ARGENTINE'S MOVE AGAINST FLAX DUTY Requests Tariff Commission to Reject Investigation of- Costs Once Ignored Fargo, Oct. 22—A plea that the United States tariff commission re- jest the application made by Argen- tina for an investigation of the dif- ference in cost of production in flax- seed in the United States and Argen- tina, for the purpose of reducing the 65-cent tariff on flaxseed as fixed by the 1930 tariff bill, has been forwarded by the Greater North Dakota associ- ation, it was announced here today. The application for such an in- vestigation was filed by the National Association of Agriculture of Buenos Aires, and this is the first time a for- eign group has applied to the United States tariff commission for an ad- justment of tariff schedules. The Greater North Dakota association asks the commission not to grant the request for an investigation without @ preliminary public hearing or in- formal conference, at which the farm- ets of the United States producing flaxseed may be represented. Balked on Prior Investigation “In a preliminary way,” reads the Petition sent t6 the tariff commission by the state association, “our objec- tions are as follows: “1, An investigation was conducted into this matter very recently, with thoroughly unsatisfactory results. It extended over a period of years. The whole matter ran, in one form or an- other, from 1923 to 1929. At that time the Argentine government was un- willing for your representatives to se- cure costs of production in its country. A cost study published by the Argen- tine department of agriculture, and included in a report of your commis- sion, shows conclusively that costs of production warranted a full 50 per cent increase in duty. “2. In a vast field of industry, it may be that foreign invoices or for- eign wholesale selling prices are rep- resentative and acceptable as evi- ‘dences of costs of prosuction. But in the case of such commodities as wheat, flaxseed, cotton, etc., WI are listed on world-wide and the prices from day to day and year to year are based upon all the forces of world trade, the prices do not re- flect cost of production. The point is that in certain fields of study the for- eign invoice or wholesale selling price is merely the prices established on ‘exchanges’ or ‘future markets,’ and do not represent costs of production. Would Harm National Program “3. Congress, recognizing the futil- ity of using foreign invoice prices as a guide, and in view of Argentina's refusal to open their records, igniored | ¥°8? the last findings of the tariff com- mission of 56 cents per bushel and set 65 cents per bushel as a fair basis. This is on a basés of about 30 per cent ad valorem. We contend that this must stand until Argentina is willing to permit a full investigation in that country. “4. The United States government, through the federal farm board and the United States department of ag- riculture, has promoted this policy: to cut down the acreage of wheat to help solve a great national problem, and to expand the acreage of flax. Farmers of the United States in 1930, in response to this national program, decreased their wheat acreage to the extent of about 2,000,000 acres, and increased the flax acreage nearly 1,500,000 acres. To start. an investi- gation at this time would interfere with the whole national program in the trend away from wheat and toward flax in the hard spring wheat area where more than 90 per cent of the United States flaxseed is pro- duced.” Attorneys Clash in Lodge Insurance Case Nashville, Ill, Oct. 22—()—Feat- ured by frequent clashes between op- posing counsels, the two day Modern Woodmen of America injunction hearing in the Washington county cir- cuit court ended early last night, with the court refusing to pass judgment pending further study of the issues involved. Judge Silas Cook said owing to the importance of the case he desired time for consideration and study before passing judgment. Four protesting members charge fraud was perpe- trated at the 1929 head camp meeting in Chicago when an increase of rates on fraternal insurance was passed upon. They seek to enjoin the organ- ization from collecting the higher rates until the case goes to trial. Counsel for the society, sane the charges “malicious * lies,” said should the injunction be ar the society would lose licenses to write insurance in 15 states and in @ short time become insolvent.

Patients at a Prescott hospital yés- terday gave the first public inkling the actress was ill when they said a “Mrs. Gild” admitted to the institu- tion Monday was in reality Renee Adoree. Hospital officials refused to discuss the identity of the patient but from Hollywood came word from friends of the actress had left there “several days ago” for Prescott to re- receive treatment for a pulmonary ailment. DIVORCE ACTION Is “PILED BY ACTRESS Gtoria Swanson Charges Titled Husband With Desertion; He Is Agreeable Los Angeles, Oct. 22—(7)—Gloria Swanson's long-heralded suit for di- vorce from the Marquis Henri de la Falaise de la Coudraye was on file The screen star's attorney filed the suit yesterday, cl “willful and malicious desertion.” Confirming statements made at the time the ques- tion of divorce was broached, the mar- quis said he would not contest the action. The couple was married in Paris Megs 23, 1925, and separated a ago, the complaint stated. The first public intimation that Miss Swanson and her titled husband had reached the parting of their ways came in August this year, when the marquis came to Hollywood from Eu- rope and stayed alone at a hotel. At that time both said they had decided to live apart, and Miss Swanson inti- mated she was considering filing a|t suit for divorce. ‘The couple has no children, and Miss Swanson did not ask for alimony. There is no community property, the divorce petition said. Each principal professed .admira- tion for the other. “We will always be good friends,” the actress said. The marquis said he still had a “very high regard” for Miss Swanson. ‘The suit was the beginning of the end for Miss Smanson’s third matri- monial venture. In the early days of the movies she was married to Wal- lace Beery, screen villain. They were divorced in 1919, Beery charging de- sertion. Later Miss Swanson married Herbert Somborn, a wealthy resident of Pasadena, only to have him divorce her because “she placed her career above everything else.” The marquis, who has been seen often in the company of Constance aration, said this friendship had nothing to do with the divorce.

Leslie Burgin, member of parliament, said today’upon returning from the in- ternational law association conference in New York, that “there is no coun- try in the world quite so hard on the unfortunate and poor as the so-called Prosperous continent of America.” Dr. Burgin said he had traveled in 30 states, adding: “Throughout the whole of America there seems to be | is savors of Prussianism. “In America there seems to be a spirit of far greater callousness than exists in the old country.

W., Oct. 22—(P)— After an eight months’ absence, dur- jing which he flew nearly round the jworld and back again, Wing Com- mander’ Charles Kingsford-Smith to- day returned to his fiancee, Miss Mary Powell, whom he will marry late next month. The pretty girl, modishly clad in black and white, left her sick bed to greet him at Mascot airdrome as he jarrived from Sydney, escorted by 18 planes, completing a record breaking flight on which he brought Sydney to within less than 13 days of England. She waved as he circled the field once or twice and landed, but it was not until he taxied his little single- engined machine across the field to- ward the official dais that he saw her and waved kisses at her. When he stopped his plane and throttled its motor she ran out to meet him, and she took his hand as | —— he stepped from the cockpit. They embraced and talked smilingly and happily as they walked toward the cheering crowd of 6,000 or more. + She led him to his parents and the Official reception committee, and stood by him as they bade him wel- come and he spoke into a ready microphone. Afterward she rode with him in a triumphal procession through the streets of Sydney to the home of his parents at Lane Cove. “I am very happy,” she told news- Papermen tearfully. Thé famous aviator is victor over both Pacific and Atlantic, and holder of a newly-made record for flight be- tween England and the Australian continent. In a speech before the microphone Kingsford-Smith said: “I honestly believe that what I have done will be of some service to development of aviation as the greatest modern com- mercial transport. Time is money and with safety of flying under prop- erly organized conditions which are now established nothing can hold aviation back. Proper organization is no less than the man, and his ma- chine is a vital factor in success of long flights.” Preacher’s Wife Is Seeking Lost Spouse Omaha, Neb., Oct. 22.—(7)—Assert- ing she had been left with only two cents and a few personal belongings, Mrs. James W.

Hitchcock, 71, a senate leader in the Wilsonian | days, is seeking to return to the upp2r | house. He stepped from retirement to win the Democratic nomination, and ‘is contesting with a formidable op- ;Ponent in Senator George) W. Norris, | Republican insurgent. Hitchcock has | campaigned actively. The third senatorial candidate, Mrs, Beatrice Fenton Craig, of Lincoln, en- tered the race by petition. She is a dry and has announced that if elected | She will support the administration of President Hoover. In some quarters the campaign is viewed as a test of party regularity. In the primary Norris was bitterly opposed by standpat Republicans. The primary was enlivened by the threat- ened candidacy of a second George W. Norris. In his present campaign Senator Norris has not only defended the many stands he has taken in oppo- sition to the administration but he also has served notice that he would never accept the senatoriai assignment if he were restrained from what he termed “conscientious legislation.” He has summed up his position on party regular with the assertion, “I’d rather be right than regular.” Hitchcock, on the contrary, has em- phasized his allegiance to party ties and has declared political parties are jessential to a successful government.
