SCHEDULE REVISION
GROWING IN favor
Tariff Board to Keep Congress In.
formed on Foreign Change in
Duties Advocated.
BUSINESS WOULD BE BENEFITED

The tariff experts employed by the
Ways and Means Committee were busy
all of yesterday on the work of balancing
duties for the final form of revision.
Members OF the committee intimate that
some of the reductions will be greater
than many people have been led to ex-
pect. but they decline to give an exact
outline of the changes.
General revision OF the tariff at one
session may never again be undertaken
by any political party. The plan Of sched-
ule revision is growing In favor with
Congress, as tending TO cause the least
possible business and political upheaval.
Democratic leaders are looking with
favor on a plan of creating permanen:
board OF tariff experts. which is to work
under the direction of the House Ways
and Means Committee. This board. which
should not be confused with tariff
commission would keep in touch with
the operations of the domestic and for
foreign tariffs and inform the House
committee OF changes IN foreign laws
and in home conditions that may make
advisable a revision OF certain tariff
duties.
Acting on this report. and after a study
OF the conditions for itself. the commit
tee can bring out bill changing the
duties in some particular schedule with
out throwing open the entire tariff sys-
TEN for revision. BY this plan, it is
argued. there would be the least possible
disturbance to business generally or TO
the special interests to be affected by
the tariff changes.
Those urging the adoption of the sched-
ue revision plan say that there is a
growing sentiment throughout the coun-
try against keeping the tariff in politics
and in making business the football of
the politicians.

PARCEL POST SHOWS

CHICAGO LEADS THE CITIES

Reports submitted to Postmaster Gen.
eral Brleson show that approximately
30, ,0Oo, 900 parcel post packages were han
died throughout the postal service during
the month of February. which is about
Il, ,OOo, 600 in excess of the number handled
during the previous month.
These figures are based on the amount
of business done at the fifty largest post
business of the Unittd States is handled.
At these offices 24,as7.l $50 packages were
handled during the month of February.
compared with 10, .413 in January. When
it is considered that there were three
more days in January than in February,
those figures are all the more remarkable.
Actual figures for the calendar month,
regardless of the number of days, show
that the parcel post business at the fifty
largest Offices increased 2j.9S per cent dur
ing February over the previous month.
Considering the fewer number of days In
February than in January, the increase
was approximately SO per cent.
AS in January, Chicago exceeds all 9TH

handled with a total of 5,ls7.5io. and fol-

January, is now only about 10000 behind

In the reports made to Postmaster
General Burleson. postmasters state that
the interest taken in the new system is
generally on the increase. They indicat-
ed that there will be a general increase
in the volume Of this class of mail with
the approach of spring. There is no
congestion at any point in the service.
and the mails are moving with the usual
dispatch Merchants generally seem to
be making preparation to extend their
business into new fields as they become
familiar with the facilities afforded by
parcel post. The business in farm prod
ucts sent by parcel post. although not
extensive, is steadily increasing. and
with the opening of spring it is predict
ed that the farmers are going to make
more extensive use of the system.

with THE LADIES"
Secretary Of State Gets Caught in
Crush at Reception by Mrs.
Matthew T. Scott.
MANY ARE PRESENTED TWICE

The Secretary Of State was surprised
to find himself, not fguratively speak
ing. but actually "in line with the
ladies' Saturday afternoon. when. at
the large reception given at Conti-
mental Hall by Mrs. Matthew 7. Scott,
president general. d. A. R., for Mrs.
Bryan. Mrs. Burleson, and Mrs. Lane.
he was pushed forward by the jam of
gayly dressed women until he actu-
ally stood right next to the hostess.
After receiving the entire Diplo-
matte Corps in the red parlor at the
New Willard in the afternoon. Mr..
Bryan accompanied Mrs. Bryan to Con-
tinental Hall. where she was to re-
ceive with Mrs. Scott. They were late
in arriving. on account of the diplo-
mats tarrying beyond their accus-
toned time. and when they finally
reached the splendid blue drawing
room, where the hostess stood, they
were confronted by packed throng
of fashionably dressed women. who
refused to give way. even before the
great commoner.
1t was then that the women stand

that carried him through several fiery

through the crush toward the hostess.
Once arriving there. both of them smil-
ing broadly, they were sumnarily
pressed into line, Mr.. Bryan standing
beside Mrs. Scott. and. to his great
amusement, meeting the surprised look
OF the visitors. who expected to see
only women in line.
1t was very democratic-the Secre-
tary of State in line with the women
and was conducive to the same COM
Portable atmosphere of unconvention-
ality which caused the British Am
bassador. Mr.. Bryce. to arrive early at
the Secretarys reception at the New
willard. after being received. to quiet
ly sit down on a comfortable sofa and
remain there until the reception was
over.
But the surprise of finding Mr. Bryan
in line with the ladies was not alone
on their part, for nothing could have
exceeded the astonishment of the dip
lomats who had just been formally
presented to MIR. and Mrs. Bryan by
Chandler Hale. master of ceremonies
OF tho State Department. at the New
Willard. to again find him in line, and
this time with number Of smiling
women.
