By a vote of 35 to 16 the Senate late yesterday approved the committee proposal for a rate of 33 cents a pound on scoured content of wool, after rejecting, 38 to 19, a proposal by Senator Wadsworth, republican, New | York, to cut the rate to 28 cents, and defeating, 43 to 22, Senator Lenroot's Yhm to limit to 60 per cent ad va- orem the rates on coarse wool. These votes brought the Senate to the duties on waste and manufactures of wool. The democr: under the leadership of Senator sh of Mas- sachugetts, planned to make a stren- uous fight againat the duties on yarn, cloth, clothing and other woolen goods, but the test votes today had led many senators to the conclusion that ubout the only changes that would be made in the rates as origi- nally reported would be those pro- posed by the finance committee ma- Jority. present indications were that con- sideration of the wool schedule would not be completed this week. After it is out of the way there will be re- newed efforts to get an agreement to limit debate and, possibly, for a final vote. Right now, however, leaders on neither the republican nor democratic side will predict when the bill will be passed and sent to con- ference. Apparently the hope of a vote by August 15, the day the House is to reassemble after its vacation, has been abandoned. Democrats Register Protests. With litle discussion other than the registering of a formal protest by democratic leaders, proved rates on wool waste. snoaa mungo, etc.. as originally reco mended by the committee, which i cluded 33 cents a pound on top, stubbing, roving and ring waste. The first reduction in the wool rates proposed by the committee was recommended when the paragraph dealing with wool advanced in any manner bevond the washed or scoured state. The compensatory rate of 36 cents a pound was unchanged, but the protective duty of 25 per cent ad valorem was cut by the committee to 20 per cent. Discussing the committee’s recom- mendation that this reduction be made, Senator Walsh of Massachu- setts, said the majority was putting itself in the position before the Sen- ate and the country of saying that it did not know itself what was a fair and just rate. He added that the dem- ocrats could do no better service to the country than to keep the bill be- fore the Senate for another year, as every time there was a Serious dis- cussion of the schedules changes in duties were proposed Approve Raw Wool Duty. The Senate yest:rday adopted by a vote of 36 to 18 the 33-cent-a-pound rate of duty on raw wool, proposed by the Senate finance committee, s 8 cents higher than allowed light.

Mitchell Pal- mer, former Attorney General and alien property custodiam, today before a Senate judiciary subcommittee. Mr. Palmer and another former alien property custodian, Francis P, Garvan, now head of the Chemical Foundation, and the present alien property custodian, Thomas W. Miller, appeared before the subcommittee to- dlll)l' at the opening of hearings on the bill. “The Underwood bill,” Mr. Palmer declared, “is entirely feasible and an ontirely proper method under the treaties and the trading with the enemy act of disposing of this enemy propery and of passing upon, ad- judicating and paying meritorious claims ®f American citizens and of the United States government.” Inquiry Is Limited. Chairman Cummins of the subcom- mittee announced, in opening the hearing. that they would be limited to the two propositions in the Under- wood bill, creation of a claims com- mission and disposition of seized enemy property. “We are not going into any in- vestigation of the former or present alien property custodians,” said Chairman Cummins, and Senagpr Un- derwood sald he was glad to6 have the inquiry so limited. Mr.- Palmer expressed the opinion that under the treaty of Versailles and what he termed “the =eparte treaty of peace with Germany.” all American rights were retained, in- cludirg the right to use geized prop- erty to pay American claims. The present administration course of negotiating a claims treaty with Germany. to set up a oint claims commission, was attacked by Mr. Pal- mer, discussing points made in Senate debate against the Underwood bill. Under the Versailles treaty, Mr. Pal- mer said. the German property seized in this country was, in effect. reauil sitioned, not by the American gov- ernment, but by the German govern- ment as a pledge for payment of American claims. The German government agreed, he explained, that German subjects whose property was used to pay Amerncan claims would have a claim against the German government and not against the American govern- THIS ment. This substitute, he declared, upset the contention that the Ameri- can government was ‘“conflscating” individual property of aliens. “So the way is clenr for the use property in paying Ameri- ** said the former Attorney General, adding thit ‘“‘mere guess- work” would result if the adminis- tration ocourse of -emnt‘ up a join? commiseion should be followed.
