AD VALOREN RATE CHANGE ADVOCH Worsted Man Would Base oo American Valuation Washington, Feb. 26 P—A recom- mendation that ad valorem tariff rates be based on American valua- tion instead of foreign declared values was made to the house ways and means committee today by H. B. R. Scheel, vice president of the Botany Worsted Mills of Passaic, N 3 Appearing at a resumption of hearings on the administrative pro- visions of the tarift law, Scheel op- posed using foreign valuation in any form and urged that where Ameri- can values on articles generally com- parable with forcign are not ascer- tainable, the American selling price of tes imported article be used as a rate base. Scheel said it had been difficult to obtain foreign costs and almost im- possible to confirm forcign values for assessment of ad valorem duties. Such a system, he said, had led to international friction and worked to the disadvantage of American manu- facture! Foreign Values Vary Forcign values vary greatly, he said, adding that the lower the wages and other elements of cost abroad, the lower the duty and pro- tection for domestic mills, High cost woolen fabrics, he said, suffer most from such cost variations. Representative Cramton, republi- can, Michigan, urged exemption from the 50 per cent duty on cost of re- pairs to American vessels in foreign ports when such repairs are made with American labor and materials. Such duty is now applicable unless the repairs are of an emergency na- ture. Many ships repaired in Canada opposite Port Huron, Michigan, w ith domestic labor and materials, . ud should be exempt from the .q..mi duty. LIONS IN CONFLICT OVER MAGAZINE TALK (Continued from First Page) ting his own institution on the map. He got®the Lions club all snarled up in this salaclous literature ques- tion. Then we read in his magazine that we should read about the con- troversy on salacious literature and to read his magazine for clean liter- ature. He cashed in on his speech. I think it is very unethical. “Before we have any more speak- ers we should ask why they waunt to speak to us for nothing. Some speakers have nothing to say, and say no(hhl‘ in as many words as possible.” Some one objected to “phoney minister” to Vogel replied, “Well, he was deposed.” President Quigley defended Mr. Cleveland’s address, emphatically. he things he spoke of and the things he stood for are the things the Lions club should stand for at any time. The Lions club has not hurt itself a bit by attempting to drive out of New Britain this dirty, < rotten literature. It is not litera- ture—it is just plain rot. Whatever his motive may be, if we can get the authorities to drive them out we are amply compensated.” Mr. Vogel explained that he was not attacking the man, he was criti- cising the motive. ¥, C. Teich, vice president, Mr. Vogel. should not criticize speakers, since he has not been pre ent when some very good speak. have appearcd. He mentioned oral speakers with whom the club members in general were greatly pleased and who, he said, were very good, mentioning the astronomer, a Boy Scout official from New Yori and a speaker on anthracite -coal, who have appeared at different times, He said Rev. Mr. Cleveland came highly recommended. Mr. Bannan, who is chairman of the board of police commissioners, said: “I am inclined to side with Lion Lou (Vogel). The purpose ot Mr. Cleveland’'s talk was all right, but ofttimes when we advertise a situation of that kind, we advertise the matter we are trying 1o do away with. The talk given here has help- ed to increase the demand for that type of literature.” Past President Harry G. Hancock made a plea for more cooperation between the club members and the speakers’ committee. He called tention to the fact that good speak- ers are not always available and that other civic clubs were facing the same problem, Secretary O'Brien reported: “The speaker next week is Sam Cohen. 1| don't know anything about him.” He said the club has not lost ground in the so-called controversy. He said the speakers’ committce had arrang- «d for some one else, but did not follow up the invitation so that the Saturday before the mecting in question, no speaker was scheduled He, as secretary, was forced to get a speaker. He said he had heard Mr. Cleveland speak on Elihu Bur- ritt and found him a very eloguent speaker. He invited him to the Lions club. “Mr. asked me what to speak of answered ‘Lincoln and A laugh followed Mr., O'Brien's la- conic statement: “He did. st President P vised against letting impression get out XwZ::I T Fish~ befm"aladng GULDENS ‘Mustard ‘ the term which Mr. I understand said ail King mi into ad- aken the the and speak at | Cleveland | and 1| Literature.’ | | potls. newspapers that (here was any wholesale condemnation of speak- era. He said the club owed a debt of courtesy to men who gave their time and their labors to come and speak. Past President Harry C. Brown objected to the newspaper men pres- ent taking cognizance of the discus- | sion, saying they were present to re- port the speakers only. Mr. Ban- nan said he guessed the newspaper | ment, to which a newspaper man explained that they were there on| duty to report the meeting, and it was up to the men who spoke to use good judgment. Considerable semi-humorous criti- cism of newspapers followed, night the papers will carry captione saying ‘Lions Roast Cleveland laughingly commented Colonel W. W. Bullen, also a past president. Mr. Bannan advised the members to “use discretion in referring to speakers.” Mr. Vogel offered a resolution that henceforth reporters be required to make a pledge at the door that they will submit their copy for censor- ship before submitting it to their rewspapers. His resolution was greeted with more laughter. King Gillette, a national organizer, spoke on the installation of a new Lions' club in Plainville this evening. He advised the members to submit all their problems to Lions’ Internation- al and their troubles would vanish. He recommended more music and more singing. It was the first meet- ing the club has had without a mu- sical program this year, Mrs. George Loomis was present and spoke on “International Rela- tions.” | GOOLIDGE IS GLAD HIS TERN 1S OVER Welcomes End of His Responsi- bilities as President | Washington, Feb, 26 P—As the time approaches for President Cool- idge to relinquish his office, he has i feeling of regret at a necessary terruption to many pleasant per- sonal associations, but at the same time he feels relicved that th of his responsibilitics at hand.

DISPUTE GO OF FUND REFERENDU Sen. Christ and Mayor Paosessa Belore Assembly Committee (Special to the Herald) Hartford, Feb. 2¢ p di- vision of opinion on the advisability of placing specipl appropriations of $50,000 and more before the electors of New Britain for final decision, de- veloped at a meeting of the cities and boroughs committes of the gen- eral assembly today when Mayor A. M. Paonessa urged adoption of a charter amendment to this.effect, and Senator Ernest W. Christ asked his legislative colleagues to reject it. Senator Christ was given the priv- ilege of the floor first so that he might make known his reasons for opposing the move and then return to a meeting of a committee of which he is a member. The senator explained that a board of finance and taxation hears departmental requests for appropri- ations, then refers the matter in question to a sub-committee for fur- ther consideration after which the board takes action and reports to the common council. The common council which, he stressed, is an- swerable to the electorate, has the final say on appropriations. 8enator Christ said that he has no quarrel with the mayor on this proposition and that he would be pleased to learn of a satisfactory method by which the general pub- lic might have an opportunity to register its preferences, but that he does not believe the charter amend- wment answers the purpose. Of those who exercise the vote In New Britain there are many thou- sands'who are not direct taxpayers, Senator Christ sald, and he quel tioned the advisability of placing in their hands the power to spend the nioney of others. The common council meeting which aprpoved th report of the charter revision com- mittee was attended by few more than one-half its full membership and the vote was not unanimous, he informed the cities and boroughs committee, Mayor Paoncssa was the next to 5| k. He recalled that Senator Christ alone of the enuire charter revision committee had voted nst the proposal and that the common council endorsed the movement by a majority vote. He cmphasized the right of the public to have a direct voice in how its moncy is to be spent and cited the special elections as the ideal answer. Recalling the agitation against al- lowing the school commitiece to spend $540,000 for a Senior High school addition, which discussion was before the city governmental agencies for more than a year, the mayor said he was confident a ref- crendum to the public would have resulted in overwhelming defeat of the school committee’s plan, 3o this instance, seven of the 12 men on the hoard of finance and taxation voled in favor, and when it reached the common council, 13 voted for it and 11 against it. He questioned the advisability of having a common council make an appro- priation when there is 80 apparent a lack of unanimity of opinion, 1t was forccast that other pro- posed amendments to the charter will be put through without diffi- culty. They involve minor changes in practices in the city government. Present at the hearing this after- noon were: Senator E. W. Christ, Representatives Thure Bengtson and William I°. Lange, Mayor A, M. Pao- nessa, Mayor's Secretary Matthew J. Callahan, Attorney M. A. Sexton, Abraham Gorbach and Paul G.

REALTORS' LICENSE MEASURE REJECTED (Continued from First Page) tion to professionalism.” $10 License Was Sought The bill would require the pay- ment of $10 for the initial license and $5 for renewals, the insurance commissioner to make public an- nually the names of all to whom licenses were 1ssued. He would re- voke these licenses for malpractice. “This bill was urged upon us” Senator Peasley declarcd, “as, first, protecting public intcrest, and, sec- ond, as converting the occupation of real estate opcration into a pro- fession. “It docs not protect the public, and there is no justification for turning the occupation into a profes- sion, since neither the business methods nor the training of real- tors are up to the standard of a profession.” The Democrats agatn caused a dis- turbaice in the senate today, attacks by two resulting in two roll calls in which they adhered strictly to party lines. Tox Attacks Committee A violent attack by Senator Fox of New London, in which he advised the judiciary committee to “hang its head in shame,” and accused it of “acting more for political ex- pediency than for public service," preceded a roll call on a resolution appointing Frederick Schofleld judge of the Waterford court. Two attacks by Senator Goldstein of Bridgeport against the judiciary committee for reporting unfavorably on his two bills—one shifting the burden of proving contributory negligence in accident cases from the plaintiff to the defendant, the other providing that the driver of an auto, when® a case involving an accident is against the owner of the auto, be considered a duty authorized agent of the owner preceded two roll| calls, The senate concured in the ap- pointment of Schofield as judge, and rejected the two Goldstein bils, by a vote of 21 to 11. Senator Peasley, in reporting the favorable action of the judiciary on Schoficld, a carpenter, said that, of | the two men considered for the post, Schofield and former Senator J. James Fl Schofield was consid- cred the “wisest choice.” Criticises Selection To this Senator IFox retorted: “The committce ought to hang its head in shame. Schoficld was not the wisest choice, but the wisest political choice. Any time a group of men like those on the committee choose from the mechanical trades rather than from the bar an occupant of a judge- ship, then such a group is that behind the times, even if such a choice were made for’ political expediency. Why was not a lawyer chosen for the post?" Senator Fox said that ex-Senator Fioyd had established the court at Waterford and had served as its prosecutor for six years, and that, besides, he had come from one of | the best universities in the country. He then demanded a roll call. Senator Peasley replied: *There are times when it is wiser to appoint a carpenter to the bench than a lawyer. The best university doesn't al- ways qualify a man for a judgeship. We are informed that Schofield did not scek the post, that he knew no law, as Scnator Fox has said. “That is true. But it was consid- ered wiser to appoint him than the other man. The committee will not hang its head in shame and it has no apologies to m Roll Llll Tollows The roll call followed a vote which Lieutenant Governor Rogers thought was doubtful. Immediately thereafter, the senate concurred with the house in adopt- ing the resolution appointing Stanley Morgan judge at Waterford. Nominations Approved Governor Trumbull's nominations of the following were approved by the a mbly: Ralph T. Higgins, of West Hartford, chairman of the public utilities commission. for re- appointment; Sheridan T. Whitaker, judge, New Haven city court; Stan- ley Dunn, judge, New Haven city court; Newell Jenning: tol, judge of the sup Alyn L. Brown, of Norwich, judge, superior court, and L. .

Several democrats opposed the three in the house, the vote being; Jennings, 207 aye, $ no; Brown, 204 aye, 1 no; Marvin 217 aye, 3 no. The senate rejected the resolution re-appointing Judge Harold 8. Drew to the Ansonia banch. Senator Peas- ley declared ghat not only had two other men, Milton C. Ishell, and Carlos 8. 8torrs, already been ap- pointed, but also Judge Drew, hav- ing moved from Ansonia, had ask®d not to be considered for re-appoint- ment. Also rejected were the bills pro- viding annual registration of voters in towns of over 25,000 population and providing closing of voting polls in mrr under 1,000 at 5 p. m. Senftor Hull, in reporting un- favorable action on the latter bill, said it had been supported as giving farmers time to go home and milk their cows, as “milking in the night time 1s, it scems, too strenuous.” Benator Hull, after saying he him- self had milked cows in the night many times, did not think there was a need of such statutory regulation. Other Rejections Other rejections: Bill providing for removing the words “with intent imposing a fine or term of imprison- ment for removing, razing or de- stroying mortgaged property with- out written consent of the mort- gagee. Bill providing for salary of $25 to Bridgeport court interpreters, as against present $3 a day fec.

A bill which brought such a Jarge | attendance of pro and con speakers at committee hearing was rejected without comment in the Housc today. This bill provided that rural free delivery carriers be exempt from paying gasoline tax. At the time the finance committee considered | the bill, opponents declared such carriers use their vehicles for mail delivery for two hours a day "and then ride all over the state for Also rejected was the bill pro- viding that polls in New Fairtield be open from 7 a. m. to 5 p. m.
