With a blast at the American tariff | policy, the Cuban proposal for a two- year tariff truce was presented today to the Pan-American Commercial Con- gress with the request that it indorse such a principle. Dr. Gustave Gutier- rez of the University of Havana, repre- senting the Cuban government, assailed the tariff barriers which have been erected by this Government against {Cuban products and declared that “tariff war has resulted in practices as bad as military war.” Further fireworks were promised at a later session, when the declaration, which ordinarily would have gone to the Resolutions Committee for study and report, was held up pending deci- sion by a plenary session tomorrow on its disposition. Free Discussion Asked. Minister Varela of Uruguay, the presiding officer in today's session, di- rected that the declaration should go to the Resolutions Committee, which is composed of 21 representatives of Pan America. An objection came from Daniel Cosio, a representative of the Mexican government, who declared for free discussion on the floor. Other dele- gates joined in the demand, although it was stated on behalf of Cuba that they were willing for the matter to go through regular channels. In the end it was decided that the plenary session tomorrow will say if the matter goes to the Resolutions Committee or if it shall be thrown into a group session, which would allow every delegate to participate in the discussion before it comesz a plenary session for decision.

He was understood |to have acquainted the King with the | decision of the cabinet and advised him to dissolve Parliament at once. | Confounding political prophets, the | cabinet, unanimously decided last night to carry its troubles to the people at cnce on a platform to be framed solely by the prime minister. They agreed |to support him in his demand for a | “doctor's mandate” by which he would | prescribe for the country’s ailments the remedies he alone sees fit. | While observers had - predicted the cabinet would be split over the tariff issue, its unanimous action was taken to mean- that search for a formula which would satisfy all factions had been abandoned and Mr. MacDonald had been given carte blanche to cham- plon whatever measure he believed would best restore Great Britain's trade balance. | _ “Everything is straightforward.” he himself said as he left the meeting. Unusual Alignments. ‘The turn cf events engendered grave apprehension as to the future of the Liberal party. Sir John Simon, Liberal recalcitrant, led 22 of his colleagues in Parliament in pledging their unquali- fied support of Mr. MacDonald in the coming election. Their action was re- garded as irrevocably sealing the rift in the party. Further complicating affairs, Lavid Lloyd George, ailing Liberal chieftdin, was understood to have advised the prime minister during their conference yesterday that an election at this time would be “a perilous adventure” and to have threatened to run loygl follow- ers as independents cpposed to the na- tional government if it was held. He now controls only 36 members of Par- liament. It the Liberal chief stood by his threat, it was believed the election would turn into a three-cornered con- test among the government candidates, supported by the Conservatives and the Simonites, Independent Liberals, and Arthur Henderson's Laborites. If he remains on the sidelines, it would be a straight fight between Conservative- Liberal bloc defending a Socialist firtme minister against his former political comrades. Campaign Begins at Once.

Early in the afternocn the market learned that President Hoover had also jcalled a meeting of real estate men and | bankers for tomorrow. There has been much discussion here as to what could be done to ease the real estate situajion in many sections of the country and some reports have said that a large banking would be arranged to help out holders of defaulted bonds. Another factor in the turn-about so strongly reflected on the share market was a stock exchange order to mem- bers which will have the effect of fur- ther restricting short selling. The ex- change demanded that brokers, before executing all selling orders, ascertain whether such are actual sales of stock owned or are for the short account. — IMALONE TO INSPECT ' CORPS AREA TROOPS Major General Will Begin Tour at Fort Hoyle, Later Visiting Posts Near Capital.

At that time he was pledged ‘the support of the Democratic leaders in the interests of the country, al- though they reserved the right to pass in judgment the program advanced by the administration. | _ Tonight's conference, however, dif- | fers from the earlier two appeals by President Hoover to the Democrats for their support in meeting pressing prob- lems.

One of the leaders, speaking privately, expressed the view | the Republican administration was seek- ing to place upon the Democrats the responsibility of meeting problems which in reality should be the responsibility of the administration. At the same time this Democrat did not conceal the fact that his party leaders, if they failed to agree to a measure of co-operation, might be placed in a position of declin- ing to act in a patriotic manner in an emergency because of partisan political reasons.
