DIR. Thach extended him an ipvitation
to stop at Auburn and address the stu
dents of the Alabama Polytechnic insti-
tute when he makes his visit to Mobile
to the Southern Commercial congress the
la ST of October.
The President told Representative Clay
ton that it was practically settled that
he would go to Mobile in october, but
that it would be impossible for him to
make any engagements to stop over at
other points, either en- route to Mobile or
coming back. He said he had received
SO many such invitations and likely
would receive others, that to accept one
without the others would embarrass him.
The President spoke in the highest
terms of the work done at Auburn, with
which he seems perfectly familiar and
regretted that he could not spare the time
to visit the institution.

Senate Conferees Win

Washington. September 2s.-Apprehen-
sion lest the democratic tariff BILL lead

against the United states as soon as the
new law goes into effect caused admins
tration and Senate leaders today TO plan
the Introduction of Joint resolution In
Congress making specific provision for
the continuation of existing relations
with all countries until President Wilson
has time to negotiate new trade agrees
ments. The seriousness of the situation
that will confront the administration was
impressed on Chairman Simmons Of the
Senate committee today by state depart
ment officials. IT was pointed out that
the trade relations established by Presi-
dent Taft's proclamation under The Payne
Aldrich law OF 1909 would terminate as
soon as the new law becomes effeetive
and that the United States would then
face the p5saibiiiiy Of having higher tariff
rates applied AGAINST its exports by many
countries. While the tariff law would
not give The President authority to me-
gotiate trade and reciprocity treaties, it
would also require him to apply special
penalty rates against any countries dis
eliminating against the United States.

they showed the necessity for amend

gestions to offer. Senator Bristow IN
sisted that the small country banker
should be heard, and Senator Weeks said
that he had requests from six Massachu-

fore the committee
In his discussion of the bill, Mr.. Tn
termyer criticised vigorously the pro-
visions outlining the character of com
mereial paper to be used as a basis for
currency, declaring that 'the definition
was hope'essly loose" He said. however,
il would be advisable to permit the issue
of certain amount of currency on cotton
and grain warehouse receipts.
Mr.. Untermyer suggested that making
good commercial paper a basis for cur-
rency would result in deprving stock
