together IL I had my pick of all the
players Inv the two major leagues. MY

LOBBY CHARGE:
is SUSTAINED
Senator Oyermann, of North
Dakota, So Declares.
Special By United Press Wire.

Washington, June 6:-"President
Wilson's charge that powerful and
insiduous lobby is fighting to defeat
the tariff measure has been fully
sustained This was the emphatic
declaration OF Senator Overmann, Of
North Dakota. chairman Of the SEN
ate investigation committee, when he
announced that the Investigation
would be extended over the ten days
period, which the Cummins resolu-
ton creating the committee testified.
Overmann declared that the sixty
FIVE senators who had been examined
had proved conclusively to the COM
mittee that at least three specialized
lobbies, with branches reaching out
all over the country, are using every
method to defeat certain provisions
in the Wilson-Underwoo bill.
These Hobbies, he said, were sugar
trust, wool trust and insurance or
CARNATIONS. He declared they were
making lavish use Of newspaper ad-
vertising, briefs, circulars and tele-
grams to create national miscon-
struction of the effect Of tariff
changes, in an effort to force the
national Legislators to vote as they
(the trusts) desired.
The committee today issued sub
poenaes for seven more manufacture
ers and manufacturers agents who
have been active In fighting the tariff
measure since 1t reached the senate.
They are Truman G. Palmer, Of New
York; Frank G. Lowry, Of New York;
Winthrop L. Marvin, Of Boston; ex-
Congressman Charles B. Landis, of
Indiana; Robert Crane, of Baltimore; f;
George Gtllitan, Charles Hamilton,
both of Washington.
1t is thought that the ques-
tioning of senators will be concluded
today and a number of sugar and
wool lobbyists are slated to be called
late in the closing sessions of the
day.
Senators Tillman, of South Caro-
lima; Warren, of Wyoming; Weeks,
of Massachusetts; Williams, of Miss
issippf and Works of California were
called today, the latter being the last
alphabetically on the list of the up
per house.
Asked who will be called as lobby
lists, Senator Overman. said: Amy
man whose name has been mentioned
by several senators as being an agita-
tor against the tariff BILL"

ANOTHER AUTO
CLUB FORMED
Purpose Is Social Outings
and Reducing Cost

AS means of securing automobile
supplies at a reduced cost and for
the purpose of holding social OUT
ings, a number of Danish automobile
owners in this city and vicinity have
formed the Danish Automobile Club
of Perth Amboy. Several meetings
have been held, officers have been
elected and organization plans were
perfected at a session in the real
estate offices of Hans Nielsen, at t96
Smith street, last night.
The officers of the club are: c. G.
Christensen, president; Morgan F..
Larsen, vice president; Emil Koyen,
| treasurer; Hans Nielsen, secretary.
The first meeting to organize was
| held May 28 in Dana hall. The club
was then formed. It's object is to
reduce the cost of automobile sup
plies and accessories to its members
by purchasing direct from supply
houses and thereby eliminating the
middleman's profits. 1t is also in
tended that the members assemble
Sundays, holidays and during other
times devoted to recreation to take
automobile trips.
Secretary Nielsen is sending out
notices to Danish autoists in this
section in an effort to have them join
to swell the membership of the club
to the largest amount possible.
