WILSON ASKS TARIFF BOARD
Presidents Plea Before U. 8. Chamber
Of Commerce AppIauded-says We
Need q Merchant Marine.

Washington. President Wilson told
the chamber OF commerce OF the Unit
ed States at their meeting here that
America needed real scientific tariff
board, and he thought It was going to
get It; that It needed a real merchant
marine, and that 1t was absolutely
necessary some beginning should be
made at once to get that, too, and that
had 1t not been for the effectiveness
OF the federal reserv law as q bust
mss preparedness measure there was
no telling that commercial disaster
would haAg xzshslned the United
States with The present war. or the
prospect for keeping the country at
peace, he said that while no immedi.
ate international crisis faced the ma.
ton, I'VE are merely holding trouble
at arms length"
The presidents reference to the tar
iff board and the MERCHANT marine
were greeted with tumultuous ap-
plause by members OF the chamber and
their friends at dinner closing the
organizations annual convention. His
reference to his western tour also
evoked a demonstration.
The president assailed the hardness
Of American business men in the past
to broaden their commercial vision be-
yond the boundaries of this country.
The war, he said, had thrust Amer
lea into the economic leadership of
the world" despite this. There were
many instrumentalities, however,
which America needed sorely, he said.
One of them related to the tariff.
I'VE ought to have real scientific
tariff board and think we are going
to have It," he said. He reiterated
his declaration that he had changed
his mind about the need Of this be-
cause world affairs had wholly altered
during the past is months. His great.
est difficulty, he thought, would be in
men for the board who were
both capable and non-partisan.

ROW OVER ARMED SHIPS
Americans VIII Be Warned Not To
Take Passage on Thenr-Enaland
viii File Protest.

Washington.-The United States will
adopt the suggestion of the German
government and warn Americans not
to take passage on armed merchant.
men.
Definite information that this is the
intention Of President Wilson and that
an announcement to this effect will
shortly be made by the state depart.
ment was forthcoming from an au.
thoritative source.
In diplomatic circles discussion cen.
tered on the probability OF the presI.
dent taking this course, and its in.
evitable consequences. Even the most
conservative opinion holds that the
resultant situation will involve this
country in controversy with Great
Britain which may easily prove to be
the most troublesome and embarass-
ing OF any the United States has yet
had to face.
No one conversant with the facts in
the case goes so far as to forecast
anything more serious growing out OF
the controversy than loss of foreign
trade. But that the United States
must expect to suffer seriously in this
respect If the German contention as
to armed merchantmen is upheld by
this government is considered inevita.
BILE by best informed statesmen.
This loss, it is pointed out, can be
inflicted on American commerce by re-
taliatory measures, which It must be
expected the allies will probably take.
II the United States prohibits the
clearance from its ports of armed
merchantmen the allies may be count
ed upon to reply by disseminating the
into American ports of all
kinds Of their merchantmen. Denied
the use Of allied merchantmen, which
now carry almost all the foreign trade
of the United States, the seriousness
Of the loss may easily be calculated

increase of 10000 over the present
strength OF the national guard. They
would form separate branch Of the

CONGRESS THANKS WILSON
House Military Committee In harmony
on Proposed Army Increase Plan
National Guard wilma

Washington.-A new note Of har
mony and cooperation on national de
Tense problems has been struck in the
house military committee as a direct
result Of the resignation OF Secretary
Garrison Il found expression in the
adoption Of resolution declaring the
committees appreciation Of the conf.
dence President Wilson reposed in It
and in the senate committee, as dis.
closed in his correspondence with Mr..
Garrison.
The non-partisan character Of the
feeling was emphasized by the fact
that the resolution was offered by Rep
resentative Kahn OF California, rank
ing Republican member of the COM
mittee.
Members Of both the congressiona;
committees declared the war secre-
tary's withdrawal had brought out
sharply the presidents desire that con-
gress should work out its army prob
lens in Its own best judgment. despite
bis personal preference for the CONT
mental army scheme advocated by Mr..
Garrison and the army war college.
The net result. they agreed, was a clar-
ification Of the congressional atmos.
phere and the assurance Of support for
the bills from elements of both the
Democratic and Republican sides that
had heretofore been counted against
the measures.
In substance, II is believed, the bills
to be drafted will represent an effort
to make effective virtually all of the
plans Of the war department with the
exception that liberalization of the ma
tional guard will be sought as a sub
stitute for the continental army plan.
Both house and senate committees
will take up the work Of drafting the
measures at once,
The house bill, 1t is expected. will
provide for the payment Of national
guardsmen who comply with all regu-
lations laid down by congress on a
basis sufficiently liberal to insure the
of approximately 100000
men, the ultimate size Of the proposed
continental army. To make certain the
availability for federal use in time of
war or great emergency of all men
who participate in this payment, the
plan contemplates authorizing the
president to draft them into volun,
.eer army.

Tennessee and Mississippi citizens to
be held here Feb. II and IS will take
the initial step in selecting the route
for the proposed Jefferson Davis High,

counties through which the proposed
routes are located, it is expected that
the meeting will be attended by many
thousand citizens from that state.
The highway plan, which is fostered
by the Memphis Business Mems Asso-

the president of the Southern Confed.
eracy. For this reason the Daughters
of the Confederacy are taking large
amount Of interest in 1t.
The chief fight for the highway, 1t
is claimed, is between the Delta
route and the Central Mississippi
route" At the Memphis end of the
highway, connection will be made with
the Fulton-Memphis Highway.
