OTOR NEN ACREE TOATTEND HEARING Macauley Notifies Reed Four Magnates Will Testify on Tariff Schedules. By the Associated Press. Four automotive magnates or their of- ficlal representatives, are to appear Thursday before a Senate finance sub- committee to testify on the tariff sched- ules on automobiles. Alvin Macauley, president of the Na- tional Automobile Chamber of Com- | merce, today notified S-nator Reed, Re- | publican, of Pennsylvania, chairman of the subcommittee, that the four auto- mobile manufacturers requested to ap- pear, would be present or send official representatives. The men requested to appear are; Henry Ford, Alfred P. Sloan, jr., pres- | ident of General Motors; W. C. White, president of the White Motor Truck Co., and Mr. Macauley, who is also pres- ident of the Packard Motor Truck Co. Senator Reed asked the automobile | manufacturers to appear to give the subcommittee information with regard 1o the 25 per cent ad valorem duty on | automobiles in view of reports that “here was some desire in the industry | %o place automobiles on the free list. Dean Hill of New York, appearing for the Silk Association of America and | the Klots Throwing Mills, told the sub- | committee that the rayon industry must have added protection sooner or later “or lock the doors.” Urging supplemental duties on twisted | rayon yarns to equalize production costs in"this country and abroad, particularly in Japan, France and Italy, Hill asked a auty of 50 per cent be added to the 45 per cent rate on gray yarn if the yarn were twisted and had over four turns to the inch. He asked an addi- tional rate of 20 per cent on dyed yarns and yarns having four or less turns to | the inch. Foreign Labor Costs Cited. Royal Little of the Franklin Rayon | Corporation of Providence, R. I, speak- | ing for the Rayon Yarn Association, | recommended protection for the dyers and converters of yarns through a dif. ferential similar to that now accorded cotton and wool converted yarns. Labor costs in Italy and France for converting, Little said, were about one- sixth of domestic costs. More than fifty witnesses were called to testify on rayon and metal rates at the resumption of hearings. The administrative provisions of the House tariff bill, increasing the Chief Exccutive’s power to change import duties, stood out today as rivaling even the sugar schedule as a potential source of prolonged centroversy in the Senate. An organized Democratic effort to eliminate the flexible provision from this section of the measure was seen in the issuance by the Democratic national committee of a statement by Senator Simmons of North Carolina, ranking minority member of the finance com- mittee, announcing a “fight to the bit- ter end” against the proposal. Repeal of Clause Is Sought. The statement described the flexible clause, first enacted in 1922, as a “prop. osition on the part of Congress to sur- render this essentially legislative func- tion to the executive branch of the Government,” and said it “involves a principle fundamental in our repre- sentative system of Government: name- 1y, the right of the people to control the purse strings through their representa- tives.” Repeal of the clause through elimina- tion of the flexible provision in the House bill was sought by Representative Garner of Texas, ranking Democrat, of the ways and means committee, shortly before the measure was passed by that chamber. Lack of unanimity in favor of it among Republicans was demon- strated during the preceding debate with a vigorous argument against it by Representative Beck, Republican, of Pfl‘;nsylvzma. a former solicitor gen- eral. The extent to which the Democrats will gain support from Republican in- dependents for their campaign against | the clause in the Senate has not been indicated. It has been made clear, how- ever, that the two groups, which sug- ceeded twice in overriding Presiden Hoover’s opposition to the export de- benture plan of farm relief, will stand r-ore or less closely together again in | the tariff debate, at least in so far as | the effort to confine revision to agri- cultural and related products is con- cerned, \ Movement Gains New Support. That movement, already organized | among Republican independents, was | given fresh support in the Simmons | tatement, which assailed the House bill | “the most signal victory ever won the seekers after privilege and Gov- ernment favors” and declared that un- less the finance committee changed it | radically the Democrats would attempt to_limit it to agricultural rate re SPECIAL NOTICES.

SHARPSHOO Two-Man Team Laurels Are Captured by Local Pair in E'aster_'n Tourney. Raiph McGarrity and Earle Stimson Win From Field of 40. Special Dispatch to The Star. SEAGIRT, N. J., July 8—Two mem- bers of the Nationa} Capital Rifle Club, Ralph McGairity, 1332 Quincy street, and Earle Stimson, Barr Build- ing, won the Eastern two-man team match over a flield of 40 entries by a very close decision, according to an of- ficial bulletin,\published by the Eastern small-bore tournament yesterday. Three teams each scored 773 points out of a possible 800 over the 100 and 200 yard ranges, and since two of them made the same total at each range it was necessary to determine which team had the greatest number of hits of lowest value. Paul Landrock, Roose- velt Rifle Club, and J. A. Wilners, Frankfort Arsenal, were unfortunate enough to have a “seven” in the 200- yard string and were awarded second place. C. S. Neary and F. O. Kuhn of the Remington Rifle and Gun Club, Bridge- port, Conn., had 1 point more in the 100-yard range, but 1 point less in the longer range than the other two, and therefore were given third place. Sixth prize. money went to the District of Columbia National Guard representa-| tives, Capt. Just Jensen of the Ord-| nance Department and Capt. Clarence | F. Shields, Company E, 121st Engineers, who together totaled 767 points out of a possible 800. Of the 17 prizes in the individual grand aggregate, which com- made in the Paim:.

POLICE REPORT JUMP IN ARRESTS Increase of 18,905 for Fiscal Year Is Revealed in Analysis. Although a slight decrease in the number of felonies was noted, a decided advance in the number of misdemeanors and minor traffic offenses scrved to swell the total of arrests made by Washington police for the fiscal year ended June 30 to 122,028, according to the report of Maj. Henry G. Pratt, superintendent of police. The analysis was prepared by Lieut. L. I. H. Edwards, department per- sonnel officer. {Despite the decrease in the sumber: of felonies as a whole, the arrests for murder were nearly twice as numerous as in the preceding year. The report shows 54 such arrests in 1929 and only 23 1h 1928. Durihg 1929 there were fewer arrests under the Volstead act than in any of | the four preceding years, with the ex- | ception of 1927. The total for the fiscal year just ended was 5247. 1929 Total Much Greater. ‘The 1929 total, according to the re- the four years immediately preceding, the largest increase being that between the 1928 and 1920 fiscal years. In 1928 the arrests numbered 103,113; in 1927, 91,501; in 1926, 93,024, and in 1925, 75,329, the reference in each case being to fiscal years. As in the case of criminal offenses as | a whole, arrests for seridus traffic vio- | latigns showed little or no increase. In some of the serious classes of traffic of- fenses there were even-fewer arzests. Driving while drunk, for which one | of the heaviest jpenalties in, the traffic | code is exacted, has decreased rearly 50 | per cent in the three years during | which separate figures for this offense have been kept. Speeding has also re- | sulted in a decrcase in the nember of | arrests. But “miscellancous offenses,” | including all parking charges and other minor violations, show up in substan- tial increases. Figures Given, ‘The figures follow: Felonies—Arrests in 1929 numbered 4,061, a decrease over the two preceding years. The figures from 1925 to 1928, | inclusive, are 3.426, 3,988, 4.245 and 4516. This decrease was maintained in spite of a large increase in the num- | ber of arrests under the Iottery law. There were no arrests under this lawy| in the first three years of the survey, 9 in 1928 and 251 in 1929. There was also a substantial increase in ar- | rests for murder, 54 being made in 1929, 28 in 1928, 37 in 1927, 40 in 1926 and 39 in 1925. Arrests for .miscel- laneods felonies dropped from 1,383 in 1928 to 981 in 1929. There were 1327 arrests under this heading in 1927, and | figures were not kept séparately during the other two years. | The figures for some of the major | felonies are: i 1926.1927. 1928.1929 Assault with danger- ous weapon...

The traffic arrests over the period were 33,- | 107, 43834, 36,091, 58887 the figure for 1929 being the highest in the city's history.

Reckless driving arrests in the three years were 1,782, 2,327 and 2,151 Miscellaneous traffic offenses were represented by steadily climbing arrests in all years except 1927. The figures are 23,253, 37,306, 28,263, 32,298 and 48,318, The increase in population during the years of the survey is estimated by the Health .
