N 4 kkx HOOVER'S TARIFF VIEWS REQUESTED Senators of Both Parties Seek Attitude in Order to Save Time. By the Associated Press. Demands that President Hoover make known his position on the tariff bill as it now stands in order to save time were made in the Senate today by botih Re- publicans and Democrats as friends of the administration rallied to support of the measure. Senator Johnson, Republican, Cali- fornia, asscrted that when the Prest- dent insisted upon a certain proviston in the bill and representatives of the executive department used the “party lash” to whip Senators into line on the vision, then it was * to the execu- g‘v‘; to say whether he wants one kind of & bill or another.” ‘The President, he said, was remain- ing mute on rates. Senator Harrison, Democrat, Mississippl, suggested that Mr. Hoover take the Republican leaders into his confidence, saying if the Chief Executive “would just come out at this psychological moment and let either one or the other side of the Republican groups know where he stands, we could go along with the bill and save a lot of time. Disagreement on what the President wants leaves the country in «doubt.” Fess Opposes Request. Benator Fess, Republican, Ohio, said legislation should be left to Congress and “we should not take orders from the President.” ‘The reason why there was no solid- ity of opinion, said Senator Borah, Re- publican, of Idaho, is due to the Presi- dent recommending limited revision and the tariff-framing committee going be- yond that limit. Denying the bill had been “obstruct- ed” by the minority members of the finance committee, Harrison contended that the responsibility for the delay rested with the majority members. Senator Heflin, Democrat, Alabama, suggested the debate be limited, men-l ing that a bill of benefit only to agri- culture could not be passed as there were “too many industrial interests here” to permit it. Controversy Over Purpose. Senator La Follette, Wisconsin, of the Republican independent group, said if the bill was passed before the regu- lar session it meant the Senate must t the work of the Republican me of the Senate finance com- mittee and he would not hesitate to take whatever time he believed neces~ sary. Borah and Fess than engaged in a controversy over the purpose of the on. Borah, who is ac- credited by many as the influence which led President Hoover to call the ses- sion, insisted its sole purpose was for agricultural relief. Fess, however, said the Republican platform, which Borah helped write, promised tariff revision to industries needing it as well as agriculture. Individual Rate Up Today. ‘The second week of debate on the individual rate schedules of the measure began today with half of the items in the first schedule, that devoted to chemicals, oils and paint, still to be taken up. Fourteen more schedules remain to be considered when the first has been disposed of, and after these the free list must be debated. ‘Today’s daily controversy embraced a determined effort by the champlons of agriculture to impose an increased duty on vegetable, animal and fish oils and fats. The independent Western Repub- licans were actively behind a move to fix the tariff on these. commodities at 45 per cent ad valorem, as contrasted with various specific duties, estimated to fall short of that levy. Supported by Allied Group. ‘Their project had support from the administration group as well as from their usual Democratic allies. Jones of ‘Washington, the assistant Republican leader, and Thomas of Idaho were active sponsors of the 45 per cent ad valorem rate. ‘The dispute over the oil and fat dutles aroused the already settled con- troversy on imports from the Philip- pines, now duty free. The farm group contended that cocoanut oil from the Senate had already gone on record, however, as opposed to disturbing the gument free trade arrangement with archipelago, Referring to figures compiled by H. E. Miles of the Fair Tariff League, Senator Tydings of Maryland last night declared that the result of the work of Senator Bingham's “secretary lobbylst,” Charles L. Eyanson, pro- posed tariff rates which would give Connecticut industries an annual rev- enue increase of $53,000,000. Criticises Bingham. ‘He severely condemned Bingham's action in putting Eyanson, an official of the Connecticut Manufacturers’ As- soclation, on the Government payroll as his secretary, and as such having him attend the secret sessions of the finance committee, then considering tariff rates. Connecticut industries, Tydings said, are “among the most prosperous in the country.” He quoted figures on individual concerns to support his con- tention and described the Pmposed tar- ifY rates as “merely typical instances of the effort to get increased rates merely to swell profits,” and “tributes to the effectiveness of Secretary Lobbyist Eyanson’s work.” MRS. ALICE A. COZAD, FORMERLY OF D. C, DIES Mrs. Alice Atkinson Cozad, formerly of this city, wife of Oscar Orville Cozad and daughter of the late Henry M. At- kinson, at one time commissioner of nsions, died at her home in San cisco October 14, according to word received here today by her cousins, Miss Elizabeth Talb-tt and Miss Mary Tal- bott of 1826 Ingleside terrace. Mrs. Cozad was a granddaughter of the late Senator Thomas W. Tipton of Ne- braska. Mrs. Cozad was widely known as a musician in this city and had many friends here. She was at one time a member of the choir at the First Con- gregational Church. She was about 60 years old at the time of her deat!

ENGINEER DISAPPROVES SURVEY ON HERRING BAY By the Associated Press. A request of the House rivers and harbors committee for a review of the navigation facilities on Herring Bay and Rockhole Creek, Md., to determine whether any improvement was advisa- ble was disapproved by Maj. Gen. Lytle Brown, chief of Army engineers. Gen. Brown said in a report to the committee that the benefits which would result from a proposed deepening and widening of the channel in the bay and creek would be insufficient to justi- {y the Federal Government’s undertak- ing of the work even on a basis of co- operation with local interests. He added that the Board of Army Engineers rec- ommended no improvement of the bay and creek be undertaken by the Gov- ernment at the present time. ommoomoog Building? : The Hechinger Co. always saves you money on all your building needs! 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000004 3—Branches—3 MAIN OFFICE -6 & C.Sts S W.
