Ransdell, Democrat, of Louisiana, speaking at 9:30 o'clork tonight in the National Radio Forum, arranged by The Evening Star and sponsored h; the Columbia Broadcasting System. It will be heard locally through WMAL. Senator Ransdell was the author of the legislation and has worked on it in several sessions of Congress during the past four years. This session the measure passed both Senate and House, and on Monday President Hoover affixed his signature, making it a law. ‘The main object of the new law is to bring together, under the Public Health Service, representatives of every branch of science, in order to dig deeply into the causes of disease in search of cure and means of preventioh. The new law authorizes expenditure of $750,000 to establish this research institute, not by creating a new Gov- ernment agency, but by expanding the existing hyglenic laboratory of the pres- ent facilities of the Public Health Serv- ice, the law authorizes the Treasury to accept gifts unconditionally for "the study of human ailments, and also will establish in the health institute a sys- | tem of fellowships in scientific research in order to obtain proper sclentific per- sonnel and to encourage men and women of marked proficlency in entering the battle against disease.

DHARASANA, India, May 9.—One hundred Nationalist volunteers arrived | here this forenoon from Bulsar intent upon raiding the government salt pans. All were arrested and interned a: Dun- garl, A few members of a batch of congress volunteers c with offenses against the salt act apologized and were discharged from custody. Volunteers under 20 years old also were discharged. Sixteen were sentenced to six months’ rigorous imprisonment, NEW RANGOON DISTURBANCE. Military and Police Patrols Are Sent to Outskirts of City. RANGOON, Burma, May 20 (#)— Military pickets and police patrols were dispatched to the outskirts of the city to quell & new disturbance there this morning. Meanwhile the latest hospital report showed 81 persons dead and 382 pa- tlents inside and 300 patients outside of hospitals as a consequence of riot- between Burmese and Hindu dock workers the first part of the week. Other estimates sald 100 were killed and 900 injured. The main Indian business quarters were still closed today. Bhipping was at a standstill and the streets have not been cleaned in days, constituting a menace to health. SHOLAPUR DRIVE PLANNED. Volunteers Go From Bomba to Defy Martial Law Regulations, BOMBAY, India, May 320 (#)- Twenty-nine Nationalist volunteers left here today for Sholapur, where they will defy martial law regulations hibiting display of the Nationalist o f;venl arrests already have been made ere. Bombay Nationalist congress criers last night paraded the city calling upon the people to join today in a procession with the body of & non-volunteer salt raider who died of injuries received Sunday in the raid at Wadala. In the view of some observers there has been a remarkable revival of the Nationalist eonsreu energy since out- breaks in the Bhendi Bazaar district, Moslem quarter, the first of the week, in which Moslems attacked police. Four persons were killed and more than 50 wounded. The “war council” of the Bombay congress has decided to renew the mass ralds on the Wadala salt works, defy all the laws that can be defied, and to spend more effort and money on propa- ganda for the Nationalist cause. Although Moslem heads reavowed their opposition to the civil disobedience cam) &n there was expectation of wide Moslem participation in the movement from now on as the outgrowth of the trouble in Bhendi Bazaar. The war councll was sald to expect that help glven Moslem wounded during the riots by congress and Red Cross volunteers would strengthen their hands, Many Moslems were said to have offered their services. ‘The correspondent of the London Daily Express learned that both cavalry and infantry were called to help police at Lucknow, who found themselves Tuesday almost powerless to cope with a mob which gathered when congress volunteers were denled the privilege of o{'glnhlng & procession through the city. DECORATE SOLDIERS’ MARKERS ON SIXTE STREET Photo shows Mrs, Delia M. H. Guedry is standin, O. C. Barber and Mrs. STAR, WASHINGTO STAR WILL OFFER PRIZES FOR FISH Contest Opens Sunday, With Awards Each Month Until End of November. The fishing season is on. ‘The Evening Star, to encourage this healthful outdoor recreation, is going to conduct a game fishing contest for the anglers. The contest starts next Sunday, June 1, and closes on Novem- ber 30. Instead of waiting until the fishing season ends, The Star in its contest has decided to award the prizes each month, giving the angler an op- portunity to enjoy using his prize to catch other fish. Each month The Star, through its “Rod and Stream.” is offering a_prize for the largest fish landed in fresh and salt water. The fresh water prize will be a Heddon rod, a Shakespear reel and 50 yards of 18-pound test silk line. Another prize will be presented to the angler who hooks the largest fish in salt water. This prize will be a King- fisher split bamboo rod, a Fox surf reel, free spool and 100 yards of 30-pound test linen line. The Bureau of Fisheries estimates that 10,000,000 people go fishing each year. Of this ngnber at least 20,000 are local fishermen, and to these anglers and the anglers of the adjoining States of Maryland and Virginia, The Wash- ington Star extends a hearty invitation to join its 1930 fishing contest. All Have Chance. To the expert angler—the old timer— who has landed everything from trout to tarpon, and to the amateur fishermen Joining the disciples of Isaak Walton, who 18 anxious to win his laurels at the most fascinating sport of angling, the contest offers an equal chance. It is not always the most skillful angler that lands the largest fish, ‘The contest is open to everybody, men, women and children, in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia, who use the waters of Chesapeake Bay, the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers or their tributaries in quest of their fa- vorite fish. The young boy with his long bamboo pole, or & branch of a tree ‘for his rod and a hook bought at the coun- try store attached to a long piece of string has just as much chance to land one of the prizes as the angler who goes forth with the most expensive tackle. In the waters of the upper Potomac or the Shenandoah Rivers is lurking the small mouth bass which will carry off the prize in his class. What is more invigorating than to get away from the city’s many noises and the gas-filled air and enjoy a day on some quiet stream, filling the lungs with pure air and drinking in the scenic beauties of- fered. Many such places will be found in the upper Potomac and Shenandoah River regions. And the lower Potomac with its many coves and creeks located on both sides of the river spells freedom from the weary grind of the day's work in the city. Many a big-mouth bass is waiting down there to take a lure or a live bait and in return reward the anglers with one of The Star's prizes. The Fish Are There. Again, there is that beautiful body of water, the Chesapeake Bay, where rock- fish, trout and taylors will be attacking the many different lures offered by the anglers, and what is more beneficial to health than & motor-boat ride on salt ‘water even if you do not land a prize fish? Hope springs eternal also in the fishermen’s breast. If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. No one has more patience than a fisherman. Edgar Guest in his poem says, “A man’s. at his best out fishing.” 1 Somewhere in river, stream or bay, as every fisherman knows, that “fish I al- most caught” is waiting. At one time or another he has been “almost landed” by every angler, but he is still at large. His liberty stands as a challenge to every self-respecting follower of Izaak Walton, Something ought to be done about it. To encourage his capture The Washington Star is conducting this contest. An entry blank will be printed in The. Star each Friday. All the ler has to do is to first catch his fis) n fill in the entry blank, have it nlmedm?x witnesses and mail to Editor, and Stream, Washington Star, Washington.

HOOVER REPORTED FAVORING TARIFF OUT OF POLITICS (Continved From First Page.) provision in the bill gives the President much the same power over tariff rates that he has under existing law. The President is authorized by proclama- tion to approve the rates of duty rec- ommended by the tariff commission “If in his judgment such rates.of duty and changes are shown by such investi- gation of the commission to be neces- sary to equalize differences in cost of production.” Deviation Prohibited. ‘The only limitation placed upon the President in the new agreement on the flexible provision which does not exist in the present law is that he must accept & duty laid down by the Tariff Commission and is not authorized to deviate from that rate. After the com- mission has made an investigation and report of its recommendation, however, the President has full power either to put the new rate into effect or to place the recommendation in his pocket and let it die there. Under the earlier agreement of the conferees, the President had 60 days in which to determine whether he would promulgate the rate recommended by the tariff commission or veto it. If he did neither, then the rate recommended by the commission automatically be- came efective. This is the power which is now taken away from the tariff com- mission by the new agreement. Fifty Per Cent Is Limit. The President, under the flexible pro- vislon now agreed to, and the Tariff Commission, are umlu;i ‘x’l‘: em::.‘. ?dg rates to 50 per cent o e raf down in the Gariff law. ‘That i3 simllar to_existing law. They may not recommend or au- thorize a transfer of an article from the dutiable list to the free list or from the free list to the dutiable list or a change in form of duty. This, too, is similar to existing law, Senator Smoot, chairman of the finance committee, said he would sub- mit the report on the tariff bill again to the Senate today. He indicated, how- ever, that the Senate probably would not be in a position to take actionjon it until Monday, owing to the Memorial day holiday tomorrow and the fact that many of the Senators have engagements which will keep them away from the Senate and the city until Monday. ‘The new agreement, it is believed, will meet the objection raised to the earlier agreement, which was that the conferees had exceeded thelr power by placing in th bill provisions Which were not glclufled in the bill as it passed %hll d or. fix the price of their product to Ameri- can consumers without any chance of that the conferees would recede, “and that in the end the President would win_out. “It looks now like he might win" | Senator Harrison continued. “There ia but one barrier in his way—the Senate of the United States—but that makes our responsibility more pronounced.” Senator Harrison said he understood the report of the conferees would not be brought up until Monday, but he de- sired to discuss the matter today in order that “the country may know what is about to be done, to let them know of the crime about to be committed on the American people.” " Senator Harrison declared that the action taken this morning in conference would destroy what the Senate sought to ucnmglhh on thl:hguemon and will President Holds Power. Senator Harrison said the House bill and the present law gave the President the power to raise or lower rates 50 per cent, under which the Tariff Com- mission would merely furnish facts, bul that the President was not bound- to accept the rate recommended by the 'oom‘wm‘ hn‘:m‘m Thm‘nlwr from Missis- sa/ cl e agreed upon is that the President cannot disregard the Tates recommended. He declared, how- ever, that the President would hold the power under this proposal either to Accept or reject the findings of the commission. 1t the commission should: recommend & reduction of 50 per cent in a rate, Senator Harrison said, the President would not have to accept it, but “could Ppigeon-hole it and flaunt the rights of tax go on.” Senator Harrison sald that under the Senate plan that could not happen, because, he said, after 60 days the recommendation of the commission would have !one into effect under the Senate amendment, Senator Harrison attacked the new agreement on the flexible provision be- cause, he said, it gives the President the power to designate the chairman of the Tariff Commission and continue that chairman as the head of the com- mission for the full seven years as his term as commissioner. Under the earlier agreement it was provided that there should be rotation every year in the chairmanship of the commission, there- by placing at the head of the commis- sion Democrats as well as Republicans, “Gold Dust Twins.” ‘The Mississippl Senator, characteriz- ing Benator :mool, chairman of the finance committee, and Chairman Broussard of the Tariff Commission as the Gold Dust twins from Utah,” de- clared that Senator Smoct had been the member of the conference who today proposed that the President should have this power of selecting & chairman for & number of years, Senator Barkley of Kentucky asked if Chairman Broussard did not on last Saturday issue a statement that the B:nd\n[ tarift bill w%uld be of great nefit to the Americah farmers, Pounding his desk, Senator Harrison replied that the chairman of the Tariff Commission had issued such tate- ment, which Senator Harrison called a ?ollticll pamphlet. He insisted that he tariff commissioners had no busi- ness putting out such statements, ap- parently designed for political pur- poses alone and to help the President and the chairman of the Senate finance committee. ““The first sentence of this pamphlet,” .l!lld Be:lh:r lHll'rI.wl} ;:!&dn as fol- ows: ‘Agriculture will benefit greatl. by this bill.’ s “That's a fine statement,” said Sena- tor Harrison, sarcastically. “These tariff commissioners ought to know that as a matter of fact agriculture will be ham- strun® by this tariff bil Senator Smoot interrupted to point out that Commissioner Dennis, a Dem- ocrat, as well as Chairman Broussard, had signed the statement issued last Saturday. Senator Glenn of Illinois, Republican, twitted Senator Harrison because he was now complaining about the new agreemeént on the flexible Fruvman when he might have had the old agree- ment if another Democrat, Senator Barkley. had not raised the point of order which sent it back to conference, Senator Harrison admitted that from his point of view it would have been better if Vioe President Curtis had not sustained the point of order made by Senator Barkley. “I hold in my hand,” continued Sen- ator Harrison, “a draft which was given to Representative Hawley by some one close to the President. Pre- sumably the President had a hand in writing this draft. Anyway, Mr. H ley assured the conferees tha were adopted for this flexible provision it would be satisfactory to the Presi- dent.
