CHANGES IN TARIFF | LAWTO BE SOUGHT Commission Members See | Chance for Improvement .» & In Flexible Provisions. By the Associated Press Recommendatlons for a revision of Rhe present tariff law as it affects the Tariff Commission probably will be made in the commission’s report to Congress early in December. Experience with the law has dem- ®nstrated to members of the commis- slon that improvement can be made, especially with respect to its flexible provisions. The principle of flexibil. ity, however, would not be disturbed One of the most important changes suggested is the adoption of a new method of determining adjustments in duty on fmported articles. At present this duty is based on the difference between the costs of production in this and foreign countril Thomas O. Marvin, chairman of the commission, in discussing the commis- ston’s experience with the law, favored the substitution of wholesale prices as the basis for making tariff adjust- i proper basis for the operation of a flexible tariff,” eaid the chairman, “is not the one element.of difference in cost of production, but the differ competitive conditions which «certainment of invoice mpetitive articles from s and wholesale prices ticles packed and ready prices for ¢ foreign coun of domestic for delivery. More Accuracy Seen. Under the present system, Mr. Mar- vin declared, there are many ways of computing costs of production, with each od resulting in a different figure. The wholesale price met he added, would be more acc and dependable, would save an ines timable amount of time and money &nd result in fairer treatment both to domestic and forelgn manufacturers. Since the Tariff Commission began to function undeér the present law there have been differences of opinion Among its members over methods to be used in individual cases in arriving of production figure. In s use of statistics for a pe- vears was advocated by zainst the use of fig ures for the cears favored by others. Use of one set of figures would result in an advantage to the American manufacturer, while use of the other set would not. It was in this manner only that what might be regarded as an issue of high and low tariff has been in- volved in the commission's proceed- ings. DENIS A.

Miss Slack's announcement of the affiliation with the W. C. T. U. of a group of nine Moslem women of Turkey brought loud applause. She emphasized that the temperance move- ment was growing rapidly in South America, where the governments Uruguay and Argentina were paying the salaries and traveling expenses of scientific temperance teachers for the schools. She predicted that Ulster would probably be the first district to go dry in the United Kingdom, and said prohibition in Egypt appeared to be making progress ‘“by - leaps and bounds.” Belgium, however, was the most difficult problem of all Europe for prohibition workers.

Kelly had been charged with frreg- ular practices before the United States Patent Office and had been disbarred there.
