TARIFF: CHOIGES -~ LIKELY T0 WAIT President Still Faces Difficul- i ! ties of Filing Commis- i sion Places. By the Associated Press. ‘With only one month remaining in Which to select the six members of the feorganized Tariff Commission, Presi- dent Hoover yesterday still faced the unexepected difficulties that have arisen in the choosing of a chairman. Day after day since he was directed by Congress two months ago to re- organize the commission within 90 days Mr. Hoover has canvassed the various names submitted to him and several Teady have begn offered the chairman- ship and have declined it. ‘The Chief Executive, it was explained yesterday, thus far has found himself in the predicament of wanting men who ‘will not or cannot accept and of being pressed to appoint men who do not measu:z up to the standard he desires. Patriotic Service Wanted. Mr. Hoover is known to be seeking a type who would not consider the post merely for the remuneration, but who ean be prevailed upor to serve as a patriotic duty. Realizing, however, that the chair- man of the new commission is to be a storm center in much of the fuiure controversy over the tariff act, partic- ularly UTelible provisions, and that in December they must run the Sen- ate gantlet for confirmation, those to ‘whom Mr. Hoover has Yendered the post have been reluctant to serve. Some. progress is reported to have been m& by the President in the se- lection of the other members of the commission, although no names are be- ing announced pending selection of the chairman. Indications have been given at the White House that Edgar B. Bros- sard of Utah. now chairman of the commission, and Alfred P. Dennis of Maryland would be the two incumbents retained. Power Body Difficulties. Meanwhile, Mr. Hoover also is having difficulties with the newly created Power Commission. Undecided whether the law permitted him to make recess appointments to this body after the Senate failed to act upon his three nominees, the President sought a legal opinion from Attorney General Mitchell. This has been received at the White House, and while not yet made public is understood to hold that thé law is not specific upon the matter.

By the Associated Press. | MOSCOW, August 16.—A modest, | self-effacing mother directs the spend- | ing of nearly two billion dollars annuaily | for Soviet Russia. And she still can make all her own clothes and do her own cooking! Barbara Nikolaevna Yakovleva holds | one of the world’s biggest jobs. She is| Russia’s commisar of finance, a post| comparable to that of Andrew W. Mel- lon, Secretary of the United States Treasury. Salary Is Small. Her salary is $150 a month—a tenth | of Mellon's—although millions of rubles | pass through her hands daily. She is the only woman member of the Soviet_cabinet and only one other na- tion, England, has a woman cabinet ‘member. Once an obscure revolutionist, hunted by the Czar’s secret police, Mme. Yalov- leva watches expenditures of the gov- ernment with the shrewd eye of a care- ful housewife. In her vast financial | household she employs 15,000 men and | 2,000 women. | She, herself, toils 16 to 18 hours a day. Sundays and holidays included. She lives in a small, 5-room flat near | a workers' settlement with her aged | parents and her two children.

By the Associated Press. ATLANTA, August 16.—J. W. Arnold, | chairman of/a factional Georgia State Republican central committee, issues a statement today saying the Southern Republican organization met here yes- terday and adopted a resolution re- pudiating the interpretation placed by newspapers on the actions of the body at its organization meeting two weeks ago in Savannah. At the Savannah meeting resolutions were adopted severely criticising the administration factions of Postmaster General Brown, which are handling in several Southern States business nor- mally transacted by the State organ- izations, . Lon Cunningham of Huntsville, Ala., as secretary, and Arnold as chairman, signed the sttement telling of yester- day'’s action. The statement said newspapers in ac- counts of the Savannah meeting had designated members of the organization as “bolters,” and made it appear that the organization was formed for the purpose of setting up an independent party and had indicated the organiza- tion was opposed to_ President Hoover and his policies. It declared these Interpretations to be “untrue and with- out any foundation of fact whatsoever.” ‘The resolution affirmed the group's loyalty to the President and pledged him support, and added: b “We further declare that the highest purpose of this organization is, by the co-ordination of the Republican forces of the several Southern States, to promulgate the principles of the Repub- its leaders. We hope to build up & strong Republican party, representative of the South and expressive of the will and ideal of Southern people.” At the Savannah meeting, the South- ern Republican_organization, went on record as charging “a fabricated, tem- porary political set-up in the South had been created” to control delegates to the next national convention for personal, selfish aggrandizement. The group at that time said it “condemned such practices and shall devote its time, personnel and effort to eliminate this method of procuring them.in .the future.” 1t also lauded the leadership of Col Horace A. Mann, who had charge of the Hoover campaign in the South but who has not since that time figured as a leader in administration councils of the party. Both Mann and M. O. Dunning, col- lector of customs at Savannah, Repub- lican candidate for the United States Senate and supported by the Arnold group for national committeeman from Georgla, were scheduled to attend the meeting, but Arnold said neither was t. p‘:'l:lold declined to give the names of those attending either the meeting of the Southern Republican organization yesterday or the State Executive Com- mittee today. .

MAYOR OF DANVILLE 38 YEARS, WOODING AT 87 STILL IS ROBUST Veteran Head of Virginia Town Has Paid Less Than $10 in Doctor Bills While in Office. Special Dispatch to The Star. DANVILLE, Va., August 16.—Capt. Harry Wooding, referred to as America’s oldest mayor in the point of service, marked off another milestone in his long and eventful career yesterday when he observed the thirty-eighth anniver- sary of his first election as mayor, on August 15, 1892, a post which he has held since continuously. After 38 consecutive years in office, Capt. Wooding, who is now in his eighth-seventh year, is still hale, hearty and abreast of times and his robustness is best revealed when it is said that his doctor’s bill for the past 45 years has not exceeded $10. He says he does not feel a day older than 20 years ago and attributes his long life and good health to the maintenance of an even temper, a refusal to allow official business to disturb his mind, an ability to make U PEERLESS FURNITURE STORES [l 94 SUITES friends with the younger generation and by accepting changing conditions as a normal development of the _times.

RICHMOND, Va., August 16.—Cold storage suppljes in Virginia tend to dis- courage any ibility of a food short- age in spite of the drought's devastating effects. The July cold storage report of P. C. Breazeal, director of the dairy and food division of the Department of Agricul- ture and Immigration, shows that the - amounts of 17 commodities in storage were greater on July 1 than on July 1, 1929, while only five showed a decrease - for the year. The greatest amount of any com- modity on hand was that of frozen pork. 2,034,220 pounds, a gain of 6241 pounds over the smount stored on July 1. 1929. Miscellaneous meats were slightly less than a year before, with 1,180,800 pounds, a drop of 117,186 pounds since July 1, 1929, Tong 0il From Many Sources. Unless you have an intimate acquaint- ance with the manufacture of mw t you will never have heard much about Tong ofl. For many years the source of | supply has been China, where the ofl was extracted from the Tong tree by ' very primitive methods and shipped * about the world to be used in the man- ufacture of paint. During the war there was a great and sudden demand for it from all. quarters. It was required for the treatment of airplane wings to pre- vent them from becoming waterlogged. * China could not meet the demand, and thousands of acres of oil-producing trees were laid down in America. Since * then A‘mfl'}c;lh has l:ld practically a monopoly o e world's supply and has * been producing 50,000 tons pl‘l)n{ullly. Realizing the enormous importance of * the industry, the authorities at Kew * began some years ago to raise Tong trees and to experiment with them. It has now been found that they grow readily in New Zealand, Australia, India and Africa. Big plantations have been made in these coumrfi and within a few years it is hoped Phey will be able to provide all the Tong oil that is re- quired in Great Britain.
