THURSDAY, 20,1929 CAPITAL; TARIFF ,AOTON ST WA Finance Committee Toils Over Figures Involved in Pend- ing Measure WILL RETURN AUGUST 19 Senate Reverts to Dispute With Hoover Over Export De- t benture Merits Hi | sti By FRANCIS M. STEPHENSON (Associated Press Staff Reo other vacation. For two months the committee will hear witnesses and work over the vol- uminous tariff measure passed by the house and then the senate will re- turn—on August 19—to begin consid- eration of this last recommendation of President Hoover remaining to be acted upon at the special session. Debate Is The recess was taken last night after a day of vigorous debate in the senate revolving principally about Prohibition and a few hours of dis- ee eeenaitis AEE istration proposal to postpone maturity date of the $400,000,000 French war supplies debt. The latter was approved by both chambers be- fore adjournment. ‘The senate prohibition debate hinged on the resolution of Senator Jones, Republican, Washington, pro- Posing appointment of a joint con- gressional committee, as requested by President Hoover to study the advis- ability of transferring the prohibition agencies to the department of justice. The long round of discussion fore- stalled action and the resolution went over as unfinished business. . The final hour of the segsion found the senate again reverting to its dis- pute with President Hoover over the export debenture farm relief plan. Senators Norris, Nebraska, and John- son, California, leaders of the Re- Eupported the debenture proposal, s- ure , aS~ sailed published stories which they said cast aspersions on the motives of Republicans opposing the presi- dent on that issue. ‘Tells of ‘Pressure’ In contrast to statements that some senators had voted against the presi- dent because of failure to get patron- age, Senator Norris declared he un- derstood considerable “pressure” had been brought to bear on Republicans to win their support for the Hoover viewpoint. The Nebraskan said one senator had told him he had been offered “the world with a fence around it” if cusation of improper activities by Mr. Hoover himself. Senator Johnson said the newspa- per accounts demonstrated the kind of “ ” sent out when mem- bers of the senate attempted to act independently. The pasticular story which aroused the discussion was one published by the United Press asso- ciation. Although both the house and sen- ate adopted the French debt resolu- tion yesterday, the house rushed away to its vacation before Speaker Long- worth could affix his signature. The opinion was expressed both at the capitol and at the treasury, however, that President Hoover would be war- ranted under the circumstances in allowing a postponement if France ratifies the agreement before August Ast. \ Personal and Social News of Mandan Vicinity Enters Auto Races Norski Larson, Prominent Northwest Auto Race Driver, Appears at Bismarck Pee Norski Larson, pictured ¢ THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE HETTINGER ISREADY FOR FESTIVAL WITH | - Who Can Solve This Death Puzzle? ‘AIR-MINDED’ CROWD} Two-Day Celebration Will Be Attended By Many Pilots, Feature Airplanes ee ee (Tribune Special Service) Hettinger, N.

Tuberculosis, Cancer Believed Connected Sydney, Australia.—(/P)—Increase in cancer directly proportionate to the decrease in tuberculosis is found for Great Britain for 1927 by Dr. T. Cherry of Melbourne. The same tendency was found by Dr. Cherry in a study of Great Brit- ain’s vital statistics for a period of 80 years ending in 1925. He finds that since 1871 cancer has been in- creasing and tuberculosis deaths dropping. For thee years Dr. Cherry has sup- plemented his statistical studies with Jaboratory work, and announces his conviction that there is a definite relation between the two diseases. He thinks the after effects of tubercu- losis give a person a predisposition to cancer. ‘The theory is that most cases of tuberculosis which have been cured may give rise to cancer if the body is attacked sufficiently a second time by the tubercular organisms.
