By the Associated Press The tariff conferees of the Senal and House today approached the con- clusion of their gigantic task of bring- ing the two branches of Congress into agreement on more than 12,000 dis- puted points and looked forward to the submission of a partial report be- fore the end of the week. Fight controversies will be returned to the floors of the two chambers un- settled and further instructions re- quested. These are the rates on sugar, lumber, cement, shingles and silver and the Senate's amendments to the ad- ministrative provisions, which attached the export debenture plan to the bill. revoked the President’s authority to change rates by proclamation, and pro- - |posed a wide reorganization of the Tariff Commission On the rate schedules in disagree- ment, the House will take separate votes and the Senate will be asked to vote again on its amendments to the administrative sections. The conferees had before them today the settlement of but two more dis- putes before the measure could be turned over to statistical experts for the preparation of the report. These dealt with Senator Norris’ amendment providing for the suspension of dutics on commodities in which monopolies might be found operating and the House amendment to repeal the pro- vision of the present law which limits imports of Cuban cigars to packages containing 3,000 or more. All of the privisions still in dispute were the subjects of spirited contro- versies in the House or Senate when the bill was up for consideration. The House conferees were bound by a gen- tlemen's agreement not to come to a decision on the five rate schedules without asking House votes, and a similar arrangement bound the Senate conferees with respect to the export debenture and flexible tariff provisions. s S CITY NEWS IN BRIEF.

THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, GRUNDY MAY FACE |SHIP BOARD PROBE Kipling Mentioned As Poet Laureate To Follow Bridges Duties Unperformed Since Tennyson May End English Honor. By the Associated Pre LONDON, April 23—Rudyard Kip- ling, one of the most widely known and read British writers alive today, was widely mentioned last night for the post of poet laureate of England, va. cant since the death of Robert Bridges yesterday. Poets laureate are chosen by prime ministers, and so far Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald has made no an- nouncement. In addition to Mr. Kipling, Alfred Noyes, Walter de la Mare, Sir William Watson and Sir Henry Newbolt were considered possibilities. Many are wondering if there will be any successor to Mr. Bridges. Lord Tennyson was the last poet who performed in any measurable ‘de- gree the prime duty of the poet laurc- ate, namely, the writing of a poem or ode when the monarch was busied with anything of great moment. FEAST OF ST. GEORGE CELEBRATED IN ROME British Colony Observes Day in Memory of Martyr and Patron of England. By the Associated Pre ROME, April 23. 'he feast of St. George, the dragon slayer, martyr and patron of England, was celebrated fit- tingly today by the British colony in Rome and in all the churches serving the English Catholic community. Special interest attached to the serv- ices at San Giorgio in Velbaro, where part of the warrior-saint’s banner was exposed, as well as a reliquary contain- ing his skull. High mass was sung in the Church of St. George and the English Martyrs, situated just under the slope of the Pincian Hill, attended by the seminarians of the English and the Venerable Bede colleges, the Gray Nuns and Anglo-Saxon members of other religious congregations. Another sizable congregation was expected for vespers in the evening. St. Silvestro in Capite, in the com- mercial center of Rome, long set aside for English-speaking Catholics, offered similar services. An informal recep- tion was tendered by the British Min- ister accredited to the Holy See. Before— DAVISINFUND QUIZ Are Given Chance to Air Charges Before Senate Campaign Probers. Senator Grundy and Secretary of La- bor Davis, principals in the Pennsyl- vania Republican primary which will be held May 20, will be given an oppor- tunity to face each other at a closed session of the Senate campaign funds investigating committee next Friday and air their charges of campaign ir- regularities. Chairman Nye of the campaign funds committee favored such a course yes- terday after receiving first-hand from Secretary Davis some complaints about the conduct of campaigns. Senator Grundy previously had submitted com- plaints to the ~Senate investigators about combinations fighting his nom- ination. Senator Nye did not disclose the na- ture of the charges after his conference with the Labor Secretary. He said they did not involve campaign expenditures particularly, but that the charges came within the scope of the committee’s in- quiry. The committee has sent agents to Pennsylvania and Illinois to_inquire into charges involving senatorial candi- dates in those States, and upon receipt of reports the committee will be ready for hearings. Senator Grundy has complained of a hook-up in Pennsylvania against him- self by W. W. Atterbury, Republican national committeeman, and the organ- «ation leaders for William 8. Vare in Philadelphia. Senator Nye :aid in view of the complaints he probably would ask Grundy and Davis to appear be- fore the committee.

A sweeping investigation of the United | States Shipping Board, particularly in | lions of dollars in the sale of Govern- ment merchant ships, was voted yester- day by the Senate without debate.

Chairman O'Connor of the Shipping Board said, in a statement shortly after the decision of the Senate, that he would welcome the opportunity to “place be- fore the Congress an account of what has been done through the Shipping Board and Merchant Fleet Corporation agencies to enable private operators of American flag tonnage to compete on a more nearly equal footing with the merchant fleets of other nations. !
