The worsteds have been chosen dis- criminatingly; the silk for the linings —body and sleeves—of tested quality; the modeling as dictated by the most exclusive-minded authorities. And then master craftsmen have done the rest—surpassingly well. Browns, grays and blues—of single tones and refined patternings—befit- ting any occasion, and fitting any physique.

C, TUESDAY, REED GETS REBUKE ONLABOR GESTURE Ashurst Takes Pennsylvania Senator to Task on Pro- posed Amendment. By the Associated Press, Advocacy by Senator Reed, Repub- lican of Pennsylvania, of a proposal to give organized labor the right to in- tervene in customs litigation was termed today by Senator Ashurst, Democrat of Arizona, as an insult to labor. Denying the charge, Reed said labor had made a strong appeal for the pro- posal as an amendment to the tariff bill and that the Department of Jus- tice, while efficient in handling cus- toms cases, was losing many cases for the Government because facts were not available from all interested .parties. Ashurst asserted he had witnessed many a strange spectacle in the Senate, but the sight of “the Senator from Pennsylvania weeping crocodile tears for labor is the strangest spectacle I have ever seen.” Replies in Kind. Reed replied that organized labor had advocated the amendment strongly in the pending tariff bill and said if the Arizona Senator would consult rep- resentatives of labor organizations in- stead of “denouncing me for an imag- inary subservience to the steel trust,” he would come to different conclusions. “I will never consult the Senator from Pensylvania if I want to know thekleellngs of labor,” Ashurst shouted bacl During - Ashurst’s attack on the Pennsylvania Senator, he was warned by Senator Moses of New Hampshire, who was presiding, that he was near infringement of the rules. The Senate rejected the Norris labor amendment, as well as similar pro- posed amendments, giving the same rights to agricultural and consumers’ organizations. The vote was 44 to 41. Coalition Sees Hope. ‘The hopes of leaders of the Demo- cratic and Independent Republican groups to dictate the entire tariff bill, had fresh support as debate approached on the crucial rate schedule. Continuance of the coalition's power —three times victorious in contests with the administration—was seen by its leaders in the defeat of the Republican | good amendment to permit customs ap- praisers in certain instances to resort to an estimated value in levying ad valorem rates. Regular Republican leaders insisted, however, that the vote on this issue, 44-37, did not sustain the claims that the coalition would hold intact through consideration of the numerous changes proposed in the imposts, which is ex- pected to start tomorrow or Thursday. Proposal for Labor. Confronting the last of the amend- ments proposed to the administrative clauses of the bill, the Senate today turned to the Republican proposal to give laber as well as manufacturers and importers representation in litigation. A move to prevent nullification of the coalition’s victory over the admin- istration in taking the flexible tariff powers away from the President, mean- while, been initiated by Senator McKellar, Demccrat, Tennessee. His pro] 1 is that the Senate itself, instead of the Vice President, designate | the chamber’s committee, when the time comes, to confer on differences in the measure ‘with Representatives of the House, which voted to continue the fiex- ible tarift policy-favored by the Presi-, customs dent.

BYRD CAMP STIRS INTO ACTION (CAR DRIVER FACES AS WARMER WEATHER NEARS Dog Teams Are Expected to Take Trail to South Within a Few Days—Planes Are Made Ready to Fly. BY RUSSELL OWEN. By Radlo to The Star and the New York Times. LITTLE AMERICA, Antarctica, Octo- ber 8.—As soon as a break in the weather comes and a few warm days can ber:xp'zctedsnth:hd un;;,of the n;n party to go South, supporting par will leave the base and start a dmth journey over the upheaved bay ice, which at some places has been forced nearly 50 feet up to the barrier surface, where their way will lie through two badly crevassed areas. Sleds Are Being Packed. They are all ready to go, but it has been unusually cold this Spring and the start will not be made until the weather moderates enough so that the dogs will not become exhausted. Sleds are being packed and everything is be- ing brought together so that there will be as little delay as possible when Comdr.- Byrd gives the word to begin their long hike. He has -checked all their equipment and satisfied 1f that they have everything they need and that sleds and loads are efficlently arranged. While the land parties are chafing under the restraint imposed upon them by the cold—for it was 43 below last night, which is much colder than when Amundsen started his Polar journey on the 19th—the work on the planes is going ahead steadily. Today the snew is bei:fl shoveled away from around the Fairchild and the wings being put back in places, so that by dinner time the welcome sight of a plane ready to fly will make real the fact that Summer is coming. Plane's Gear Frozen Firmly. ‘The plane was left with the landing gear and skis in hole, where they | have been all Winter, so firmly frozen | in that a storm would+tear the wings off the plane without moving the skis, ' and such a storm is not anticipated | here where wind velocities do not reach | the intensity experienced at the Rocke- | feller Mountains last Summer when the Fokker was blown away. The engine of the plane is tuned, the carburetor has been taken out and adjusted and cleaned, and if it becomes necessary at any time to go to the assistance of the ! dog teams, the plane is all ready to fly. | Every one is anxious to see it in the air again, but it will be weeks before flying weather can be expected. This is the season of storms and sud- den changes in weather conditions, the season which compares with blustery March at home. And down here when ' the wind blusters it blusters quickly and with authority. i Birds Are Due Soon. There are signs that the birds are about to come back to us, Mike Thorne saw the first one a few days ago when he was out skiing along the edge of the | barrier. It was a petrel and, although it was flg‘-fll in the brilliant glare of the sun, he thought it was an Antarctic | petrel, one of the first birds to come back to this frozen land when the sun returns. A day or so later Paul Siple saw two or three petrels out near the edge of the ice and a black object in ::e wl:ur hnL(wl bflue nt:-y which he ough was to a seal and mlgl:t have been a whale. | by seals are being born on the bay | ice near the big cracks and openings | in the pressure ridges.

We feel the growers of the country are facing a brighter out- look than ever before.” It was sald the wool and mohair agency would be capitalized at $500,000 as against the grain agency's capitaliza- tion of $20,000,000. .
