SEN. M'CUMBER
MARION GUEST
Finances and Farm Tariff Dis
cussed by Harding and
Westerner.

MARION. Ohio, Dec. Ex-senator Por-
ter J. McCumber, North Dakota, found
a wide range of subjects open to him
when he conferred today with Senator
Harding. Senator McCumber is ranking
member at present of the Senate Finance
Committee, which has in charge the new
tariff legislation vigorously opposed by
Democratic members Of Congress.
Possibilities OF a Democratic filibuster,
as indicated by Senator Harrison aad
others, were discussed fully by the
President elect and his senatorial~-col-
league, it was said. Senator Harding,
in his Minneapolis speech during the
campaign advocated strongly a tariff for
the protection of farm products and is
known to be strongly interested in the
pending legislation.
Senator McCumber also is a member
Of the Agricultural Affairs Committee and
is In a position to give expert advice on
the probable action In the Senate on
appropriations measures.
An indication OF Senator Harding's at
titude towards Democratic obstructive
tactics may be CLEANED from an editorial
appearing today ia the Marion Star, OF
which he is editor.
The Star points out what it declares
is the manifest absurdlty of a system
which permits a defeated party to OBJ
stru< or delay measures favored by the
successful party for months after cleo
tion.
Oscar S. Strauss Of New York. former
Secretary of Commerce and Labor in the
Roosevelt Cabinet. came to Marion to
discuss with Senator Harding both the
financial situation and the complications
now imminent in Europe. Mr.. Strauss
has been regarded as a possible ambas-
sador to Germany.

lawyers who have hoastcd OF the incra

him at about the same ration in which

with the power to appoint 4 successor

"amicablc" arrangements were reported
to he possibility
with Warren T. McCray exercising
that power there Is considerable doubt
OF the ability Of the "old crowd to get
one of their own members on the Grim
inaI bench
Safety first is the slogan a the crowd
that would like TO see Conins in the
city hall Their love for the asphalt
and other contracts j. not nearly as
great as their fear of what a real crimi-
nal judge might do TO their carefully laid
avenues of revenue, and II IL certain
that they will not permit Collins 10 re
lnqulsh the bench from which he has
handed out justice until they know who
might succeed him.
In the meanwhile, it is evident from
the manner In which the criminal court
Is not functioninE that there is more
politics than anything else on its cal
endar.
Recently there have been n number of
instances In the police court where men
on bond have been rearrested for boot
Logging before their appealed eases were
tried I'm the Criminal Court.
II is not customary for the police to
catch bootleggers so frequently When
they succeed In getting bootlegger the
second or third time there IS usually suf-
ficient Of an interval elapsinc between
the arrests for court to try an appeal
But when the political pot is boiling
the subsequent arrests sometimes precede
the determination OF previous eases, as
has happened frequently in the last
month.
There are large number of blind
tiger cases pending on appeal from the
City Court to the Criminal Court These
cases could he tried expeditiously and
all ought to be cleaned up before Claris
Adams relinquishes the prosecutors Of
flee, in which he has been such signal
failure.
But they viii not be.
And therein lies one OF the reasons
why the good citizens of Indianapolis
will not be pleased with a campaign for
mayor conducted from the Criminal Court
bench.

On the Grodovic side, the regulars had

deserted stretch in which machine guns

From refugees it was learned that

CONFLICT or
AUTHORITY.

The third question is one Of a conflict
Of state and Federal authority and in
wolves possible rate changes indirectly.
Seventeen States have refused to allow
interstate rates to go as high ms tte
Interstate Commerce Commission tried
to fix them and appealed to the courts to
uphold them Railroad attorneys. argu-
ing before the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, have declared that If the States
win out the rates set last August viii
not bring in as much rs expected and
so the 6 per cent return guaranteed the
roads probably would not be realized
even under favorable conditions
The fourth question is brought for
ward by railroad labor organizations
which recently launched charges that the
railroad executives were not making ev-
cry effort toward economy in operation.
Tbe brotherhoOds also are trying to have
continued adjustment machinery created
during Federal control, an effort which is
opposed by many employers.

SLOW
PROGRESS IN
LEGISLATION
New Year to Find Congress
Divided on Nations Funda-
mental Problems.
TRADE RELATIONS LEAD

WASHINGTON. Dec. 2S.-The dawn of
the new year Will find Congress still
wrestling with the fundamental prob
lens confronting the country taxation,
the tariff and foreign trade-with little
prospect of satisfactory solution be-
ing found for either before March 1, it
was predicted today
In the judgment of Republican and
Democratic leaders alike, all three prob--
lens viii rise to vex the Harding ad
ministration aud the new Congress as
much as the difficult question Of foreign
relations.
1t is conceded by both sides that the
omnibus tariff bill passed by the House
recently viii not pass the Senate unless
it is amended materially. \ number of
commodities inserted in it by majority
of the House will be stripped from it In
the Senate. Although its supporters
claim TO have enough votes to jam it
through the upper chamber, even they
admit it IS in grave peril from threat
ened amendments and debate
TRADE BALANCE
IMPORTANT PROBLEM.
Beyond the emergency tariff policy It
involves, Senate leaders declare, lies the
more important one of maintaining the
eountry's trade balance on an even keel,
embracing, IS it does, the far reaching
subject of exchange
Senators opposed to it. like Hitchcock,
Democrat Of Nebraska, declare it is i'm
possible to construct even temporary
tariff barriers to shut out exports to this
country if American producers are to
find an outlet for exports to foreign
countries
international trade they contend. I'M
less conducted on terms Of barter. is al
ready SO hampered under existing ex-
change conditions that there low exist
economic barriers sufficiently impenetra-
bic without the situation being made
worse by the erection OF tariff barriers.
EXCHANGE RATES
QUESTION Up.
It is an omen secret in Congress that
one Of the first tasks the Harding ad-
ministration will have to bend to is the
solution of the exchange problem. An
other vital question involving foreign
trade and the merchant marine, is that
of n complete and official restoration Of
trade relations between this country and
Russia and between this country and the
central powers. This. OF course, involves
the replacement of this country on an
adequate peace basis, II is pointed out
There is a well-founded report that
Great Britain will suggest to President
elect Harding, as soon a he enters the
White House, that he summon world
economic conference, to be held at Wash
iugtOn for the purpose Of devising ma
chinery for the movement Of international
trade and the readiustment Of exchange
rates.
