A2 TARIFF PASSAGE THIS WEEK SEEN Combination of Conference Reports Thought to Assure Favorable Action. BY G. GOULD LINCOLN. Final action on the tariff bill in the BSenate before the close of this week ‘was predicted by leaders on both sides of the chamber last night. Prediction was made by both supporters and op- ponents of the bill that it would pass. Favorable action in the House, which must come on the conference report as well as in the Senate, is confidently expected. Eleventh hour shifts on the tariff bill by Benators have been rumored, but even so, there is an underlying feeling of confidence that there will be at least 49 Senators either voting for or paired for the adoption of the conference re- back to the Se: paraf have been before the Senate, one deal- with rates and the other in the main with the administrative features of the bill, combined so that there would be but a single vote, a_step was taken which shortened the fight over the bill, and also, it is is said, assured s passage.

A satisfactory explanation of the break in the long friendship between Willlam Howard Taft and “Theodore Roosevelt is still to be disclosed. What each of these distinguished Americans said concerning it so flatly contradicts at every polm what the other said that judgment is baffied as to the impelling causes. In the situation it seems best to set down the statements made by Col. Roosevelt and Mr. Taft to this writer and leave to the future the solution of the puzzle. In March, 1916, I met Col.

Mr. name frequently came up in our conver- sations, and one day the colonel said: “Some day, Mr. Peacemaker, I'll tell you the whole story.” On the afternoon of April 5, 1916, as the group of newspaper correspondents ‘whom Col. Roosevelt termed his “New: paper Cabinet” were entering the ft mous trophy room at Sagamore Hill drew me aside. “If you don't mind” he said, “Tll mtke the Taft story a cabinet matter “W!th ‘vacancy because ol Mr. Taft's nomination for the residency,” he said, “I suj ted after election that I would like to name to_the office one he ht retain in his cabinet when he took office.

It is true that I helped the President to get Luke Wright to accept the post of Secretary as my successor, but Wright was indolent and lacked force, and re knew it. Other Cabinet Posts. “So far as the Navy was concerned there was never any mention of Bill Loeb. Col. Roosevelt himself asked me to transfer George Meyer from the Post Office Department to the Navy and I consented. Lodge also wanted Meyer | named. Senator Hale pressed for | Weeks, but I was glad to comply with Mr. Roosevelt's request. I retained the incumbent, Mr. Wilson, in the Agricul- ture Department, and as for the Post Office Department, Frank Hitchcock was the logical man. Attorney General Bonapatte didn't want to stay, and I named Wickersham. “Finally, as to the Interior Depart- ment, I told Mr. Roosevelt, who had appointed Garfleld because of his great | work as Commissioner of Corporations, that I didn't agree with Garfield’s con- stitutional views. He was not a strong man. I didn’t retain Mr. Straus in the Commerce Department because I be- lleved l had a better man in Mr. Nagel. “All of these facts,” Mr, Taft con- tinued, “are beyond dispute. I have letters showing that Theodore under- stood the situation in advance of the announcement of my cabinet, and that he never ?}:red any objection or even b Approval.” R:r. ‘Taft informed me that he had interfered to prevent the publication of some of these letters a short time before the date of my_interview. “I do not propose,” he said, “to en- gage in any controversy with a dead man, I shall leave the whole ztory with & note of explanation to my chil- dren and they may do as they please them. I am simply telling you these bare facts because of what you already have from Mr. Roosevelt.” Taft's Harshest Criticism. ‘The harshest criticism I ever heard Mr. Taft utter of Col. Roosevelt was ex- , “was prone to hasty conclusions, and ln the heat of controversy forgot things. Mr. Taft added an expreulm of his belief that T.

June 7 ()—Jo- seph La l(ln 22, of Somerset, Wis., WASHINGTON VOTING T0 SETTLE DRY-WET DISPUTES Primaries in Maine, New Jer- sey and Other States Involve Issue. By the Associated Press. Prohibition 1is up for & decisive voters’ decision in the June State pri- mary elections. In Maine, the Bell-Wether State and one of the first to adopt prohibition, and in New Jersey it is an issue that has been baldly placed before the elec- torate as a_choosing point between candidates. In Minnesota the question of a referendum has been breached. “It is the first time,” Franklin W. Fort of New Jersey has said, “that the question of whether the eighteenth amendment to the Constitution shall be retained or repealed has been the clear-cut and unmistakable issue in any State in the United States.” Fort is a dry candidate for the Re- publican nomination for Senator from New Jersey against three men who have expressed varying degrees of ition to prohibition. They are Dwight Whit- ney Morrow, Joseph S. Frelinghuysen and John A. Kelly. New Jersey Wet State. New Jersey always has been s wet State. But as it comes in now in the van of elections in these times when discussion of prohibition has reached a new high mark of intensity the prob- able result takes on much importance in gauging sentiment on the eighteenth amendment. Morrow, an Amherst classmate of Calvin Coolidge and Ambassador to Mexico, is standing unequivocably for repeal of the eighteenth amendment. He wants restored to the States the in- dividual right to determine their atti- tude on the liquor question. Frelinghuysen, & former Senator, has & platform advocating governmental liquor control. A ‘“regular Republican oppoled to prohibition” is the way Kelly has designed himself. Fort, a member of the House, for- merly was secretary of the Republican national committee. He directed the pre-convention campaign of Mr. Hoo- ver for the presidency. His State will go to the polls on June 17, the day after Maine and Minnesota have voted. The three States will round out the June primary list. Prohibition as an issue has been raised in Maine in the Republican con- test for the nomination for United States Senator to succeed Arthur R.

By the Associated Press. SEDALIA, Mo, June 7.—Former Senator James A. Reed tonight con- vinced Missouri Democratic leaders that he was a candidate for the presi- dential nomination in 1832. As_keynote speaker at a State-wide Demoacratic rally, the former Senator's attack on prohibition, the Anti-Saloon x.e e and Bishop James Cannon, jr., e it appear to party chies from over the States that his candi- dacy would embrace a wet platform. Before Reed spoke, John T. Barker, city counselor of Kansas City, and for- mer attorney general of Missouri, had said from the same platform, “It is not beyond the realm of possibility” that the former flery Senate leader will be “nominated and elected President.” Barker referred to Reed as “the great- est Missourian, if not, perhaps, the greatest American.” The statement was roundly cheered. Because of Barker’s close personal and political association with Reed for many years, observers sald it was un- likely he would have advocated the ex-Senator for the presidency without Reed’s knowledge and approval, Comment Is Withheld. Reed, in his address, offered no com- ment on Barker's statement. Neither did he have anything to say regarding & virtual indorsement of his candidacy by the Democratic Press Auochuon of Missouri. The association said “‘We welcome his return as a great spokes- man of national Democracy.” A large crowd cheered Reed repeat- edly, especially when at the conclusion, after assailing the London naval agree- ment, he shouted: “I protest that the pacificist, whether he be a Quaker or a Briton, shall not pull down the American flag.” mkuu{ he had said Ihe naval treaty would reduce this country to a “secondary naval power,” and charged President Hoover, “now as in the past,” was "puylnx into the hands of Great Britain, For 40 yurl Reed declared, “the Re- wbl\nnp‘nyhubunthemlolm ufacturing and capitalistic inter- -fl.
