FORDNEY TARIFF MEASURE CALLED
 IN HOUSE TODAY
TaepubIioan A. p. Leased Wirel


 WASHINGTON. Dec. 2f-The Ford nev emergency tariff measure, de- -.-a.f tc pr6tcct some 20 odd farm nroducts by virtually stopping their importation through heavy duties, will be called up in the house tomorrow under a special rule giving 1t right of way and limiting debate.
 Although a hard fight is expected, proponents of the bill declared tonight it's passage by the house was certain. Its fate, however, in the senate is re- Earled as somewhat doubtful.
 Tn the first test vote today advo- cates of the special tariff legislation won a signal victory by adopting 2O6 70 16 a motion to suspend the business of calendar Wednesday so as to bring fhc bin to a vote tomorrow before adiournment. There will be no oppor- tunity to include other articles by amendment
 The bill was denounced in the house today as special class legislation" by Representative Madden, Republican of Illinois. who declared that it's "unwis- dom must be manifest to everybody. %
 The purpose of the measure, Mir. Madden said was to legislatc on a few articles and to eliminate from consideration many other articles in the hands of thousands of dealers. The only other reference to it on the floor was by Representative Long worth. Republican of Ohio. who said it was needed to save important ag- ricultural interests from stark and certain ruin"

ARDMORE, Okla.,Dec. .21-At a point along the international border between the United States and Mexico, not far from Fl Paso, Clara Barton Smith, sought on a charge of murder in con- nection with the fatal shooting of Jake l.. Bamon here, will surrender to Sher- if Buck Garrett of Carter county, late tomorrow, according to an announce ment here tonight by James H. Math- CTS of the law firm of Mathers and COakley, retained as counsel for Miss Smith.
 If Miss Smith surrenders. a search for her that has become nation wide will be ended
 It became known here today that Sheriff Garrett, accompanied by Charles Coakley, attorney, had left for some point in Texas early today but a veil of secrecy was thrown about their departure and not until announcement was made later in the day by MT. Mathers, was it definitely known they had gone to El Paso. In a statement concerning the departure of the sheriff and attorney, Mir. Mathers said they had left for Fl Paso upon receipt of advices stating that Miss smith desired to surrender.
 The two men passed through Fort Worth, Texas, late today and were eX- pected 10 arrive m the vicinity Of Fl Paso late tomorrow. MT. Mathers said tonight the surrender would not take place in Fl Paso but a few miles this sidc" of the city. He declined to com ment further as to the location.
 Preparations already have been made here for Miss Smith 10 return for trial on the charge of murder that was filed against her following the death of Mir IIamOn Nov 26. Preliminary conver- sations on the matter of bond for Miss

LONDON. Dec. 21-The< Irish home rule bill, as slightly modified by the house of lords. was adopted by the house of commons today. The mea- sure now needs only the royal sigma . ture to become a law.
 The measure will be effective at the discretion of the government at any time within three and one-half years. The government reserves the priv ilege of applying the law when the op- perfume moment arrives.
 The home rule bill as it finally emerged from parliament today ready for the royal assent is not funda- mentally different from the measure the government first presented Months of discussion and efforts to amend in both houses resulted in cer- tain safeguards being added, which it's adherents believed will make it more acceptable to the Irish people.
 Its critics. however, still maintain that it will not be accepted by South Ireland, and in this connection it is re- called that Arthur Griffith, Sim Fein leader, sad some weeks after the bill was introduced that there probably were not ten influential men in Ire land who had even talked the trouble to read it. The bills critics argue that the events of the past few months have not served to change the Sim F'ein attitude that they will not set up the government suggested by the imperial parliament.
 The bill as presented did not pro- vide an alternative if either Ulster or the South, or both. declined to ac- cept it within three and a half years the measures automatically dies So far as the section refusing to accept it, is concerned.

 Senator Poindexter also took occa- sion to urge the selection of a west ern man as secretary of the interior, suggesting that the appointment might well be given to Governor elect Joseph M.

Women Say British Government Cause
 Of Irish Trouble
TRepublican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-An ar raignment of the coalition government for what was described as tits lack of sincerity in its policy toward Ireland, was presented today by two English women to the commission of the Com mittee of One Hundred Investigating the Irish question.
 Miss Ellen c. Wilkinson of Man chester, one of ten women who inves- tigated conditions in Ireland, declared that if a referendum were taken 1t would be found that the mass of Brit ish opinion was not behind the gov- ernment in it's present policy toward
 Ireland" Mrs, Annot E. Robinson, also of Manchester, joined her in the declaration that while the British pub lie hardly was ready to accept the Sim Fein plan of an Irish republic can be won yet if the government adopts 3 sincere policy. Both women indicated their belief that the dominion home rule would prove the final solution oi the Irish question.
 Little scraps of nations are opposed by the English as inviting struggles be- tween masters Miss Wilkinson said adding that the fear of other powers using Ireland for military bases prob- ably would prevent the English people from willingly accepting the complete severance of Ireland from the United Kingdom.
 Both women told of the burning oi homes and the destruction of property in Ireland. "While English opinion is becoming more aroused to the needs oi proper policy in Ireland" Miss VII kinson said. it has been hard for us to believe that our men were commit ting the crimes with which they were accused. I had 9 brother in the mill- tary service who was stationed for . time in Ireland"

 Miss Wilkinson described reprisals by the military in Cork which she said she witnessed in october.

This phase of Mir.

 Chairman Calder later recounted Ia part of Mir. Cushing's statement. saying that no names would be made public until investigation of the charges were completed. Certain officials. it was said Cushing testified, were able te
 obtain information as to communities
 where shortage conditions were par i ticularly feared and possessed informa tion as to the effect of priority orders obtained on information for the fur nlshfng of coal cars. These officials
 were also said to have information as to coal in transit, and to have been able
 to obtain supplies which could be di- verted to more lucrative markets. One "poof' mentioned by Cushing. Senate, Calder said, involved 450.000 tons. while
 other operations are said to have beer intimated. The government officia
 named by Cushing was said by the wit
