county citizens as a teacher in earl

farm bureau more recently. He is
now the president of the Richmond
Farm Loan association, the local
branch of the federal farm loan
system.
False doctrines" said Mr. Bald

and other citizens, and they have in

COTTON DUTIES ARE
REFUSED BY HOUSE
IN DECISIVE VOTE
q tBy Associated Press)

WASHINGTON, July 21.-Compen-
satory duties on textiles manufactured
from long staple cotton were denied
by the house today in line with its
action yesterday in refusing compen-
satory duties on leather products.
The vote of 122 to so, represented a
coalition of Republicans with Demo
Gratis, to defeat the proposition.
A vote on the Fordney bill was
scheduled for late in the day with
passage regarded as assured in view
of the heavy Republican majority
which thus far has supported the
measure as a whole. There were
prospects of a bitter last ditch fight,
however, over some of the contested
sections of the bill which will be vot-
ed on again before the final o. K
is placed on the bill, Whether hides
and long staple cotton shall carry
tax and petroleum shall be free as
previously voted in committee OF the
whole, and whether the government
shall employ a three year embargo
against dye importations, were ques-
tions to be voted on finally.
Kill Shoe Tariff
The house late yesterday killed
proposed tariff on shoes and other
leather goods which would have on
set the increase in the price or raw
products occasioned by the duty on
hides. No further action can be TAX
en- on that under the special rule, and
the free hide advocates expect to re-
verse the action which put tariff on
hides.
