McCOMBS ARK. VISITOR
Chairman of Democratic National
Committee Addressed Bankers at
Meeting in Little Rock.

Little Rock, Ark, April 1.-THE
new tariff and currency laws were
praised by William F. McCombs. the
chairman of Democratic National
Committee, who was the guest of
honor at BANQUET of the Arkansas
Bankers Association tonight.
Speaking of the new tariff law, Mr..
McCombs said, "The law as enacted
has effected a general reduction in
duties and yet this enactment has
occasioned no serious diturbance to
business. The bill demonstrated that
privilege which languored in the in
viting shades of protection should
be suppressed and at the same time
the country should take fresh hope
and have new impulse toward a
greater prosperity"
Mr.. McCombs declared the new cur
rency law was the most important
piece of legislation enacted in the
last quarter century. "The result
will be to bring closer together sup
ply and demand upon sound eco
nomic basis and the adjustment of
artificial stimulation and depression.
The transition has been made without
an economic disturbance of business
and credits have not been shaken or
prosperity impaired. AS in the case
of the tariff lepiS q tion II has been ac
eomplished by slow and careful re-
view of all the facts"
Mr.. McCombs said it was too early
to discuss the possibility of his be-
coming a candidate for United States
senator from New York. He will
leave tomorrow to spend several days
at his boyhood home in Hamburg,

Hendricks Declines Offer Of the Cub

According to a story from Indian
apOlis, President Thomas of the Cubs
was in that city yesterday in an eff.
fort to get Jack Hendricks, pilot of
the Hoosiers of the American Asso-
citation, to take charge of the West
Side team.
Thomas was successful in remain
ing under cover, but he was not at

mitted he was out of town. Hen
bricks did not deny receiving the Of
fer, but said he would stick to the
Indianapolis team throughout the
length of his four-year contract
which he signed last spring.
In. doing this Hendricks shows
himself to be wise fellow. No man
ager can be a success on the West
Side as things are now conducted.
Past actions lead to the belief that
negotiations must be entered into
with headquarters in Cincinnati be-
fore the ostehsible heads of the local
club can spend any money for play
ers. And by the time the underlings
have dug up the coin-if they ever

Rautenbusch was a sensation in the
