HOOVER IS EXPECTED TO SIGN ON RECEIPT House Votes Tomorrow on Confer- ence Agreements Adjusting Dif- ferences Between Houses, With Approval of Schedules in Short Order Expected. By the Associated Press. The Senate today passed the tariff bill by adopting the conter- ence reports. The vote on adoption was 44 to 42. The vote assured final congres- sional approval of the tariff measure. The House will vote tomorrow on the conference agreement adjusting differences between the two branches, and affirmative action in a few hours is expected. President Hoover probably will receive the year-and-a-half-old Hawley-Smoot bill next week. Republican leaders have predicted he would sign it. He will study its provisions before acting.

Opening the last three hours of de- bate before the final vote, at 2 p.m. Senator Connally, Democrat, Texas, said the farmer was not helped by the legis- lation and he could hope for little re- lief except through the export debenture plan. which was stricken out of the bill by the conferees. “The American farmer,” he said, “is the most popular individual—at election time. but after that he loses his popu- | larity except for orations in his behalf.” Connally said the bill “increases the s0st to the people at home and increases the number of their enemies abroad.” Asserting the “world is in rebellion against these taxes of Congress,” Sen- ator Simmons, Democrat, North Caro- Iina, contended foreign countries would | “no’longer give us their trade.” No Help for Agriculture. “I do not see how this bill can posssibl_\'l help agriculture, the most depressed of | all industries,” he continued. “Th?] little help held out for agriculture, will be many times offset by the increased burdens levied on it by the excessive industrial rates.” Senator Robinson, the Democratic leader, asserted “as a feature of the ad- . ministration’s farm relief program the bill is an abortion.” “It perpetuates and intensifies in- equalities and discriminations between agriculture and other industries,” he said, “For this reason it violates the platforms of both political parties.” Winding up the contest for the Re- publican proponents, Senator Watson, the majority leader, said: “If this bill is passed this Nation will be on the upgrade financially, economi- cally and commercially within 30 days, and within a year we shall have re- gained the peak of prosperity and the position we lost last October.” i He assailed Henry Ford and Alfred | P. Sloan, president of General Motors, | for their opposition to the measure, say- | ing they both produced automobiles abroad and “want free trade in those articles in order that they may com- pete in our market where they pay 50 per cent more wages.” Final Bill Is Compromise. The bill as it stood at the final roll call was not the measure which passed either House or Senate, but was a com- promise between the two, reached by conferees of the two houses, as was the case in virtually all the 20 tariff bills that preceded it. Supplanting the Republican Fordney- McCumber act of 1922, the measure would raise an estimated revenue of $630,000,000, or $107,000,000 more the existing law based on 1928 importa- tions. Of 3218 named commodities and bas- ket clauses comprising the measure, changes are made in 1,122, or about 32 per cent of the total.

WINDERMERE, England, June 13.— Maj. Sir Henry O. Segrave, interna- tionally known speed king, died shortly after 5 o'clock this evening from inju- ries he suffered when his speed boat overturned on Lake Windermere. The famous racer, who held the world | automobile ecord of 231 miles an_ hour, lost his life while testing out his newest | speed boat, Miss England II, with which | he hoped to capture the International| Trophy at Detroit this Summer.

MMORROW VIGTORY ON WET [SSUE 1S BELIEVED CERTAIN 'Republican Drys Hope Fort Will Win Through Vote Division. BY G. GOULD LINCOLN, Staft Correspondent of The Star. NEWARK, N. J, June 13.— The { nomination and election of Dwight W. Morrow to the Senate is New Jersey's opportunity for a place in the sun. That is the sincere belief of thousands { of citizens of this Commonwealth almost on the eve of the senatorial primary. Unless the usual political signs fail and veteran politicians and observers are at fault, Mr. Morrow will be the nomi- | nee of the Republican party. There is & fight on, however. The principal question at issue is national prohibition. Mr. Morrow has declared himself opposed to national prohibition and in favor of control of the liquor traffic by the States. He has declared emphatically individual States. if they desire, should have the authority to adopt prohibition and that they should be protected in their desire for prohibi- tion. He is opposed to having the Na- tional Government undertake, as it has, 1o control or to prohibit the manufac- ture and use of alcoholic beverages. Mr. Morrow has three opponents in the Republican primary. The first in the fleld was former Senator Joseph S. Prelinghuysen, who formerly was con- sidered a dry, but who during the present campalgn has switched and de- clared himself for a change in dealing with liquor, favoring a system some- what like that adopted in Canada, where the government has undertaken to act | as distributor of alcoholic beverages. Fort Is Real Competitor. Mr. Morrow's second opponent is Representative Franklin W. Fort, sup- porter of the eighteenth amendment, secretary of the Republican nationai committee during the Hoover presiden- tial campaign and a close friend of the President The third entry against Mr. Morrow is John A. Kelly of Monmouth County, a wringing wet. If it were not for the candidacy of Mr. Fort, the nomination of Mr. Morrow would be a comparatively simple affair. | The Ambassador to Mexico has the sup- port of the Republican organization of | the State, generally speaking. That, added to his own personality, his repu- | tation as a business man and as a dip- | lomat, made his nomination practically | sure. With Prelinghuysen and Kelly espousing the cause of prohibition med- | ification or repeal, along with Mr. Mor- | row, the wet and dry issue was insig- | nificant. But when Mr. Fort threw | his hat in the ring as a dry, the situ- ation changed over night. Because of the Fort entry, New Jer- sey has become a new battleground over which the wet and dry forces are waging a desperate struggle. The drys in the Republican party sce a chance, | through a divided vote of the wets, to nominate their candidate and defeat both Morrow and Frelinghuysen. They are leaving no stone unturned to bring about this end. The Anti-Saloon League, many of the churches and in- dependent supporters of national prohi- bition have taken off their coats and gone to_work to defeat Mr. Morrow. (Continued on Page 3, Column 1.)

By the Associated Press. BOSTON, June 13.—Members of the | crew of the steamship Fairfax seemed | fairly efficient and the confusion on | board lasted but a few minutes after the | collision of the Fairfax and the oil er Pinthis in Massachusetts Bay Tues- | day night, Harry E. Kipp, Marine ser- | geant, testified today at the opening of the second day of the Federal inquiry into the disaster which claimed 47 lives. Kipp, who had been stationed at the Boston Navy Yard, was proceeding un- der orders to Norfolk as & passenger on the Merchants & Miners liner Fairfax | when the ship drove her bow into the | ofl tanker a few miles off Scituate. | Immediately after the crash, Kipp | said, he came out of his cabin. on the port side, to find smoke and flames | cutting off the first exit and he had to| cash for another. As he arrived on deck | there scemed to be some confusion, but | it was brief. The Marine said he saw several man and woman passengers and members of the crew jump into the sca, and he saw one lifeboat filled with colored men, ap- | parently of the crew. They were sitting | quietly, however, and not making any effort to lower the boat. Some time later, possibly an hour and a half after | Helped to Fight Fire.

A. J. Powell. third officer of the Fair- fax, went back on the stand today at his own request. Powell appeared yesterday with a large bandage across his upper lip, but denied_he had been hurt in the colli- sion. Today. he reiterated his denial Hoover asked him a number of tech- nical questions about preparations for launching lifeboats. Others Take Stand. Miss Nellie Todd, an entertainer on | the boat, said there was no trampling of passengers and little disorder. She said the crew behaved well and that she saw one colored waiter going about breaking open cabins and assisting pas- sengers in getting out. Miss Dorothy Mannix, a nurse on the ship, told of her eflorts to quiet pas- sengers and of rendering ald to those who were hurt. Miss Jane Stone of Washington, chief stewardess on the Fairfax, told of as- sisting Mrs. Ida Berkowitz, 22, of Bos- ton and her son Robert. Both Mrs. Berkowitz and the child died at the Carney Hospital from burns and the effects of smoke. Mrs. Berkowitz refused to enter a lifeboat until a lifebelt had been placed around her child, Miss Stone testified. She described the difficulty with which she cared for the injured woman. William M. Smith, chief steward of the Fairfax, opened his testimony by saying that ‘“nothing in the world could have been done that was not done.” He sald he had charge of 43 members of the crew, including stewards, waiters, the nurses _and_entertainers. _Eleven (Continued on Page 2, Column 8.) BALTIMORE OVERTAKES BOSTON, HISTORIC RIVAL FOR CENSUS LEAD Both Cities Pushed Down on List by Entry of Los Angeles Into “Big Five” Class. By the Associated Press. Historic Boston today woke to Friday the thirteenth luck—she had lost her | population lead of half a cen‘ury to| equally tradition-filled Baltimore. Shel also failed to pass St. Louis. From the beginning of census time, 1t has been nip and tuck between Bos- ton and Baltimore. Boston led in the first census of 1790. Baltimore took the lead from her in 1800 and held it until 1880. Then the New England city again zxed to the front. Now Baltimore, with 789,921, a 7.2 per cent increase, takes precedence over. Boston, present population 775,729, giving them eighth and ninth places, respectively, both beinz pushed down the list a notch by the entry of Los Angeles in 1920 into the “big five.” St. Louis held the lead over both Boston and Baltimore. with 817334, The relative rank of the first 10 cities now is certain as follows: New York, Chicago, _ Philadelpht: Detroit, Los Angeles, Cleveland, St. Louls, Baltimore, Boston and Pittsburg! | contribution. | question, DISTRICT FUND BILL ISTHOUGHT DOOMED AS CONFEREES SPLIT Attempts of Senate to Reach Agreement by 70-30 Com- promise Fail. 1930 CONSTRUCTION HERE FACES DEATH School, Street, Road, Water, Sewer, Grade Crossing and Other Proj- ects Would Be Killed. The District appropriation bill for the fiscal year beginning July 1 ap- peared doomed today when the Senate and House conferees parted at noon after another futile effort to compromise on the amount of the Federal con- tribution. When the conference adjourned, a report was being drafted for presenta- tion to the Senate and House stating that after a full and free conference, the managers on the part of the two houses have been unable to agree This means that unless some un- foreseen development should occur, the regular appropriation bill will fail and Congress will have to put throvgh a continuing resolution to take care of the routine operating expenses of the Municipal Government. Such a reso- lution, however, would not permit of any new construction work of any kind. House Declines Compromise. ‘The Senate conferees made two prop- ositions this morning, either to ompro- mise with the House on the lump sum at some point between the House figure | of $9.000.000 and the Senate figure of $12.000.000. or to adopt a new ratin| of 70-30 for apportioning the cost of running the National Capital between the District and Federal governments Both propositions were turned down by the House conferees.
