2 * [.0.P. PLANSCUR (N TARIFF-DEBATE ciult‘ure Petition, Signed by Fifty-Five, Goes to Sen- 2 ate Wednesday. Fhis week fs to develop some deft- ni@ plan as to the fate of the pend- ing tariff bill in the Senate, accord- ing, to a decislon today by republican leagers In Informal conferences. It wa¥ announced that the republican on to curb debate on the bill, which has been in circulation ‘about ten, days, would be presented in the Scgate next Wednesday and voted on the following Friday. The clotute petition. which requires sixteen senaztorial _signatures for presentation, and which was sald to | bear fifty-five of the sixty republi names, Senator Curtis of Kansas, republi- <an whip, who clrcilated it. to Chair- man McCumber of the finance com- mittee, manager of the tariff forces. Senator McCumber conferred with vther republicans and decided to pre- sent the motion Wednesday. The mo- tion must lie over a day under the and the leaders sald they felt of a vote Friday. ’S?mt the necesary tweo-thirds vote for®-cloture could not be secured was propable, according to the sponsors of ihe, petition. Several democrats were said to favor cloture, but the party as a whole was expected to line up gen- erally against it. Defeat of the cloture move, republi- camleaders said, would at least demon- sgre a desire on the part of the ma- jorfty to bring the bill to an early vote. Thiy said that afterward if substantial prdgress was not made on the bill they wefe prepared to lay it aside and make a figorous fight for the proposed new clofure rule, recommended recently by {wé republican conferences to invoke cloture by majority instead of a two- thitds vote.

Reports received here indi. cate that approximately 25,000 main tenance of way men already have gone out. & If these reports are correct, Grable declared, their action was dus to two reasons: First, because of a misun- derstanding, and, secondly, becaus! they are in sympathy with the shop- craft workers.

Shouid the canvass of the vote today show the majority considered necessary by President Grable, the messages will be dis. patched immediately calling out every member of the organization except those necessary for public safety.

Even President Harding, judicial and fair-minded man that he is, has besn unable to settle the controversy. _LiStening to the ex- ploits related by his father, he is con- vinced that it was he, single-handed, who turned back the tide of the Con- federacy.

"MUD VOLCANOES as They Are Hills Rather Than Mountains. Recent efuption of mud volcanoes in the edge of Mexico near the southern { California line, as reported from El Centro, Calif., has introduced these “iittle brothers of Vesuvius" to some persons for the first time, and WAy have left the impression that this portion of the country Is subject to major volcanic outbreake. A bulle- tin _issued from . Washington headquarters of the National Geo graphic Soclety explains Just ‘what mnl‘ volcanots are and tells some- thing of their wide distribution around the world. *“The term ‘volcano’ is in a wal misnomer for these little mounde of boiling mud—a fact that is recognized sometimes by calling them strs, s the bulletin. . therk, in the matter of size, beéar to ttue volcanoes the relation of the proverblal molehill to the mountain. And while ‘volcano. with the pic ture that it brings up of demolished and buried cities, naturally inspires something of awe, ‘mud volcAnoes,’ when they are not mildly interesting natural phenomena, are little more than nuisances. Like geysers, mud volcAnoes are usually féund in regions that have DOTENTREGLOBE iGeysers Held Better Name, been subject to true volcanie action 5 within recént geologic times. But this is not aiways true: and ‘recent’ in this sense may mean many thousands of years. In the case of geysers, water in figsures, a portion of Whot walls are hot, steam forms after a time and the column of water is #x- pelled. In the case of mud volcanoes, 2 much smaller quantity of water is involved. It is uuunllg turaed com- pletely into ateam, which forces iis way through fine material and forms hot mud. 5 “In typical mud volcanoes the soft mud 1is forced out with little violenge through the top of a small mound and &"v! down over the sides. Oc- casionally, however, & heavy column of mud traps the Steam for a con- siderable period, which is ended by a geyser-like eruption that may throw the soft material and chunks of the hardened cone high in the air. ‘Mud volcanoes are much more com= mon than geysers. The only plhces in which geysers exist in appréeciable numbers are the Yellowstone Natfonal Park—the largest and most. impor- tant geyser region la the world— lcalmfi, the Malay archipelago and the North and of New land.
