EMERGENCY BILL
Will Be VETOED
Underwood Tells Senate He, Has
Presidential Assurance
Bill Will Be Killed.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 14.-Develop-
ments centering around tariff legisla-
tion came fast in congress today. They
included:
Declaration by Minority Leader I'm
derwood in the senate that he had re-
ceived assurance that President Will
son would veto the Fordney emer-
gency tariff bill not by a mere with
holding of his signature but with a
comprehensive statement giving his
reasons. coupled with a finanl attack
on republican congressional policies.
Announcement by Senator McCumb-
er. republican, North Dakota, that a
vote on the Fordney bill probably
would be obtained tomorrow night.
Statement by Chairman Fordney of
the house ways and means committee
making definite the intention of re-
publican leaders to press legislation
revising the permanent tariff through
the extra session before attempting
consideration of taxation questions.
The Fordney bill was pulled out of
its ngeonhole for several hours of
debate late in the day. Nothing came
Of II. however, although ii had been
expected that a vote would be had on
the amendment of Senator Smoot, re-
publican. Utah, changing the import
rates on sugar from those accepted
by the senate finance committee.
senator Underwood was reticent
about his assurance of a presidential
veto. The statement of the minority
leader. however. was the cause of
speculation among senators on both
sides Of the tariff question. 1t was
generally accepted that as a result OF
the white house attitude. the demo-
Gratis were more than willing to let
the measure go to a vote where all
senator's records could be preserved.
At any rate the session today gave
no evidence of the parliamentary jock
ewing and delay which characterized
the earlier debates on tarin.

SYRACUSE, N.Y., Feb. 1A-Con-
tinuous Improvement in production is
necessary for the advancementIof civ
ilization, national progress, better hu-
man relations and higher standards of
living, Herbert Hoover declared in an
address here tonight before the con-
vention of the American Engineering
council.
American industry including agri-
culture, he said is at present running
firm 80 to 40 per cent below capacity
production. Cooperation between in
dustries and with labor and govern
ment was cited as a means for guar
anteeing an increase which would be
certain even if it is SLOW"
The danger of over-supply as a lin
lifting factor in production was dis
missed as without proper foundation"
The speaker added there is no such
thing as over production.
''The commodities of services pro-
duced by the whole nation he con-
tinued. ARE capable of absorption by
the whole nation if they are of the
right character. When 10 men or 10O.-

There is no limit to the increase of
living standards except the limitations

DISCOVER PLOT
OVERTHROW
Governments of France, Spain
and Italy to Be Involved
in Communist Plot.
SOVIETS ARE ORGANIZED
Money Transmitted Through
American Transportation
Company Headed in Paris.
(Ry Associated Press)

PARIS. Feb. 1.-THE overthrow of
the bourgeois" governments of Spain,
Italy and France is outlined in docu-
ments seized after a thorough search
today following upon the discovery of
widespread communist plot. The
date fixed by the communists for this
event was May l. 1921.
The contemplated arrest of two
communist members of the chamber
of deputies, alleged proof against
whom Judge Jousselin has delivered
to NJ. Marraud, minister of the inte-
rior, seems to have brought the French
to a realization of the Importance
of the attempt against the security
of the state.
Discoveries made by the police of
Barcelona and Milan show that the
plot included the three European
Latin countries. Transmission of
funds was effected through an Amer
lean financial organization with Euro
peap headquarters in Paris and
branches in Berlin and Vienna.
Soviets have been organized
throughout France with Brest as
headquarters, according to the police
ready to take over the railways. banks
and transpcTtations and all civil serv-
ice. The plot appears to have been
organized without the knowledge of
NJ. Cachin. leader of the French com
munist party, against whom the police
say they will not demand the lifting
of parliamentary immunity.
The discovery of checks emanating
from Berlin and paid through an
American transportation company ap-
pears to have caused revulsion Of
feeling in French p seaf and official
circles, and also among the working
