THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., THURSDAY, JUNE 20, . 1935. TARIFF CHARGES No Discrimination Is Shown Against U. S., Parley Speakers Assert. By the Associated Press. ST. LAWRENCE UNIVERSITY, CANTON, N. Y., June20.—A spirited reply by Canadians to an American charge of ‘tariff*discrimination was given yesterday at the conference on Canadian-American affairs by John W. Dafoe, editor in chief of the Winnipeg Free Press, and two Cana- dian educators, Prof. Frank A. Knox of Queens University, Kingston, Onta- rio, and Prof. Robert McQueen of the University of Saskatchewan. Mr. Dafoe said the charge of Prof. Jacob Viner of Chicago that Canada, with its three-tariff system, was dis- criminating against the United States had not been proved. “To illustrate,” he said, “I use American wheat duties. Everybody knows we can sell a lot of wheat to the United States, but you put up & tarift of 42 cents & bushel and we bave to find a market elsewhere. Concessions Offered. “Under our system of main, inter- mediate and empire tariff schedules we go to other nations and offer them the intermediate rate on their goods in exchange for a preferred con- sideration for our wheat. The Ameri- cans, with a single tariff, argue that we have been unfair because we have three tariffs and the United States is not favored by our intermediate tariff. It is our contention, however, that concession should be given for concession, which has not been done under the inflexible single tariff sys- tem.” After the session Mr. Dafoe ex- plained his point by saying that it was possible that the new American tariff plan giving the President the right to change tariff schedules by 50 per cent, and the Hull program of bargaining, would have an important bearing on this situation. Public control of the air waves was advocated by Canadian and American observers at the main session, Debate Brought Up. In the ensuing private discussions, the question of public control was en- larged when the query as to how the recent Huey Long-Father Coughlin- Gen. Johnson debate got on the air came up. Levering Tyson, director of the Na- tional Council of Radio in Education, said an invitation to Johnson to speak free of charge “started the whole fight.” He said Senator Long and Father Coughlin demanded time and were given it free to reply, and the debate was then shut off because “it was believed that the public was fed up.” LABORERS, FARMERS URGED TO ORGANIZE Father Coughlin Declares They Must Have Political Solidarity to Get Just Dues. By the Associated Press. ST. LOUIS, June 20.—Rev. Charles E. Coughlin of Detroit last night urged American laborers and farmers to organize in order that they might enjoy their “just share” of the coun- try’s benefits. “*“Unionize yourselves’ is our slogan to the laborers and to the farmer,” Father Coughlin told an audience of 13,500 persons in an address in behalf of his National Union for Social Justice, “There must be a political solidarity established among the laborer, the farmer, the small business man and the small industrialist. This solidarity must become as efficient as that which exists among those who have been operating at a profit for the exploita- tion of the masses.” ‘The “radio priest” received a pro- longed ovation when he appeared and was cheered at frequent intervals as he drove home points of his address with a clenched right fist. e SCOUTS TO HAVE OUTING 2,000 Expected to Attend Annual Frolic at Glen Echo.

Lord Hardinge of Penshurst and Lord Rennell are the two critics. They want Ambassadors to recover “the im- portence lost when cabinet ministers started running ‘round Europe.” Lord Hardinge is & former per- manent undersecretary for foreign affairs, viceroy of India and Ambas- sador in Paris. Lord Rennell, for merly Sir J. Rennell Rodd, has been Ambassador in Rome and American non-national member of the United States-Venezuela Peace Commission. ‘The noble lords deplore “salf-im- posed ministerial peregrinations which nave penetrated cven to America” as fruitless and expensive ursurpations of ambassadorial functions. Before the war Ambassadors served as buffers between the foreign min- ister in their couniry of residence and the secretaryof stute at home, writes Lord Hardinge, He does not need an interpreter to discuss political ques- uons as cabinet rs generally do. His government can, if neces- sary, repudiate any agreement he makes, while ministers. with no buffer between them and their foreign coun- terpart, can only make agreements that are binding. Lord Rennell, whose letter followed Lord Hardinge'’s, protests against the inevitable publicily attached to min- isterial jay-walking and the “preju- dicial assumptions” with regard to its purpose.

Y., June 20— A human chain yesterday afternoom pulled Clarence Bell, 19, of St. Louis from the swift rapids several hundred yards above the American Falls, Bell was almost unconscious when his rescuers reached him where he clung to a rock about 40 feet from the shore. The rushing waters kept break- ing over his head. Had he lost his hold, his rescuers said, he would have been swept over the falls. One of them, Reservation Policeman Michael J. Senf, quoted Bell as saying he waded into the river intending to commit suicide after a quarrel with his companion, Luke Walsh, 16, of the same city as Bell. The two said they hitch-hiked here. Neither would tell what the quarrel was about. Both were -locked up while the authorities pondered what to do with them. Senf and three taxi drivers clasped hands and waded into the dangerous waters to reach Bell. The river is not deep here, but the swift current makes 1t dangerous.
