorganization nominated. In nominating members of the new board, which will replace two boards, ® board of trustees and 33 directors, the committee nominated 11 members of each of the old boards and 11 members from the church at large. Opponents of the plan of reorgan- ization who were dropped were Sam- uel Craig, editor of the Presbyterian, ultra-conservative orgen published at it of Wilson » la bersburg, Pa., both omy of the Hy 4 é STATE TROLLEY CAR IS TAKEN UP AGAIN City Commission Asked for Pe- tition Forms to Be Signed by Fourth Street RIGHT LAPSED, SAYS YOUNG City Attorney Repeats Opinion That Line Has No Fran- chise and Trespasses Mickey O'Connor sees the hand- writing on the wall. Like Belshazzar of Babylon, who saw destruction of his kingdom on the frescoes of his palace, so Mickey sees the days of his four-wheeled strect car domain are numbered in a move to rid Bismarck of its one trolley vehicle. L. A. Tavis, who has built a fine residence at 516 Fourth street, is leading the demand for the suppres- sion of the relic of rapid transit of 1895. So bent is he on relegating the emblem of Toonerville to the scrap heap that not even the florid coat of blue dye tl was applied recently by Mickey O'Connor, its custodian, is swerving him in the least from his plan. Like General Grant, he pro- Poses to move on Mickey's works at once. The Tavis strategy is to sign up the town against The Car. He applied to the city -ommission Monday eve- ning for formal retitions to circulate. Just in what form to couch these was not clear to the commission. The city in general can sign for the sup- pression of The Car, but when it comes to paving, that may be some- thing for Fourth street exclusively. The residents of the street can peti- tion for the creation of an improve- ment district. It is likely that two petitions will be put out, one for each proposal. Easy to Suppress Says Young Talk in the commission developed doubt as to the procedure to be ap- plied for the removal of the tracks and the discontinuance of The Car. Some members thought the matter required action front the ird_ of administration. Others felt that The Car being a creation of the legisla- ture, it would require a legislative enactment to end its long and serv- iceable career. Still others contended that it all depended on Mickey O'Con- nor. If there was to be an end made of The Car, Mickey's consent would have to be obtained, they said. ‘The situation is easier, however, in the opinion of C. L. Young, city at- torney. When ‘his attention was called to the matter, today, he re- called a legal opinion he gave June 22, 1925, when the existence of The Car wavered in the balance as it will again shortly. According to the city attorney, The Car no longer is operated on any franchise rights. Those expired in 1923. Since then The Car has been tolerated and any time the city so desires it can proceed against it as a Created by 1903 Ordinance The city attorney's opinion of 1925 holds, in part: Under the statutes of the state in force at the times hereinafter men- (Continued on page eleven) MOTT, HEBRON CROP OUTLOOK EXCELLENT Hettinger County Flax Acreage to Be Largest in History; Corn Backward Predictions of a good 1929 grain uarter lowing heavy general rains in that section last week-end.
