ATLANTIC CITY, Nj, April IS
Special tariff legislation to assure
the United States commercial pros
perity" was urged by Judge Marion
court of appeals at the convention of
the United States Chamber of Com
merce today.
The government must arm and
equip it's administrative forces. he
said. with every possible instru-
mentality of commercial defense and
exchange. We should not be misled
by sentiments of hrotherly love and
international lihera!ity.
CondemninG the present tariff ralu-
alton basis. Judge Devries urged a
special duty to meet our trade re-
quirements.
4 Tariff protection for agriculture
WAS dema nded by Harvey J. Scome.
agriculturist. of Sidell. III.
The greatest help that can be
given to agricultural industry" said
MIR. Scome. is the building of the
deep waterway from the great lakes
TO the Atlantic. ena bling the farmer
to market his products in foreign
, countries and also along our own sea-
boards at much lower freight rate
than at present"
Alba e. Johnson. president of the
Pennsylvania State Chamber of Com
merce, urged that tariff laws he
framed with the view Of protecting
the farmer. the railroad. the work
man in the field. mine and factory.
Solution of the governments financial
situation was offered by George w.
Hodges of New York. by having Con-
gress authorize at once consolidated
or refunding loan to an amount approx
imately equal to the existing outstand-
ing long and short time Indebtedness

1T will relieve the situation said
Mr.. Redfield. IF. in any such tariff as
we find it necessary to adopt. bargain
ing features are introduced so that we
may have quid pro quo to offer to a
business friend SO that We may not
say with one hand Keep out of here
and with the other grasp for his busi-
ness
Anything that introduces the principle
OF guarded flexibility into tariff enact
ment must relieve the tension due to
what otherwise might be a prohibitory
law We should make it clear to the
world that while we must. of course.
care for ourselves. We should do it in a
spirit which does not ignore others.
Would Not Isolate United States.
THE United States cannot afford to
isolate itself from the rest of the
world, but must cooperate with other
countries on a non-political basis" to
restore stable business conditions. A.
C. Bedford. chairman of the board of
idirectors of the Standard Oil Com
5pany of New Jersey. and Willis p.
Booth. vice president of the Guaranty
Trust Company, New York. told the
chamber last night. They pointed out

abnormal conditions in the world.

Plays That Puzzle
by BILLY EVANS

There was one man out and run
ners on first and third. The batsman
struck at the pitch and hit foul fly,
which the catcher caught near the
grandstand. The runners held their
bases. The runner on first was a fast
man. Noticing the catcher had his
back to the playing field as he caught
the ball, the runner on first started
for second the moment the catch was
completed. Turning instantly, the
catcher made a hurried throw to sec
ond which went wild, the runner on
third scoring and the other going to
third. Things happened around the
plate in the meantime. The umpire
ruled the catcher had slightly inter
fered with the batsman as he swung
at the ball. Having made such a de-
cision. what was the status of the
batsman and base runners?
Balk and Interference.
When the umpire ruled the catcher
interfered with the batsman, the
batsman was entitled to first base.
even though the ball was caught. The
runner on third was entitled to score
but the runner on first was entitled
only to second. The act of the catch
er created a balk and an interference
the interference emitting the bats
man TO first, and the baik emitting him
runners to advance a base.
